Kentucky vs Missouri Game Preview

Why Kentucky Will Win

Missouri’s offense isn’t Tennessee’s.

Kentucky actually did a better job defensively than the 44-6 loss to the Vols might indicate – that’s looking DEEP for a positive in that – keeping the high-powered attack to 422 yards. It was only the second time all year the Vols didn’t get to 500.

For all of the good things Missouri is doing, the offense isn’t going off. It only got past 270 yards against Abilene Christian and Louisiana Tech, the offensive line allows way too many plays behind the line, and turnovers have been a massive issue until …

Why Missouri Will Win

The South Carolina game. That might have been the big pivot the program needed.

The Tigers went to the other SEC Columbia and came out with a sharp 23-10 win, getting a decent day out of the passing game and a brilliant day from the SEC’s third-best defense.

Florida and Kansas State were the only teams easily able to run against this bunch, and that’s because their quarterbacks took off – that’s not Will Levis.

Even with the possible No. 1 pick in the draft under center, the Kentucky offense isn’t going off – it only came up with 98 passing yards against Tennessee’s then second-worst pass defense in the nation.

The Wildcats are going to struggle to get to 100 yards on the ground, and …

What’s Going To Happen

Missouri can play Kentucky’s game – it’s great at slowing things down a bit and controlling the clock.

It’s going to be about the turnovers. Kentucky has given it up multiple times in five of the last six games, and Missouri has forced two takeaways in three of the last four games.

Can the Tigers keep the mistakes to a minimum after giving it up seven times against Florida and Vanderbilt? Kentucky doesn’t do enough to force turnovers.

Why Kentucky Will Win

Sooooo … what’s Kentucky doing right?

It’s been a disastrous season that had a little hope, and then it all went wrong over the last few weeks. However, the team is occasionally shooting well enough from the floor to be a problem, it’s seemingly rebounding everything, and it’s not bad at getting out on the perimeter and defending the three.

Missouri can’t hit from the outside on a regular basis and it doesn’t force a whole lot of mistakes. This is a flawed Tiger team that finds ways to win, but a hot day from the UK offense – like it was against LSU last week – can get this done.

The Wildcats just need to be anything but totally miserable shooting, but …

Why Missouri Will Win

Kentucky is totally miserable at shooting basketballs.

That’s a bit severe – it’s okay on the inside and when it can get on the move – but this team really, really can’t shoot from three, so it doesn’t.

Again, Missouri has problems, but it all seems to work, When it goes wrong it all goes off the rails, but Kentucky doesn’t have the ability to take advantage of the mistakes and the cold streaks like Mississippi State and Tennessee were able to a few weeks ago.

What’s Going To Happen

Neither team can shoot a lick from three with any semblance of consistency, but when Missouri is just okay from the outside, it wins.

It’ll be just okay from the outside, but it’ll pull away starting at the end of the first half with a good run. UK won’t have the ability to get back into it in the second.
