GAME NOTES: The top-ranked Kentucky Wildcats put their flawless record in harm's way as they take on the Alabama Crimson Tide in an SEC showdown at the Coleman Coliseum on Saturday afternoon.

After edging out both Ole Miss and Texas A&M in overtime thrillers the last two times out, John Calipari's Wildcats got back to their dominant selves, blowing out Missouri on Tuesday, 86-37. The lopsided win was the 16th straight to open the season, tying the 1933-34 team for the fourth-best start in school history.

Utah has proved to be one of the nation's best teams with great balance. Arizona is eventually going to lose at home and this seems like as good a time as any.
