While both games promise plenty of intrigue, all eyes will be on the second game to see how the 17th ranked Kentucky can fare against the top team in the country, Kansas. It’ll be no small feat for Kentucky to keep up. In each of their first two games of the season, the undefeated Jayhawks have scored 99 points. And with the fast-moving play that their starting five seems to prefer, the Wildcats will need to be on their toes if they want to keep pace.
But that doesn’t mean that Kentucky is in for a shellacking on Tuesday night. Kansas is undoubtedly one of the most athletic teams in the country, but so is Kentucky. And if Kentucky can stop Kansas transitions and slow the game down, there’s a good chance that a decidedly young Kentucky team could pull an upset.
It’s also worth noting that sports experts aren’t so sure Kansas will so easily have its way with the Wildcats. As of this writing, DraftKings’ Sportsbook has Kentucky at a manageable 4.5-point underdog. And with an over/under of 146.5, oddsmakers are certainly thinking that Kentucky can keep up with a high-powered Kansas offense.
Needless to say, Tuesday night is going to be fun. After we come off the highly touted game between Duke and Michigan State, we’ll be treated to another competitive bout between Kansas and Kentucky. And if you’re interested in watching the game, be sure to read on to see how you can stream it across devices when the game kicks off at 9:30 p.m. ET. Note, however, that there’s a possibility the tip may be a bit delayed if the Duke-Michigan State game goes long.
