So about that Kentucky match up. Not happening. Instead UC will play host to Alabama on Saturday, December 1st. This is obviously a let down, no offense to Alabama who has been pretty good the last few years under Anthony Grant. But this match up doesn't hold nearly the same clout or buzz that a game with Kentucky would have. Disappointing but it is still another solid game on the schedule and a seeming upgrade over last years game with Georgia. Its an upgrade in the sense that when all is said and done a win could very well be of the RPI top 50 variety.
