Tonight's first selection is dedicated to saucy actress, and University of Kentucky alumna, Ashley Judd. She frequently attends Wildcat basketball games, but she'll have to have Indy Car hubby Dario Franchitti motor to Florida to make tonight's meeting between the #2 Wildcats (16-0) and unranked Gators (11-4).
The line opened at -2.5 in favor of Kentucky, but heavy action on the Wildcats has driven the number as high as -4 at some sportsbooks. Kentucky is a mediocre 7-7 against the spread, but should find few problems with Florida, a team with an RPI of 82 that just lost on the road to Vanderbilt. Kentucky has great balance, averaging a mighty 85 points per game, while holding opponents to 61.6 points per contest. And the Wildcats have won
every game by double digits, except versus Louisville (71-62), Georgia (76-68), UConn (64-61), and North Carolina (68-66).
Kentucky Wildcats -3.5The #24 Baylor Bears (13-1) visit the hapless Colorado Buffaloes (9-6) this evening...and either this contest is a betting trap or easy treasure, like meeting a nympho on a bender in a bar. The Buffaloes do
not play defense, and do
not rebound well at all. They have a clownish RPI of 192, and just got hooked by the Longhorns 103-86. Conversely, the Bears have a respectable RPI of 38, average 83.8 points per game, and hold opponents to 61.4 points per game. Also, Baylor is 5-1 against the spread as a road team.
And, finally, what all the luscious ladies and daring degenerates have been waiting for...tonight's college basketball teaser!
