Kentucky's Ansley Almonor and Koby Brea, forced into the starting lineup because of key injuries, helped lead the Cats past host Tennessee on Tuesday.

Kentucky leads 13-9 as the Wildcats have cooled off since their hot start. Kentucky has not made a field goal in the past 4:25, and Tennessee is just 3-13 from the field at the second media timeout. The Vols defense has already forced four turnovers, but they have struggled to turn defense into offense.

Kentucky got off to a very good start in this game, jumping out to an early lead and stunning the Tennessee crowd. However, the momentum didn't last long for the Wildcats as Tennessee quickly climbed back into the game and took a 33-30 lead at the half.
