Thanks to a great overtime performance, Kentucky was able to take down the UCF Knights in Rupp Arena. Throughout regulation, Kentucky's offense just struggled to find consistency. The defense was very good for much of the first half, but it even took a hit and allowed UCF to climb back and go on to almost take down the Wildcats. It was an Alex Wilkins floater that saved Kentucky and that led to a dominating overtime.
In overtime, it was almost like we were seeing a completely different team. Kentucky's offense was moving the ball efficiently and guys like Milan Momcilovic and Alex Wilkins were being aggressive and were really hunting for shots, something that the offense struggled with in regulation. Kentucky went on to outscore UCF 19-5 in the four-minute overtime period on their way to a 90-76 win. What led to Kentucky putting together a much better performance in overtime?…
