Kentucky men's basketball is reeling.
After ripping off a six-game win streak in conference games, they now have dropped back-to-back outings. The latest came Saturday in Athens, Georgia, where Kentucky lost to Georgia 75-68 at Stegeman Coliseum.
The Wildcats (16-9, 7-5 SEC) are on the outside of the latest NCAA Tournament projections, and they hit the road to Starkville, Mississippi, to take on Mississippi State Wednesday night.
The Bulldogs (17-8, 5-7 SEC) are on the bubble as well with first-year coach Chris Jans. But the Bulldogs have settled into a groove recently, having won five games in a row — four against conference foes and one versus NCAA Tournament lock TCU in the Big 12/SEC Challenge.
