ESPN only giving UK a 20% chance to win v Ole Miss

[UKAlum84]

So you're telling me we should not even play. Everything will go according to plan then....Well, I hope this UK team shocks the the world. We got a good team.

Im not telling you that but apparently ESPN is…..

Funny thing is.... When we win, all these people will say Ole Myth was overrated and it wasn't that good of a win. They haven't played anyone and their D is weak.

Every single person discussing the game mentions our offense.. getting back c rod .. and whether or not that will help our line play better

No one is discussing our best unit. Our defense. No one thinks our defense will have any say in this game. Our defense won the Florida game when our offense and special teams put our backs against the wall. I believe they will be why we win this game as well.

On Saturday, Ole Miss has to try to score on our defense. This will be the toughest defense, by far, they have faced so far this season. I think it will be our defense that wins this game on Saturday.

It will be all 3 phases of UKs team that beats Ole Miss.

If we can see some scrappy interceptions like we saw against florida..... Watch out Ole Miss!

Remember that one interception we made and the player grabbed the ball with one hand and took off running.

What are you doing on here, surely you could get a job setting the odds at ESPN.

Oh wait, maybe you already work there.

We are getting back CRod but we still have the same offensive line to block for him. Our offensive line has not been very good up to this point. They will have to take a major step up if we are going to win at Ole Miss.

The defensive style ole miss plays is going to help the run game out a lot

 

[ukalum1988]

They’ll have us at 99.9% probability to win by game’s end….. I can feel it.

Auburn 2009
We werent even ranked I dont believe.
This team is stocked and now that CRod is back we have playmakers all over the field on O.

I believe we beat UGA and Auburn that year. AND if my memory serves me correctly, we won both on the road. Cobb was phenomenal in those games.

Statistically a 6.5 point dog has a 28% chance of winning. However I think this game is hard to handicap because there is only 1 out of 8 games the teams have played was a P5 to P5 matchup. Also injuries and suspensions factor in a bit and favor Kentucky overall. It's very unusual for a team ranked 8 spots below the other to be a 7 point favorite. This will be the first game this season where Kentucky plays with a full deck on offense.

Yep and UK played the 1 P5 matchup and won by 2 scores in the Swamp!

 

[YaketySax]

Some late money for UK to cover and most public bets now also on UK to cover. Lots of money on under 54.5.

 

[ukalum1988]

The ESPN Gamecast now gives Ole Miss an 83.9% win probability at the half.

And we'll probably drop a couple positions in rating.

 

[UKat1]

That is garbage. Its bad enough that we are a TD underdog but this has to be exposed.
Who has Ole Miss defeated to warrant all this? What are they ranked and what is UK ranked? UK is getting back CRod an All SEC RB for this game. Who is Ole Miss getting back?
This is not the same ole Kentucky and everyone in the Nation finds out Sat:

[Rod Dangerfield]

ESPN was right.

ESPN was right.

Actually they weren’t. It should be obvious.
