Georgia coach Mark Fox knows what’s coming to Athens tomorrow. Kentucky beat Georgia 69-58 in Rupp in early February, then considered one of the “big tests” for the Cats this season. Per usual, they aced it. “We got it close, but the game wasn’t close,” Fox said on today’s teleconference. “They have, without question, the best basketball team in America.”
What makes UK great? Unselfishness. “The thing John should get credit for — they’re so unselfish. That’s why they’re so dominant,” Fox said. “They can beat you in so many different ways that there’s not just one thing that jumps out at you…That’s why people have not been able to find a way to beat them, because Kentucky always has something else they can turn to.”
Kentucky was without Trey Lyles when the Cats beat Georgia on February 3. Lyles is back and scored 18 points in each of Kentucky’s last two wins, performances that earned him SEC Freshman of the Week. “They’re a different team with Lyles in the game,” Fox said. Georgia guard JJ Frazier said he thinks Kentucky can play with anyone. Fox’s response? “Well, playing and beating are two different things.”

Georgia was also without Marcus Thornton was just getting over a concussion so he didn't play for the Dawgs either!

Thornton will definitely help them but we will have Lyles back and that is going to really help us.

There is nothing wrong in being a bit biased to the Cat's as we are the best team in the country.

Trey is quick on his feet for being so big.

Trey has the ability to guard any center in the SEC.
