Big Blue Preview: Kentucky vs. Georgetown
After beating top-ranked Purdue on Friday, the Kentucky men’s basketball team returns to action on Thursday, hosting Georgetown University for an exhibition game inside Rupp Arena (7 p.m.).
In the 78-65 win, Kentucky got 15 points from freshman Jasper Johnson and 10 apiece from Trent Noah and Otega Oweh.
“What I was really excited about in the Purdue game was, I was afraid we were going to feel small because Purdue’s frontline is so veteran, so physical,”
“At least in that one game, I didn’t feel like we were small and that made me feel really good.”
UK head coach Mark Pope believes his team has a lot of positive attributes.
“I haven’t coached a team this deep before,”Pope said.
“It’s one of the challenges that we’re really excited about. We’re really blessed in the sense of having such an incredibly deep team and trying to fit these guys together.”
