After Kentucky’s overtime defeat to an unranked Seton Hall squad in Madison Square Garden on Saturday, the Cats slipped to No. 19 in the latest Associated Press college basketball top-25 poll.

It’s the Cats’ second big drop of the season after being ranked No. 2 in the preseason poll and falling to No. 10 after the season opening blowout loss to Duke. Kentucky had inched up to ninth in last week’s poll after a string of victories over lesser opponents.

This week mark’s the lowest UK has been ranked since it ended the regular season last year at No. 23. The 2017-18 Cats were also regarded highly in the preseason at No. 5 before eventually sliding out of the poll in late January.

It hurts me to think this but I see this team slipping out of the polls by the end of December.

I agree. I don't think was can go undefeated over our next three games. But I sure hope i'm proven wrong!
