Since falling to South Carolina early last week, Kentucky seems to have found its way on the basketball court. A win at then-fifth-ranked Tennessee happened last Saturday, which was followed by a win over Georgia on Tuesday night.
Kentucky will face another challenge on Saturday when Texas A&M visits Rupp Arena (2 p.m. ET, ESPN). The Aggies are 13-5 on the season, including a perfect 5-0 mark in the Southeastern Conference.
Coach Buzz Williams' team has won seven games in a row entering Saturday's contest. Wade Taylor IV leads A&M in scoring at 15.2 points per game. Tyrece Radford scores 12.2 points per outing and Julius Marble averages 9.9 points per game, but is scoring 15.6 points per contest in SEC play.
“We're staying disciplined. We're focused on what we need to do, winning every day,” Jacob Toppin explained.“Taking it day by day. We're not trying to get complacent and get used to winning. We want to still have that chip on our shoulder and understand that we have to be the chasers. We've got to hunt and not be hunted. Everyone's locked in, everyone's dialed in to winning every day.”
