Kentucky is set to play the Mississippi State Bulldogs on the road in what is sure to be a really good basketball game. Mississippi State is number 11 in defense, according to KenPom, while Knetucky's offense is number eight.
Kentucky's defense and Mississippi State's offense compare pretty closely in the KenPom rankings, so this game will come down to how can the Bulldog's elite defense slow the Wildcat's high-scoring offense.
Kentucky will need to get a lot out of their guards in this game, and Ugonna Onyenso will need to try and slow Tolu Smith down low. In the team's last meeting, Smith had 26 points.
Andrew Stefaniak and Carson Nash of the Wildcats Today Podcast discussed these things, plus Kentucky's blowout win over the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Stefaniak and Nash feel the Wildcats will beat Mississippi State, but this could be a close one, and the team needs to be focused on this game after the emotional win over the Crimson Tide.
