Their last 3 games:
74-69 at home against GA
74-68 @ Alabama
87-75 at home against Miss State
They have been playing much better. We can't fall for the trap game and we have to bring it as we have been before today's game and we will be fine. This team loves the road.

The Aggies win streak ends Tuesday night.
Hagans and Nick were both hobbled and we beat UF.

In 3 more days they should be near 100%.

Bad news for the upstarts.

mizzou will be the tougher game imo. they played us tough at rupp and will do the same. it was probably our first really physical game. of course they hacked. anyway they’ve also been more impressive than a&m imo lately. they don’t have a good team but they’re just hot. they lost at arkansas who they just beat, but had beaten ole miss and auburn back to back which was somewhat impressive. they seem capable of playing better than they’re record. if they get a crazy whistle they could actually beat us. but i mean crazy whistle. you never know, they’re all big this time of year.

Except for the fact that we don’t play Missouri again. Only once this year.

Will be another grinder. Will probably only be favored by 4-5 points. They are scrappy and well-coached.

If we come out focused and not looking ahead to the rematch against Auburn, we should win by 12-15. That likely won't happen and we struggle to put them away.

There are 353 teams in D-1.

They are 350th in 3-point percentage
They are 336th in total field goal percentage
They are 336th in points scored
They are 240th in total rebounding

Kentucky should destroy this team.
That does not take into account how good they have been playing lately.

A&M is the least talented team in the league and it is not even close. They have a great coach so they are middle of the pack in league when they should be last and have won a few games in a row but they aren't scary like Ole miss was coming in with an amazing player with similar record . With that said this is a game we will be favored by 10 or so and could win by 20 . IMO I think the score will be 77-61 though it could be tied at half easily or even have us down 2-3 .

Once Buzz can bring some talent in they will be a constant tourney team with his coaching like VT was.

I kind of like Buzz Williams as a coach , not saying I would want him as UK next coach , but he does a pretty good Job.

I hate to be “that guy” but my main concern about going to a&m is the referees.

They aren’t a very talented team, but they have the second best coach in the league. He has somehow willed them into a winning record. I expect a tough one on Tuesday. Looking forward to being at the game.
C'mon. Pearl is the second best coach in the league.

Both UGA and BAMA had double digit leads against A&M and let them come back and win in both games. They do play a lot of the 4 guard lineup and we should do good going inside to Richards and EJ. Kentucky needs to shut down the 3 point game that A&M has found over last 2 games. A&M was only hitting 25% from 3 and the last couple of games they are hitting approx. 45% from 3. We have to shut down the 3 ball. UK needs to go into College Station and play outstanding ball and get the win. We really need these next 4 games before the SEC Tourney.

I expect a tuff game against the aggies!!

-With the referee bias, we will playing in the "8 vs.5" mode again.
-Aggies, as poor a shooting team as they are, will make everything they throw up in the air, maybe 15/17 from Three and shoot 90% from the line with WAY more FT opportunities than us.

-Some no-name, whatever, mid-roster player that nobody has ever heard of will suddenly play like Lebron James against us and go off for his career game.

The best thing we have going for us is our road 3 point shooting (believe it is .50% over the last 4 games). Let's hope we keep that going.
