    Loyola at Kentucky 1pm

    Kentucky might be without jones again tomorrow but if so i see that helping their focus and execution more so than hurting it. loyolas only two losses are to ncstate and bonnies who play each other last night to the wire. regardless i thought the spread would open in the 30s not -24. any thoughts, anybody like uk to start the day

    I'm a UK homer so take this with a grain of salt but I wouldn't touch this game. Kentucky has failed to cover in at least each of their last 5 games. Jones did not practice today and word is he will sit again tomorrow. Additionally, Cal has hinted that the team will not have a shoot-around tomorrow morning before the early 1PM EST tip. This game is a quick turnaround since the late Tuesday night game versus Chattanooga. I see the team being sluggish and potentially sleepwalking through this game. Guys on the team have been tweeting all week about being excited to go home to their families for the 3-4 day holiday break. You have been warned.

    Im a sophomore at loyola actually, I haven't been able to see them play since george washington and what concerns me is our key to success is really if Cormier can dominate, Drummond can drop a ton of points and Etherly needs to get a double double along with our other big Walker getting in the double digits but the last 2 games Etherly was completely absent and I'm not sure if that was a nagging injury or what. Cormier is a force to be reckoned with, he definitely could be on almost any team in the country but he chose to stay close to home. Drummond is a real scorer too but Loyola really attacks the paint constantly and the three is not really a threat, Kentucky has the serious shot blockers down low and I feel like if Etherly isn't dominant like in his last two games Kentucky will completely control the paint.

    Ok so without Jones Loyola will be able to get in the paint more frequently Davis is definitely the main force but they will have to rely more on MKG here. If the game is in blowout mode though and Loyolas bench is in it will get ugly fast, Loyola has a very weak bench and I feel with a big spread like this it could be extremely coverable

    LMD +24 U140 don't see UK covering probably still have hangovers.

    I capped the game at -24 for UK and total 138 so this line is sharp I didn't even know the lines before I capped the game.

    I've been tailing loyola this year and done well. I see them easily covering here because Jones is injured, whether he'll play or not is the question.

    I'm on kentucky 1st ten min and kentucky 1st half...
    hoping the wildcats go for the throat early and just get up 15-20 by halftime.
    good luck, though- whatever your play! good luck, gentlemen.

    Kentucky -10.5 2nd half anyone? Kentucky still 0-fer on 3s. Anyone see Kentucky turning on the afterburners and kicking some butt in the 2nd??

    Well Loyola is in big foul trouble so that might help.

    Only problem is now is that UK will have to come out in the 2h and make an impression. Kentucky 2h is golden, imo. LMD covers the game though. But, its going to be close.

    I feel with Loyola foul trouble, Kentucky might just start trucking through their players...easier baskets

    Man I hate that kentucky up by at least 10 because -24 or +24 can go either way now.
