Men's college basketball, women's college basketball – there's no shortage of college ball, every night. Don't worry, we're here to help you figure out what you missed but shouldn't have. Here are all the best moments from last night in college basketball. Kentucky routs Arkansas in SEC opener The Power 4 conferences all had their women’s college basketball tournaments kick off on Wednesday, so let’s start with a look at games from those to start. Why not Power 5, you wonder? The Big East tournament doesn’t begin until Friday, as that conference has fewer teams — and therefore rounds — to get through in comparison to the SEC, ACC, Big 12 and Big Ten.

Every Kentucky starter reached double-digit scoring, with between 10 and 20 points. Junior center Clara Strack led the way with 20 as well as 13 rebounds for a double-double, while senior guard Tonie Morgan scored 14 points on 5-for-10 shooting with 6 rebounds and 10 assists for her own double-double. Off the bench, senior guard Jordan Obi added a third double-double to the mix, on 14 points and 10 boards. The Wildcats limited Ar
