Kentucky had a lot to like before the season started. Last season's national player of the year Oscar Tshiebwe returned, as did many pieces from a team that was a No. 2 seed last season.
And the season has been a big letdown for Kentucky. It hasn't been as bad as North Carolina, which is likely to go from No. 1 in the preseason to not in the NCAA tournament, but close.
Vanderbilt came into the SEC tournament on the wrong side of the NCAA tournament bubble and without 7-footer Liam Robbins, who is averaging 15 points per game. Robbins will miss the rest of the season with a leg injury.That's what made Friday night's loss even worse for Kentucky. Kentucky was terrible from the field despite facing a Vanderbilt team without its biggest interior defender. Kentucky took a quick 14-4 lead, but Vanderbilt controlled most of the game after that.
