Kentucky basketball: 3 keys vs Mississippi St, prediction, game info

Prediction and game info
I thought Kentucky would be motivated to dominate Florida on Saturday night, but instead the Cats fell flat and laid an egg on the big stage. If two consecutive losses in winnable games can’t motivate this team to play better, this season could be headed for disaster.
I expect the Kentucky basketball to come out against Mississippi State and dominate the Bulldogs from the opening tip. The Cats should attack the Mississippi State shot blockers, crash the offensive glass and kick out to the open shooters when the defense collapses. This game is an opportunity for this young Kentucky team to gain confidence before Saturday’s clash with West Virginia.
