We beat Notre Dame and the game is over and the score isn't going to change. The media has always made Notre Dame their untouchable team and doubt that will ever change.
Kentucky coach John Calipari didn’t back off his postgame comments after his team’s win over Notre Dame Saturday in the Midwest Region final despite being blasted nationally on social media for saying his team played “poorly” and would not say Notre Dame was the toughest foe the unbeaten Wildcats had faced.
“We played Texas A&M and they took us to double overtime and we were lucky to get to overtime. We played Mississippi in overtime and we were lucky to do that. Florida played us in a tough game on the road. I can go on and on. LSU had us beat down there,” said Calipari on the Final Four coaches teleconference Monday.
“I mean, to say that that was by far the toughest game, I could have lied (during the postgame TV interview) and said, ‘Oh, yeah, absolutely.’ But what I did say after the game was, Notre Dame played great. Then when I got up on the stage, I said, ‘Let's give them a hand for the great game that they played.’ Now, it really doesn't matter what I say, it could be construed however.”
