Surging Kentucky firing on all cylinders

Kentucky coach John Calipari is doing his best to temper expectations even as the Wildcats have waltzed through the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament.

The Wildcats dominated Wake Forest 90-60 on Saturday to move into the round of 16 for the first time since 2007. Kentucky has looked so impressive the Wildcats seem to be the team to beat after top-seeded Kansas fell to Northern Iowa.

Calipari brushed that talk aside, saying the Wildcats are still a group of talented by largely inexperienced players. Still, Kentucky's dominance so far has certainly raised the bar.

Actress Ashley Judd, a Kentucky native, watched the win over Wake Forest and says this version of the Wildcats looks a lot like the 1996 national championship squad.
