Kentucky’s win over Purdue was fun. Like, really, really, really fun. You don’t need me to tell you that. Sure, the 78-65 victory was just an exhibition, but does anyone really care about that right now? The Cats ran the No. 1 Boilermakers off the floor.

There are so many highlights to choose from tonight, so kudos to the UK Sports Video staff for keeping their video down to three minutes. Jasper Johnson is in a lot of them after his big debut, as is birthday boy Malachi Moreno. Jasper led Kentucky in scoring with 15 points, followed by Otega Oweh and Trent Noah with 10 each. Ten Kentucky players scored, and even though Collin Chandler only had two points, he was Mark Pope’s MVP because of his team-high +15 in plus/minus efficiency.

Hit play below to relive the win. Feel free to put it on loop.
