The past few weeks have been less-than-great for Kentucky Wildcats basketball. Three straight losses at Rupp Arena have coaches looking for answers, and fans demanding better. They’ve fallen from the top ten in the rankings to barely hanging in the top 25 at all. On Tuesday night, Kentucky will look to right the ship in a match-up with the Ole Miss Rebels.
The Rebels come into the game with an 18 – 5 record overall, but losers of two straight games. Like the Wildcats, they’ve struggled against the good teams in the SEC, and are 5 – 5 in conference play. Ole Miss is currently 111th in scoring offense, with 76.4 points per game, and 167th on defense, giving up over 71 points per game.
Kentucky remains a top five offense in the country, scoring nearly 90 points per contest. Defensively, however, they’re one of the worst statistical defenses. They have also struggled to keep opposing teams off the boards and give up a lot of second chance points.
The Wildcats are favorites in this game, and they’ll try to avoid an unthinkable fourth straight loss at home. Here’s how to watch the game.
