The #1 ranked Auburn Tigers (26-2) (14-1) come to town to take on the #17 ranked Kentucky Wildcats (19-9) (8-7) in a huge game for the Cats. Looking forward to this one. The Tigers came off a huge blowout win at home tonight vs. Ole Miss 106-76. The Cats are coming off a hard-fought win at Oklahoma winning 83-82 on a huge game by Oweh who had 28 points. The game is on ABC at 1:00pm Go Cats!!

Auburn by a bunch. They are just different this year.

Obviously, Auburn should win. But of the moments I've watched them, I don't feel like I'm watching some kind of juggernaut. They've had several games not decided until the final minutes.

I get that, but I've watched them play a lot of games where they don't look anything special and I look up and they are just pulling away the whole time. When they are playing at 90% I think they are far and away the best team in the country. Auburn's effort level is their biggest weakness, they sometimes play as if they are uninterested. That could easily bite them at anytime. 

As long as Butler plays, and with the game being at home. I do think they have a shot, as Rupp should be rocking with the number one team in the country coming in. 

I’m going upset in Lex on Saturday, UK plays its best game of the season!! Let’s gooooooo!!

Cats 94

Auburn 91

If Auburn plays as a team to their full potential, I don’t think that the Wildcats win. Auburn has had some bad games fairly recently that they won that plenty of teams could have beaten them. If Auburn isn’t as on their game and with being in Lexington, UK very well could win.

Based on last night, I'd suspect Butler will play and Robinson will sit. All other injuries seem minor and shouldn't affect the roster. I think Kentucky keeps it close but Auburn has a late run and pulls away, similar to the first Kentucky/Alabama game.

Auburn hasn't won at Kentucky since defeating the #1 ranked Wildcats, 53-52, in 1988. The Tigers have only won twice ever at UK, the other coming in 1983.

Wow.

I like the 1pm start.

Go Cats!

Kentucky 89-85.

Every experience with Brandon Garrison, good or bad, makes me mad and raises my blood pressure!

I am white knuckling watching NASCAR qualifying on one TV, Garrison will probably calm me down on the other two.

21-9 Auburn at the under 12 media timeout. The Cats have already had 5 turnovers in the first 8 minutes. Miles Kelley for Auburn done something I don't think I have ever seen before on back to back trips banked in 3's.
