The defense will come in time.

Of that,  is certain.

There was little evidence Tuesday night — has been little this season, really — that No. 4 can lock down the perimeter. The Kentucky Wildcats’ offense did most of the heavy lifting in a 105-76 rout of Texas Arlington.

But the Wildcats (4-1) will come to put an end to those blow-by dribbles, Harrison said. What you saw against the Mavericks (2-3) will soon be a thing of the past.

“We have no choice,” Harrison said. “Me and (twin brother) Aaron definitely have to pick it up defensively. Basically, it just comes down to one-on-one and having to stop your man one-on-one. So our guards, we’re definitely going to work on that and get better with that.”
