LSU needs to coerce Kentucky to play poor, like they did last time they met up, when LSU beat the Cats, 87-82. Julius Randle never seemed to get into his game, and LSU will try to do that again. Kentucky is obviously very capable of putting together big runs and scoring a lot of points in haste, and at some point in the game, they will, it's just when. LSU struggles defending the 3. Which I believe will be critical in this game. James Young, who can quietly drop them on you, will open things up in this match up. Kentucky defends the deep ball very well, which they will do. Kentucky wins this game in a big way at home with revenge.
