Kentucky basketball returns home after a massive road win over Florida to play the Missouri Tigers.

On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe previews Kentucky basketball vs Missouri basketball. The Tigers have slightly underachieved so far this season and struggle to put things together on the defensive end. Dawe breaks down what he's seen out of the squad - Dennis Gates' team operates similarly to last season just based on numbers but is slower-paced and lacks legitimate options outside of Sean East II.

Can the Tigers, who are very experienced but undersized, outplay the Kentucky Wildcats in Rupp? Dawe explains his thoughts on the matchup, what he expects from Kentucky's guards, and gives a final score prediction.

Dawe also gives an update on Bracketology and the NET rankings. UK is all the way up to a No. 2 seed now and cracked the top 20 of the NET. How many more Quad 1 opportunities are left on the schedule?
