Coming off their 57-53 win over No. 19 Florida Wednesday night, the No. 24 Gamecocks go right back to a Top 25 test, their toughest task of the regular season, facing No. 5 Kentucky in Lexington Saturday night.

The stakes are even higher headed into tip-off, as USC (5-0) and UK (6-0) are the last two unbeaten teams in SEC Play. Whoever wins claims sole possession of first-place in the conference.
