1. December 9, 2009: North Carolina vs. Kentucky – Kentucky wins 68-66 and moves further ahead in the quest to be the first team with 2,000 wins. Patrick Patterson scored 19 points and grabbed 7 rebounds while John Wall hit two free throws at the end of the game to put it out of reach for the Tarheels.
2. December 21, 2009: Drexel vs. Kentucky – Kentucky wins 88-44 and becomes the first team to reach 2,000 wins. Although the game wasn’t the most exciting nor action packed, the end result puts this one in our top three. Demarcus Cousin and Patrick Patterson both finish with 18 points in this historic win.
3. February 13, 2010: Tennessee vs. Kentucky – Kentucky win 73-62 thanks to the 24 point performance from John Wall. Tennessee effectively shutdown the inside play of Cousins and Patterson but couldn’t stop the guards. Eric Bledsoe scored 16 points all in the second half to boost the Wildcats past the Vols.
