Keys to a Kentucky Victory-
Short and simple. This game appears to be for all the marbles. If Kentucky loses they lose the tie break with South Carolina for first in the SEC East and land in a three-way tie for second. If Kentucky wins, they are not in the clear, but do hold a slight advantage with three games left. If Kentucky plans to come out on the winning side here is what they must do—
1) HOLD ON TO THE BALL- Although the turnovers have been lessened, the Cats turned the ball over 21 times in the last meeting with the Gamecocks. Kentucky must make smart decisions with the ball in order to stay competitive.

2) HIT THE BOARDS- Key to Kentucky coming out victorious is being physically dominant. That starts and stops in the post. Kentucky needs to rebound the ball on both ends to control this game.
PREDICTION
South Carolina traditionally has never been put in this position before. But, Columbia will be rocking, rolling, and extremely hostile. I see Devan Downey, South Carolina guard having another solid game and getting the victory. Although Kentucky is coming off their best performance of the season, this is a young and inexperienced team that will struggle in such a hostile environment.
KENTUCKY- 61
South Carolina- 64
KENTUCKY- 61
South Carolina- 64
