Kentucky is big.
Maybe you’ve heard that once or twice during Kentucky’s first seven games. Maybe you’ve also heard Kentucky’s opponent Friday night, No. 6/7 Texas, is also big.
Perhaps no other team in the country is as big as the Cats, but if there’s one team that can really challenge Kentucky’s size, it is the Longhorns. While Kentucky’s backcourt will hold a noticeable height advantage against Texas – and just about everyone else – the frontcourt battle will be loaded.
