New Features This Season
This season's WILDCAT TIPOFF will include several continuing features which have not been a part of our program in the past.
In each issue Wildcat fans will be able to read an account of the last meeting between Kentucky and their current opponent. For example in tonight's program we recount Kentucky's loss to Wisconsin on December 31, 1968 in Chicago.
The TIPOFF offers a column, "This Week's SEC", which lists every team in the SEC and their opponents for the current week.
The third innovation in this season's program will be a column authored by "The Voice of the Wildcats", Cawood Ledford. In this issue's "Cawood Reflects", Ledford muses about the upcoming season.
WILDCAT TIPOFF, the official Lexington Center program for University of Kentucky basketball, is published by Lexington Productions, Inc.
