Predictions, picks and odds as Vanderbilt basketball faces Oklahoma. Plus, injury updates and the latest news.

The Kentucky Wildcats softball team is hoping to build on last season's success, but are ranked 11th in the preseason SEC coaches poll.

The Kentucky women's basketball team went 1-1 last week, including their first SEC loss, and dropped in the AP Top 25 Poll.

The special time Calipari spent at Kentucky has been succeeded by a disappointing start to his tenure at Arkansas. The glitz and glamour of his return to the place he called home for 15 seasons has largely been stripped away due to Arkansas' slow start, but a victory would go a long way in spurring a renaissance for the Razorbacks.

Since John Calipari obviously doesn't do well after losses, it could be twice as worse this week before homecoming

For Kentucky, a loss would mean the Wildcats would slip down to a No. 4 seed, per Lunardi — provided that Texas A&M doesn’t fall to Oklahoma at home. After a strong start to the season, Kentucky has now lost 3 of its last 5 games including 2 in a row.

This is the first time in seven years — and just the third time ever — that two former UK basketball players have been voted in as starters for the All-Star Game.

Two former Kentucky players earned starting nods for their respective conference in the 2025 NBA All-Star Game.

Contrast that success with Calipari’s first Arkansas team, which needed six tries to notch its first SEC win of the year, and Kentucky fans figure to have plenty of ammunition Saturday. The Razorbacks are just 12-8 overall, and their 1-6 start to SEC play has them looking like a long shot for an NCAA Tournament berth.

Here's where Vanderbilt basketball's March Madness resume stacks up halfway through SEC play and how the Commodores can improve it.
