JUST IN: Mark Pope finally explains what led to Kentucky basketball’s blowout home loss to Auburn…

Mark Pope’s Kentucky Wildcats suffered a major setback Saturday afternoon, losing 94-78 at home to No. 1 Auburn.

The Tigers clinched at least a share of the SEC regular-season championship with the win.

That became an outright league title when Alabama lost on a buzzer-beater at Tennessee later Saturday.

Auburn led by double digits for the entire second half of its win over Kentucky. The game’s final 16-point margin of victory was tied for the sixth-worst loss that UK has ever suffered inside Rupp Arena.
