What a series of emotions fans of both teams went through as Kentucky rallied to take a 2nd half lead, and Carolina rallied to get it back, and Kentucky rallied to tie the game and then the Luke Maye game-winner. It was enough to give even the calmest fan heart palpitations.
Video of Wildcats fans’ 4 second shift from utter joy to complete devastation was captured by Lexington news station WKYT.

You can’t help but feel bad for the Wildcat faithful, especially Carolina fans who know this feeling all too well.
