Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Kentucky Posted Dec 22, 2018 Kentucky simply played better in every phase of the game. The Wildcats earned their 80-72 win at the United Center. North Carolina was outrebounded for the first time this season, and that was a fairly appropriate description of how the game went. The Tar Heels were beaten on the defensive glass and were nearly doubled up on the offensive backboards. (GoHeels.com)
