    Tennessee v Kentucky

    This is an interesting concept. Here we have a Kentucky team goes to Tennessee and wins by three.

    A Kentucky team that does not cover big spreads

    So logic says take Tennessee + 16 1/2 All over it! Luck All!

    I seriously doubt that Tennessee will keep it as close as they did last time, however the window of spread I can see is 12-19 point spread. That being said that is too close to the 16.5 to take Kentucky minus the points. This is a no play because as soon as I put money on tennessee plus anything up to 20 is when Kentucky beats them by 30. Tennessee is BASURA. Best of luck to you. I am not betting on this one so you have a chance to win!!!!

    All you said makes much sense! Kentucky coach says Tennessee is much improved. Scares me.

    Still will take the + 16 1/2

    No question at all. No one has said anything to get me off this line!

    I still think the points are the way to go!

    Fridge; You need to explain this to me. I believe Tennessee can play with Kentucky inside.

    I cannot see a blowout here!

    I wish you the best of luck. Tennessee has played better defensively, but there is a significant difference between their home form and their away form. They had the size advantage versus Vanderbilt, but still lost by 18 in Nashville. I view Kentucky as a better team than Vandy, and, in already playing Tennessee, know what to expect.

    What has been consistent have been the Vols with the under. 8 straight games Tennessee has played under the total.

    Everyone expects a blow out which is why I love tenn +21.5 on my teaser. Kentucky has only covered the spread 4 of their last 17 games and only have 7 wins ATS this year. I will roll with that Instead of what people think Kentucky will do at home.

    I was going to say...Always go with your first instincts. I have lost to much by changing bets at times in the past because of what people say on here. GL to us

    I'm a Tenn fan... live 7 miles from campus... Tenn at home losing by 3 has zero, 0, bearing on this game. Tenn on the road is a completely different team. You don't know which team will show up. They could keep this game around 8 or they could lose by 28, just depends which one shows up.. The one that went to Miss St or the one that went to Vandy... I'll pass... too many better plays on the board.

    BOL to ya!

    Know this, Cuonzo Martin is going to be a top flight NCAA head coach in three years or less.
    He's not going to roll over for Kentucky, I don't know if his team right here, right now, has the horses to beat the Cats, but he's not going to roll over, his kids love him, buy into his coaching style, and play hard for him.

    I like Coach Martin a lot, if I have to bet the game, and I do not have to, I'd lean to taking the points.

    Best of luck to those riding with Tennessee. Personally, I did not bet the game.

    I did bet o142 for Vandy/Arkansas.
