I will have to disagree here for sure...they way to beat a 3 pt shooting team is not to try to out shoot them. UK would beat them with crazy defensive pressure and upping the tempo to a pace SU could not handle. Kentucky is to athletic, to good in the post, and will be able to penetrate against SU.

You are right about UK not being a good 3 pt shooting team, but they have not had issues playing against good shooting teams this year. When UK plays well, nobody can handle all of the threats (Wall, Cousins, Bledsoe, Patterson, Miller, Liggins, Dodson, etc.)
