Kentucky will look to respond to its wake-up call suffered in Knoxville by taking on the Alabama Crimson Tide at Rupp Arena on Saturday.
A rematch of Kentucky’s 66-55 victory over Alabama in Tuscaloosa back on February 4, the Tide have won three straight, including at Ole Miss, vs. Arkansas and vs. Mississippi State. It’s a stretch of impressive play that pushed the Tide back into the rankings, coming in at No. 25 this week in the latest AP Poll.
Sitting at 17-9 on the year and 7-6 in conference play, Alabama is averaging 80.
