UK Now a Six-Point Favorite over Florida

I guess CBS was wrong on the "They'll be favored ... but not by much."

was Feb. 27, 2014 the last time Kentucky lost a game inside Rupp Arena.

It was an overtime loss to Mike Anderson's Arkansas Razorbacks.

The Harrison twins had seven turnovers.

Since that night, UK has won 32 straight at home, made two Final Fours and had eight NBA Draft picks. So a lot of good has happened since that night. But the Wildcats will have to play well Saturday to extend their winning streak at Rupp to 33, because their opponent is a Florida team that just beat No. 14 West Virginia, and that has already played No. 8 Texas A&M and No. 10 Michigan State to single-digit games on the road.

In other words, this likely won't be an easy task for John Calipari's unpredictable team.

They'll be favored ... but not by much.

Tipoff is set for 4 p.m. ET on CBS and CBSSports.com.
 
Not surprised. I wish I could feel confident we'll win. It is in Rupp. But with this team we just never know. I'm still shaking my head at how we could be up over 20 and end up losing to a team without a player over 6'5", and an under .500 record. Knoxville and all.

Enough said sadly so. Still in shock and the only thing worse would be for it to happen in Rupp
 
Uf is playing really well and they have more talent then they did last year so I expect this to be a fight but we will win. UF though will go far IMO in the dance this year and I hate it as UF is the team I despise more then UL or IU.
Fla will bounce the first game in the NCAAT..watch
 
Florida is too good for UK to lose to them. We only seem to lose to really bad teams. KU being the outlier.
