It’s finally here! The Kentucky Wildcats open their basketball season this week against the Morehead State Eagles.
There is a lot of hype coming into the season for this Kentucky roster, but without any preseason scrimmages or games, we won’t really know how good they can be until we see them on the court.
Kentucky has not played Morehead State since 2012, when the Wildcats pulled out a narrow victory behind 28 points from Archie Goodwin and 20 points from Alex Poythress. Morehead finished last season with a record of 13-19 and fell in the first round of the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament to Tennessee State.
