Mark Pope makes ‘war’ admission about massive Kentucky basketball-Missouri clash
The Kentucky basketball team played their final home game of the regular season on Tuesday night as they took down LSU in dominant fashion. The Tigers led 2-0 early in the game, and they would never see a lead again. The Wildcats went on a 15-2 run after that, and the game was pretty much over by halftime as Kentucky led by 27 points. The Wildcats ended up winning the game 95-64, and they now have just one regular season game left. Kentucky plays at Missouri on Saturday, and head coach Mark Pope knows that it’s going to be a doozy.
Missouri is having a surprise season as they are currently ranked #15 in the country. The Tigers are 21-8 overall on the year and 10-6 in SEC play. Mark Pope knows that Saturday’s contest won’t be an easy one to win.
“It’s gonna be a war,” Pope said, according to a post from Wyatt Huff.
Unfortunately for Kentucky, they will not have Jaxson Robinson for this game against Missouri. Robinson recently underwent wrist surgery, and he is out for the season.
