Can Kentucky beat the Tennessee Volunteers in Knoxville?
Kentucky is set to head to Knoxville for a massive game between two teams who don't like one another very much.
Tennessee won the first meeting between the two teams in Rupp Arena, taking down Kentucky 103-92 thanks to 26 points from both Zakai Zeigler and Josiah-Jordan James.
In the first meeting, Kentucky guard Rob Dillingham had his career high, scoring 35 points while going 14-20 from the field and 6-8 from deep.
If Kentucky wants to win this basketball game, they need to find a way to slow Dalton Knecht like they did the first time but not let some of the other guys like Zeigler and James go off for a ton of points.
If the Wildcats are able to win this game in Knoxville, it will be huge for SEC Tournament and NCAA Tournament seeding.
This was the topic on the most recent version of the Wildcats Today Podcast as Andrew Stefaniak and Carson Nash broke down this game and talked about the win over Vanderbilt.
