Despite his team owning a 10-2 record and being ranked No. 6 in the latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll, Kentucky coach John Calipari still has it easy finding flaws. All he has to do is turn on the film of UK's most recent game, a 96-70 victory over Illinois State last week.

"You have to be kidding me: 24 offensive rebounds?" he said, referring to Illinois State's total in the loss. "And all they did was bum rush us. There was no X’ing. There was no screening the guy to get free. It was just you and that man, and they blocked us out. We didn’t go get any balls."

After that forgettable showing on the boards, the Wildcats are set for a far stiffer challenge Saturday. Kentucky faces Florida in the SEC opener for both teams at the O'Connell Center. The Gators are averaging more than 45 rebounds per outing, which ranks No. 1 nationally through Thursday's games.

Calipari's message is direct.

"Basically, keeping it real with guys: If you are not going to rebound, I am not going to play you," he said. "I don’t care who you are."
