Kentucky-LSU on Tuesday will be a fun battle of the boards

Tuesday night’s Kentucky-LSU winner will be the team that eats the most glass.

That’s our bold prediction for the showdown between the two teams a game behind Tennessee in the SEC standings. We’re talking rebounding here. You know, board work. Grabbing missed shots off the glass. Second-chance points. All that good stuff.

As has been the case under John Calipari, UK knows how to rebound. In fact, the Cats rank fourth nationally in offensive rebound percentage — a team’s number of offensive rebounds divided by that total plus the opposition’s defensive rebounds — at 38.
