    Kentucky -5.5 at UCLA
    Not sure how this doesn't hit. UCLA is terrible. They are 4-3 with their wins coming against Cal Poly, Pepperdine, UNLV, and CSU Northridge. They have lost to Monmouth (who have actually played well), Kansas, and Wake Forest. Kansas beat them by fukkin 19 points. Even if Kentucky is without Ulis again, I can't see UCLA keeping it all that close. Kentucky's smallest margin of victory is 11 and that was against Duke. Thoughts?

      Ya, something is very fishy about this line. Bet it now because it is going to rocket up I imagine. UCLA is not good defensively, Kentucky guards should be able to get anything they want. Ulis is out but it's not like Kentucky doesn't have players that can step in and be affective. UCLA has to shoot the lights out from deep to keep this close.

          Yeah they are overrated based on name. Steve Alford is a bad coach. Vegas obviously has a pretty good read on this team and line seems a little trappy but plenty will take the points at home without having watched either team play.

              So would you role with Kentucky then MMV or just stay away?

              I have one of my guys saying UCLA + the points.

              I am glad I saw this thread now.

                UCLA has not been good but can probably play with this Kentucky team. I'd say it is Kentucky or nothing because they might blow their doors off. Something tells me UCLA plays their A game which can be pretty good. UK really hasn't been all that good so far.

                    They should have lost to Illinois State at home in their only game without Ullis. Granted, Illinois State would only be a 2 or so point dog to UCLA on a neutral floor but that was at Rupp, the best advantage in college sports. If Ullis is out, I may consider a play on UCLA at +7 or so

                        Not sure how UK should have lost to ISU, they won by double digits.

                              look at the FT disparity. 46-10 for god sakes. A similarly talented Maryland team didn't even crack 30 free throws

                                They also beat Notre Dame and USC on a neutral floor.... they played Dayton to a 3 point game. The only bad loss was at USC by 11 that they avenged on a neutral floor

                                      Have to agree with you there, #1 recruiting class every year by far and 1 title, that's why he had to hold onto their long winning streak like that meant anything without a title. That last few minutes of the championship game was about the worst coaching job of all time. Having said that UCLA has a coach that is just as bad, his son is a player that can't defend a chair, and has hardly any talent or depth. I am sorry but UCLA didn't just magically become Kentucky good since the Maui. Even Calipari would have a hard time fukin this up.

                                                Early season NCAAB betting is all done by overthinkers IMO....take better team and go w it....if you see ESPN highlights for the next 2 days with UCLA all over the place --so be it----if this was more of a "public" game the line would be -9 and still getting 80% of the bets IMO lol...

                                                    Scares me that this line isnt moving with Ulis news. I already thought the line was low anyway. This UCLA team cant defend against mid majors let alone a Kentucky team. Does Vegas know something???

                                                    According to Bilas, Kentucky hasnt lost a reg season game since March 2014 and they are 66-5 under Calapari as #1. Kentucky stomped them last year. Pauly Pavilion hasnt sold out and there is rumor their will be as many Kentucky fans as UCLA.... what the hell am I not seeing????

                                                          Ya play the under because UCLA has that lock down defense like Indiana

That last few minutes of the championship game was about the worst coaching job of all time. Having said that UCLA has a coach that is just as bad, his son is a player that can't defend a chair, and has hardly any talent or depth. I am sorry but UCLA didn't just magically become Kentucky good since the Maui. Even Calipari would have a hard time fukin this up.

                                                            God his son is so fukin bad.

They are 4-3 with their wins coming against Cal Poly, Pepperdine, UNLV, and CSU Northridge. They have lost to Monmouth (who have actually played well), Kansas, and Wake Forest. Kansas beat them by fukkin 19 points. Even if Kentucky is without Ulis again, I can't see UCLA keeping it all that close. Kentucky's smallest margin of victory is 11 and that was against Duke. Thoughts?
