Basketball Q&A: Kentucky Wildcats

While Auburn is coming off a big ROAD win, their 1st of the season, last night against Texas A&M, it’s time to turn the page and look ahead to Saturday and what a game this is going to be.

Saturday is a game that we’ve all been looking forward since the schedule was released back in August. Bill Walton has referred to this game as an “event for the ages.” Saturday’s game with the Wildcats is the first of two matchups this season, the sequel taking place Saturday February 23 in Lexington. Kentucky comes into Saturday’s matchup winners of 3 straight after their SEC opening loss to Alabama and their defense has been spectacular, giving up less than 50 in back-to-back games.
