After more than a week off, Kentucky returns to the court on Tuesday, hosting Southern University at Rupp Arena.

Kentucky has used the time away from the court to get healthy from both injuries and illness. A number of Wildcats have been out due to one or the other over season's first seven games.

UK head coach  has even shared in the illnesses.

“We are so beat up and sick, thank goodness we're not playing,” Calipari said on Thursday. “I got the sniffles and I have a little, you know, nasal, chest. I worked out today, just trying to see if maybe that will make me feel better. But we've had one with mono, one with strep throat. Probably can't give all of it, but you have guys (sick). Today's practice will probably have seven players there and like two managers.”

Still, the Cats have posted a 6-1 record and will look for their seventh straight win against UK alum and his Southern team on Tuesday.
