This isn’t the game to lose focus with wasted possessions and cheap fouls. The game will be electric. The crowd will go crazy with simple layups… there is no need to attempt the low percentage highlight reel stuff.
Beating a full squad Kentucky game would be great for team morale. We really need to win one of these big ones. We've been skirting by beating mediocre teams. Even our Quad 1 wins have been underwhelming. LSU was without their best point guard. UNC has had historically bad games this year. Miss St, are they even really a Q1. And Arizona was a nice win. Though we barely squeezed it out at home.
But beating UK at home would be nice to hang our hats on.
