3. TCU
The Horned Frogs are a team that is most likely going to sit in that 9-10 range, which means a 1-in-12 chance of playing Kentucky. The good news is that this may be the team that the Cats match up with the best.
They give up over 72 PPG, and only score 78 PPG. They don't shoot it well either, hitting 33.1% from deep. So the Cats' cold shooting could be matched here; Kentucky hasn't hit over 35% in its last 5 games.
Led by 6'7 sophomore David Punch (14.3 PPG), TCU depends on a more balanced approach to scoring. While they won't be a pushover, it would be the most favorable matchup.
