Lots of wood to chop here to clear 159 in the nightcap at Atlanta, but there's a high-scoring history in these State Farm Classics that should be noted.
Last November, both of these teams were involved when this event was held in Chicago, and while Duke didn't have an explosion of points vs. Michigan State, Kentucky was involved in an 89-84 track meet vs. Kansas. The Wildcats also landed on 163 (though requiring a pair of OTs) vs. Michigan State the preceding November in this same State Farm Classic. Mark Pope has UK running, hitting the century mark in each of its first two games. Depth? The Cats have seven double-digit scorers thru two games, with Dayton transfer PG Koby Brea already on 20 ppg. Assuming he's fit, we also get to see Duke's super frosh Cooper Flagg, already scoring nearly 16 ppg. Play Duke-UK "Over" (at Atlanta)
