4. Kentucky Wildcats

Previous ranking: 5

Record: 15-2 (5-0 SEC)

Kentucky got a tough victory at Vanderbilt and then dominated Auburn to improve to 5-0 in SEC play. The Wildcats will try and win their sixth straight when they travel to Mississippi State on Tuesday.

Isaiah Briscoe and De’Aaron Fox were superb in the win over Vanderbilt. The two guards combined for 45 points despite shooting a combined 0-of-2 from deep. Malik Monk was also great with 18 points and Bam Adebayo contributed 13 and seven rebounds. There is no reason to think Kentucky can’t win it all despite relying mostly on freshman and sophomores.
