Kentucky jumped to a 6-4 lead by the time of the first television timeout Saturday.
The Cats scored the first six points of the game. When Joe Crawford passed to Mark Coury for a layup, it put UK ahead 6-0 and brought a rousing standing ovation.
UK started its 12th lineup in 14 games. Crawford, who UK Coach Billy Gillispie noted on Friday had been improving, started for the first time since the Houston game.
