While Kentucky will play without Derrick Jasper and Jodie Meeks, Mississippi State will have at least one of its injured players in the starting lineup. State listed forward Charles Rhodes, nursing a sprained ankle, in its starting lineup.
Rhodes, who played only 12 minutes in tshe last four games while hobbled by the sprained ankle, averages 15 points and seven rebounds.
Meanwhile, Kentucky listed the same starters that began the Vanderbilt game: center Patrick Patterson, forwards Mark Coury and Ramon Harris and guards Ramel Bradley and Joe Crawford.
Jerry Tipton of the Lexington Herald- Leader has covered Kentucky basketball since the 1981-82 season. That time includes five coaches, five Final Fours, four athletic directors, two interim athletic directors and many memories. Before coming to Lexington, Tipton worked eight years for the Huntington (W.Va.) Herald-Dispatch. He covered Marshall’s basketball team for two seasons before coming to the Herald-Leader.
