Oscar Tshiebwe - Nation-leading pace continuesTshiebwe closed Tuesday's 76-64 victory over Southern University with 23 points (9-11 FG, 5-7 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals over 25 minutes.ImpactTshiebwe now has double-digit rebounds in all eight of Kentucky's games this season, and he'd have a double-double in each were it not for a scoreless effort on Nov. 19 in which he was limited by foul trouble. He leads the entire nation in rebounding at an astonishing 15.4 boards contest, with Tuesday's effort actually decreasing that number. One would think Tshiebwe might slow down a bit in SEC play, but considering his toughest opposing matchup this year was Duke in the season opener, and that he pulled down 20 boards in that outing, it's possible he's simply going to continue to be an unstoppable force in the paint.
