Corey Davis Jr. vs. Tyler Herro. Tyler Herro was the hero in Kentucky’s win last weekend over Wofford, completely handling Wofford’s star Fletcher Magee, holding him to 0-of-12 shooting from 3. Davis presents a different challenge, and Kentucky could decide to rotate defenders on Houston’s leading scorer. Herro also led Kentucky in 3-pointers made this season. If PJ Washington can’t play, Herro needs to have a good shooting night for the Wildcats.
The Cougars lead the nation in defensive shooting percentage, with opponents hitting just 36.6 percent of their shots against the Cougars. Kentucky shot 25.9 percent from 3-point range in the first weekend. With or without PJ Washington if Kentucky doesn’t shoot the ball well they will not win this game.
Rebounding
It is imperative that the Wildcats win the rebounding battle and get the ball out in transition. Reid Travis will be a key player in this game. He will need to match Brooks for the Cats to be successful.
The common thread in all of the Cougars losses has been poor shooting from three-point range and that will be their biggest threat in this game. If they shoot well, they win.
With or without PJ Washington I think the Cats perimeter defense wins them this game, in a close one.
Wildcats 67 Cougars 65
