The Kentucky Wildcats were back in Rupp Arena after multiple games away and were able to pick up a blowout victory over the Illinois State Redbirds 96-70.

This was another game where the Cats were great offensively, scoring 96 points while shooting 57.1% from the field and 44% from deep.

Kentucky once again made double-digit threes, draining 11 threes in the ball game with Antonio Reeves leading the way with four made three-point baskets.

Reeves was going against his old team in this ball game, and he showed up, scoring 27 points while going 10-15 from the field and 4-8 from deep.

Kentucky had a ton of momentum coming into this ball game with some big wins, including one over North Carolina, so you didn't want to lose that with an ugly home loss to Illinois State, and the Cats took care of business.

Now, the next game for Kentucky is a road matchup with the Florida Gators as SEC play is finally here.
