Weeks in the regular season don’t get much bigger than the one Kentucky is set to tip-off tonight.
The No. 5 Kentucky Wildcats are set to host the two teams they’re battling for SEC regular-season supremacy in their two upcoming games.
Today, Kentucky will host No. 19 LSU. The Tigers enter Tuesday with a 19-4 overall record and 9-1 conference record. This puts them in a deadlock for second place in the conference with Kentucky.
As well as the Tigers have played this season, they have yet to do much against ranked teams. They’re just 1-2 against ranked teams this season, losing to Florida State and Houston and beating an Ole Miss team no longer ranked.
