Kentucky -3 vs Miss St
Game Time: 3/9/2007 1:00:00 PM
By: Tom Scott
SEC East teams have dominated SEC West, so lay the points and back Kentucky today when the Wildcats meet the Mississippi St Bulldogs.
The Cats are 37-5 straight up in their last 42 SEC tourney games and are an amazing 30-10-2 against the spread in those games despite being favored in 40 of them.
The two times the Wildcats were an underdog, they won, both by double digits. Look at the SEC East vs the SEC West this season: 25-12 straight up with every East team at least .500 vs the West. In particular, Kentucky is 6-1 vs the West while Mississippi State is 1-5 vs the East.
Finally, the 17-12 record carried into this event by the Bulldogs is worse than every SEC East team except South Carolina who beat MSU. Gotta go with the pedigree here.
Prediction: Kentucky-74 Mississippi St-64
Play: Kentucky -3
