LIVE BLOG: Kentucky WBB vs. Belmont

Kentucky got a big 30-point win against Purdue last Saturday, but now, they’ll look to keep up their momentum against Belmont at home (6 p.m. ET). KSR’s new and improved LIVE BLOG will bring you all the sights and sounds from Historic Memorial Coliseum.
The Bruins are 5-5 on the year, but don’t let their record deceive you. Their losses were against No. 9 Duke, No. 11 Ohio State, No. 13 Kansas State, No. 20 Michigan and a 12-1 Mississippi State team. Needless to say, Belmont has had a rough go of it to start the season, and they could very well beat the Cats if they don’t come ready to play.
The game will stream on SEC Network+, so if you’re unable to watch, we’ve got you covered. Refresh the feed below for updates and our takes on the game, from both Memorial Coliseum and the couch. You can also join the conversation on the KSBoard Game Thread.
