The No. 6 Kentucky Wildcats return to action tomorrow afternoon for a road contest against the Texas A&M Aggies.

What are three things to know about Texas A&M?

The Aggies can play defense

On average, Texas A&M holds opponents to 66.7 points per game.

Texas A&M has only allowed 70 or more points to be put up on them four times this season.

Kentucky could struggle on offense which would be uncharacteristic for this team.

Wade Taylor IV can be a lot to handle

Texas A&M has a highly skilled guard in Wade Taylor IV.

The 6-foot junior from Dallas leads the Aggies in scoring with 17.3 points per game and in assists with four per game.

The Wildcats will need to have a plan for him or they could be heading back to Lexington with their first loss of conference play.

The Aggies cannot shoot from deep

Texas A&M is shooting 26% from beyond the arc so far this season.

That is not the worst in the league but it is far from the best.

Kentucky will be able to focus more on playing defense down low than on the perimeter.

Tipoff is set for 1 p.m. CT and the broadcast can be found on ESPN.
