(721) WESTERN KENTUCKY
(722) ARKANSAS STATE
Take "(721) WESTERN KENTUCKY"
Free opinion for Thursday is the Sun Belt clash between Western Kentucky and Arkansas State. I'm a little surprised the Hilltoppers are the dog here, as they are coming on some while Arkansas State is sliding a bit. I like taking dogs that are trending forward against favorites trending in reverse, particularly when it's kind of a subtle rise or fall, which is thus not overly adjusted into the number. Even though it's a very short price, Western Kentucky is nevertheless the dog and has value.
Looks like a defensive game out of the SEC. Alabama is on a 2-0 run under the total and is coming off a 61-51 loss to Kentucky, a physical, defensive game under interim head coach Philip Pearson. It's been a tumultuous week as Pearson took over the reins of the Crimson Tide program following head coach Mark Gottfried's resignation on Monday afternoon. While that loss saw the Tide's offense struggle, the defense assembled its best effort of the season, holding UK to 19 first-half points and its second-fewest points this season. Arkansas is on a 3-0 run under the total, including getting just 51 points the last game in a home loss to Auburn. Play Alabama/Arkansas under the total
