Rupp Arena, Lexington, KY
The TennesseanThis is what Vanderbilt basketball's Jerry Stackhouse promised years ago, and he delivered on Wednesday by beating Kentucky without Liam Robbins.
Cason Wallace - Questionable SaturdayKentucky head coach John Calipari said Wallace (lower leg) is "fine," but the guard's status is uncertain for Saturday's game versus Arkansas, Hunter Shelton of SI.com reports.
ImpactWallace suffered the lower leg injury in Wednesday's 68-66 loss to Vanderbilt. The freshman has taken on an expanded role as a ball handler while Sahvir Wheeler (ankle) has been sidelined the past seven games, and with both Wallace and Wheeler in danger of sitting out Saturday, the Wildcats could be short on playmaking options out of the backcourt.

ImpactThe 6-foot-6 forward reached a season-high 23 points in Wednesday's upset win over Kentucky. The senior led the way for Vanderbilt and did it shooting a perfect 4-4 from beyond the three-point line. This has been Wright's best game yet and it definitely came at a perfect time for Vanderbilt.
