It may be a good game for awhile but in the end Cats win big.
The only school with more national championships than top-ranked Kentucky’s eight is UCLA with 11. On Saturday, the Wildcats and Bruins play for the first time in eight years in the second half of an impressive doubleheader in Chicago.
Kentucky (11-0) is the unanimous No. 1 team in the AP poll. The Wildcats are coming off an 84-70 win over No. 24 North Carolina, which is tied with Indiana for the third-most national championships at five each.
The Tar Heels play No. 12 Ohio State in the first game Saturday in Chicago, one of only two games all week matching Top 25 teams.
Three of Kentucky’s national titles (1996, 1998 and 2012) have come since UCLA won its last championship in 1995.
Every loss this season by UCLA (8-3) is against ranked teams — Oklahoma, North Carolina and Gonzaga on Saturday.
This will be the third time in their four meetings since 2006 that Ohio State and North Carolina are both ranked.
The last was five years ago at Madison Square Garden, when the Tar Heels won like they have in all three previous meetings.
