Sources Say is LIVE to preview Kentucky's March Madness run

by:Jack Pilgrim•about 9 hours

It’s time, Big Blue Nation! Mark Pope’s first run in the NCAA Tournament is HERE, Kentucky set to take on Troy in the first round to open the event on Friday in Milwaukee. Can the Wildcats take down the 14-seed Trojans to earn Pope’s first March Madness win of his coaching career?

How about the rest of the path? If UK can get past the first game, is there a road to the Final Four in the team’s future? What are the keys to a run? What would solidify an early exit for the Cats?

So much is on the line this week, both good and bad. On one side, it’s a chance for Kentucky to get to its second weekend since 2019. On the other, well, that streak can be extended, potentially losing three first-round matchups in four years.

Sources Say closes the book on the SEC Tournament and the highs and lows of Nashville and turns toward Milwaukee. Tune in LIVE below:
