UK +9.5 tomorrow

[westerncat]

Auburn is going to be us like a stepchild. Calipari will screw things up again.

 

[KYCAT78]

Agreed, if we do win I’ll start to believe in this team a little more but I’m not feeling this game. Cal don’t have it in him to win these type games IMO.

Hell we cannot beat a good team at home, how do you expect us to beat one on the road in the most hostile environment in SEC.

 

[permdaddy]

You have to be mentally and physically tough to win a game like this. We have shown to be neither. Would love to see that change but I'm not expecting it.

 

[HenryMuto]

Has the spread ever been this large for a Coach Cal team?

I expected it to be larger considering we got beat by 17 by South Carolina and they were 11.5 dogs and they lost by 40.

I was expecting it to be at least 10 pts at a minimum and probably should be 11.5

 

[crawfords corner]

Sheesh. It's one thing to be a 3-4 point underdog on the road. 8.5? For Kentucky? How many times has that ever happened. I bet not often. Maybe during 9-16.

 

[jameslee32]

+8.5 seems about right to me without Mitchell.

This team is too talented to be a dog like that. Cal should be ashamed.

But, it's not about being a dog, it's about how many NBA players you "get" to the league, you know?

Auburn will be lucky to have ONE in the G-league, yet it's very likely they run circles around us tonight. Cal will have another 10+loss season this year and run around for another 5 years bragging about having a few first round picks from that team. You know what, Cal? UK FANS DON'T GIVE A SH*T ABOUT THE NBA!!

Meanwhile UCONN is running circles around Marquette. Makes me sick seeing them win another Natty.

Would been +8.5 with or without Mitchell

 

[YardCat]

Actually Vegas eventually catches on to frauds when setting opening lines. And that’s what we are. I’d love to bet Cats to cover but little faith they will without Mitchell.

Injuries, injuries, injuries…

Cal had the best luck his first few years… we stayed almost perfectly injury free. In all reality, its been a bleep show ever since. In most of the last 12 years since the title, UK has dealt with what seems like an unbelievably high number of injuries. Every year it derails the hope we have that the Cats can be the truth again!
This team never had full deck at the same time to build consistency and rhythm.

No excuses… just enormous frustration.

When you build your bench you can weather the injuries, just seems like we are one excuse away every year from winning it all.

And we have a very deep bench probably as good as any in the country Cal just can't figure out how to use the right players at the right times not a shocker see 2015 team vs Wisky

 

[aikenite4uk]

Took the 8.5 and also on the Cats for the moneyline.

 

[billCgmx]

I took the +8. Wish I had jumped on the moneyline.

 

[CatsnRoses]

Congrats to all those who took the points and especially the ML.

Rare you'll be able to get +320 with significantly better talent at every single position on the court.
