Courtside with the Kentucky Wildcats

Georgia had not outscored a SEC opponent in the paint until getting a 26-24 advantage on Kentucky.
Not that UK got overpowered. The Cas won the rebounding battle 41-26.
Georgia, which came into the game ranked No. 308 nationally in shooting accuracy, made only 34.5 percent of its shots. That marked a low for a UK opponent in league play.
