Season notes

[edit]

The team had a winning record in conference play for the first time since the 1967–68 Wildcats went 8–6.[2] The 10 conference wins was the most since the 1932–33 Wildcats.[3] The team was ranked in the AP Poll for the first time since the 2009–10 team.[4] The team's buzzer-beating 21st victory on March 1 against Michigan established a new school record for wins in a season.[5] The team earned the school's first NCAA tournament bid in school history, becoming the last team from a major conference to achieve the feat.[6]
