Kentucky needs to get back to forcing turnovers.

Until recently, forcing opponents into turnovers was one of Kentucky’s strengths. The Cats forced almost 13 turnovers per game through the first 14 games in SEC play; in the last three games, less than seven turnovers per game by the opposition. Tennessee turned the ball over only five times on Saturday, the second lowest number UK has forced all season long — the Duke game being the first at only four.
