Kentucky Preview

This looks like a more even matchup than the last couple of games. Kentucky is 4-4, having beaten four smaller schools (Florida Atlantic, William & Mary, Lipscomb and South Carolina Upstate), but had trouble with ranked schools (losing to Texas and George Washington). They've also lost to Minnesota & Western Kentucky. They're led by guard Samantha Mahoney (17 ppg) and 6'6" center Sarah Elliot (12 ppg, 7 rpg). On the positive side for Michigan - this is at home after a six game road trip.

After giving up 59 points in its last two road games, it's hard to blame the Michigan women's basketball team for being happy to come home.

Michigan (4-3) returns to Crisler Arena tomorrow to face Kentucky after a six-game road trip. It has been nearly a month since the Wolverines last played a game in Ann Arbor.

"It feels so good," senior Krista Clement said. "It's going to be fun to play in Crisler, but more importantly, we've all been complaining a little bit about our school. We've just been on the road. It just wears on you."

The wear and tear of a six-game road trip that spanned five states was visible in the Wolverines' past two games.
