As Ben Roberts points out, Kentucky hasn’t graced the finals of the SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament since 2018.
Under John Calipari, the Wildcats have won the tournament six times — 2010, 2011, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and 2018.
The Cats have twice lost in the championship game under Cal — 2012 and 2014.
With this year’s annual tourney tipping off Wednesday at Bridgestone Arena on Broadway right there in downtown Nashville, here’s a chart detailing UK’s game-by-game results in the postseason affair under Calipari.
