The Longhorns head over to Lexington tonight for their heavyweight bout against Kentucky at the historic Rupp Arena. Texas is coming off a heartbreaking loss to Texas A&M, and the Wildcats are currently on a three-game winning streak against SEC opponents.
This will undoubtedly be a tough one for Sean Miller ad Co., especially if they continue to have issues on the defensive side of the ball. If Tramon Mark, Jordan Pope, and Chendall Weaver can figure out a way to slow down Kentucky's Otega Oweh and Denzel Aberdeen early on tonight, they'll have a good chance to pull off the upset.
That being said, the Longhorns also have to be consistent and efficient tonight on offense. They can't be chucking up three-pointers in odd situations like they've been doing over the past few games. Dailyn Swain and Matas Vokietaitis have to continue being offensive threats in the frontcourt as well since Jayden Quaintance is OUT for Kentucky.
