Kentucky Basketball heads to Las Vegas to take on Utah and Ohio State. This marks the beginning of the end for the Cats, of non-conference play that is. To cap off a relatively weak non-conference schedule, the Wildcats will begin a grueling gauntlet of Utah, #5 Ohio State, and #3 Louisville before beginning their SEC slate.
There are many reasons to be excited about the Las Vegas trip: potential for success, finding an identity, a chance to climb the polls, as well as giving young players good opportunities to improve.
