Winning is in Kentucky's jeans By Ryan Hoots Sports Director, UntdWeStnd.com Lexington, KY - Some nights at Rupp Arena feel borrowed from another era. Not recreated, not manufactured, but borrowed. Saturday night against Tennessee was one of those. The kind of night where the building carries itself a little heavier. The banners loom closer, the noise seems to hit another decibel. Kentucky basketball doesn't always need help remembering who it is, but sometimes it gets a reminder anyway. This reminder came wrapped in denim this weekend. Kentucky walked onto the floor wearing throwbacks inspired by the 1996 national championship team, the most dominant group this program has ever produced. "The Unforgettables". Those uniforms weren't just nostalgia bait to fans, they were a challenge.....a standard. A quiet dare to live up to the weight stitched into the fabric. Of course, timing mattered. Thirty years removed from that title run, the Wildcats weren't celebrating history, they were honoring what it means to wear that sacred piece of cloth.
