    Kentucky hit a 3 pt play last night with about 2 sec to go to tie the game at 61 and complete a 12 comeback and send the game into OT. However the Gators came up big in Ot and beat Kentucky 81-70.

    That was the Gators 7th straight win over Kentucky tying Notre Dame for the most consecutive wins over the Wildcats.

    Who would think that Notre Dame had ever beaten Kentucky 7 times in a row. I wonder how Kentucky fans feel about BillyG right now. They haven't really been very good this season so far, of course maybe he didn't inherit much talent so he'll get a pass for this season.

    I think ND beat UK only 6 times in a row and no team but Florida has beaten them 7 times in a row.

    I think they said the ND streak was back in the 30s.

    Nope, Notre Dame beat Kentucky 7 times in a row. It was a long time ago, but that was the record for consecutive wins of any team against Kentucky. We already held the streak in the SEC at 6.
