Ohio head coach Tim Albin met with the media Monday to preview this weekend’s matchup against Kentucky.

Albin praised Kentucky’s defense and head coach Mark Stoops.

“Huge challenge on the road,” Albin said about playing in Lexington. “An SEC school, they’re big everywhere and physical. Their defense…I don’t see a weakness. Without breaking them down, I don’t see a weakness in their defense. We’re going to have huge matchup problems.”

Albin said Kentucky is lucky to have Stoops and should build a statue of him outside the stadium.

“They’re lucky to have him. He’s a pillar there,” said Albin.
