Lots of good teams losing by big margins?

Auburn lost a game by 30 points and Gonzaga lost their last game by 40 points now Kentucky loses by 35 points. Whats up with all these blow outs and then the team that gets blown out comes back and plays well again.

That’s an astute observation and btw this is happening a lot more in recent NBA as well. A lot of that has to do with offensive efficiency. Basketball, in its current state, has been somewhat optimized and blowouts are more common. Unfortunately, we have been blown out multiple times, not just once.

Unfortunately, UK is nowhere near a good team, so this doesn’t apply to them.

UK is 0-4 against teams where they don’t have an overwhelming talent advantage. And only 1 of those 4 games was competitive. That should be alarming to anyone that claims to love the program.
