KSR's takeaways from Kentucky's crucial win at Florida

You couldn’t ask for a better start for Kentucky in Gainesville. Looking to make a statement on the road with a third consecutive Quad 1 victory, the Wildcats jumped out to an overwhelming 30-15 lead, shooting an impressive 66.7% to open the game (12-18) while outrebounding the Gators 12-5. Missing star forward Colin Castleton due to a broken hand, Florida had no answer for the Kentucky frontcourt, nor did it have the offensive juice to counter on the other end of the floor. A blowout was underway with minimal resistance from the home team.
