With just over a month left in the regular season, Kentucky truly controls its destiny. The Cats are on the NCAA Tournament bubble in most projections, but six of their remaining nine games are in Quad 1. Win at least half of those, don’t suffer any bad losses, and turn in a decent showing at the SEC Tournament and you’re probably safely in the Big Dance.
Kentucky’s next Quad 1 game is vs. Arkansas on Tuesday night in Rupp. That matchup is sandwiched by the only two Quad 2 games currently on the schedule, vs. Florida at home and at Georgia on Feb.
