Highlights, box score & MVP from Kentucky’s win over EKU

The Kentucky Wildcats are now 2-0 after they defeated the Eastern Kentucky Colonels.

With the win, the Cats will now be the No. 1 team in the country when the new top 25 rankings are released on Monday.

Once again, the Cats put together an outstanding defensive performance in their 91-49 win over EKU.

They held the Colonels to 25% shooting and forced them to turn it over 21 times.

This was a game that Kentucky was able to take advantage of their size in the frontcourt and that is why the MVP is, Nick Richards.
