The UCLA Bruins (31-4) and the Kentucky Wildcats (31-5) are set for a classic battle of two historically prominent college basketball programs. Kentucky had another great season as well, winning the SEC regular season and conference tournament once again. Kentucky coach John Calipari had this to say of the anticipated matchup:"There has to be so much emotion to these next games. I don't know of a more fun basketball team to watch when we're clicking and we've had a lot of games where we've been clicking. UCLA also has three wins against Top 25 teams, while Kentucky has four wins, but Kentucky played more ranked teams in the 2016-17.
