Although the latest win over Mississippi State wasn't always pretty, it was enough for Kentucky to improve to 3-1 in SEC play an stay on track to contend for a regular-season title.
The Wildcats have been a bit of a disappointment so far considering they began the year on top of the preseason polls. Of course, much of the SEC has struggled along with them, and just one loss in conference is nothing to worry about.
Kentucky has enough talent to once again win the SEC, but it will have to come through in its toughest games against the best the conference has to offer.
