Halftime Thoughts: Justin Edwards has the hot hand as Kentucky leads Tennessee 33-29 at the half

Kentucky leads Tennessee 33-29 at the half.

Kentucky leads Tennessee 33-29 at the half thanks to Justin Edwards going for 13 points on 5-7 shooting. He was 3-4 from deep, helping Kentucky take a lead in the half. 

The issue in this game for the Wildcats has been the turnovers and Tennessee getting nine offensive rebounds. 

Rob Dillingham wasn't on the floor all that much due to a couple of early fouls from the Kentucky star. If he can stay out of foul trouble and get it going on the offensive side, it can help the Kentucky Wildcats stretch a lead in Knoxville. 

Ugonna Onyenso has been really good on defense and has already blocked two shots. If Kentucky can stop Dalton Knecht, who has 19 of Tennessee's 29 points and take care of the basketball, they can win this massive road win. 

Let's take a look at how to watch Kentucky's matchup with the Tennessee Volunteers.
