Why is Kentucky Only -2.5 against LSU?

[KRIT]

I thought LSU sucks?

[t-wizzle]

Not sure about LSU really. They got crushed in Hawaii by Notre Dame but they have a good record. Kentucky hasn’t looked good. The opening number seemed a little short. I’m surprised it’s gone down even more.

[KRIT]

Yeah I was expecting something in the 4-5 range. Line seems low.

so many games like this in college hoops each week

All traps

But it did open 4.5. Don’t you think 5.5-6.5 would have seemed more likely?

This Kentucky team will be a solid fade on the road this season because of their youth, but this line is surprisingly low. ML has dropped 50 cents. I get it's their first true road game, but LSU isn't anything special. Doubt I'll have a play, was just curious why it was so low.

I’m with you. It seems low. They probably lose but i don’t see much value here.

looks like Kentucky has not been on the road in a while. If your doubting how powerful home field is just look at this

Home Teams

2033-683

this is straight up not ats but looking at the line it would qualify on the money line

its a 20 vs 73 according to team rankings

how many teams with spread of -4 or less on the road that where superior rank wise and record wise lose on the road ALOT

Can lsu shoot?

This Kentucky team ain't that good but should still smash bad teams especislly ones that can't shoot the 3.

Even if UK covered its a bad play.

I hate taking Road teams in college basketball seems like a funeral parlor
