Kentucky basketball will play Davidson in the NCAA Tournament South region

ST. LOUIS — Kentucky basketball is headed West.

The Wildcats earned a No. 5 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will play Davidson on Thursday in the South region in Boise, Idaho. The game will tip off at 7:10 p.m. and be televised by CBS, per an announcement Sunday night.

"Right now, it's March," said Kevin Knox, Kentucky's leading scorer. "Everyone should be approaching this like we're going to win every game from now on and that's how we've all got to approach it. If we do that, it's going to be hard to beat us."

Kentucky enters the Big Dance after winning the Southeastern Conference Tournament and seven of its past eight games.
