The game will be played in Raleigh, North Carolina and is set to tip off at 11 a.m. This year marks the Wildcats’ 15th NCAA Tournament appearance. UK's bracket also features No. 1 seed Baylor and No. 7 seed Missouri. The Cats defeated Mizzou 52-41 at home during the regular season, but the Tigers came back with a vengeance in the SEC Tournament. No. 5 Missouri narrowly defeated No. 4 Kentucky 70-68 in the quarterfinals of the conference tournament in Greenville, South Carolina.
