Kentucky in Complete Control, Exacts Revenge on No. 25 Vanderbilt

In Lexington, on Saturday, Feb. 28, 2026, the Kentucky men's basketball team defeated Vanderbilt 91-77 at Rupp Arena.
Seeking payback after an 80-55 loss on Jan. 27 in Nashville, Kentucky split the regular-season series with Vanderbilt.
Sophomore guard Collin Chandler scored a career-high 23 points, going 6-for-8 from 3-point range, while Otega Oweh also scored 23, with four Wildcats in double figures.
Vanderbilt has dropped three of its past five SEC games, with Tyler Tanner scoring 19 points and Jalen Washington adding 16 in the loss.
Up next, the Kentucky Wildcats travel to Texas A&M on Tuesday, March 3, 2026 at 7:00 P.M. Eastern on ESPN2, with only two regular-season games remaining.
