No. 6 Kentucky flying high ahead of first SEC road game at Georgia

Fresh off an impressive win over fellow top-10 team Florida in its Southeastern Conference opener, No. 6 Kentucky hits the road for the first time in league play on Tuesday when it travels to Athens to take on Georgia. The Wildcats (12-2, 1-0 SEC) topped the Gators 106-100 at home on Saturday, increasing their scoring mark to 90.2 points per game, second nationally only to No. 5 Alabama's 91.1. Winner in five of its last six games, Kentucky will look to earn its first victory at Georgia since January 2020. If there was any question about how first-year head coach Mark Pope would fare following John Calipari's tenure in Lexington, doubts have been put to bed so far.
