Over/Under 141

Every now and again, you see something that you have never seen before, and you’ll probably never see again. If you live in the town of Moon Township, PA, this is one you’ll never see again. Robert Morris has never hosted a postseason game of any kind before, and now, it gets to not only host an NIT game, but thanks to the fact that the first round of the NCAA Tournament is being played at Rupp Arena, the Colonials get to host. This isn’t any team that is coming to Moon Township, though. This is the Kentucky Wildcats. The names on the fronts of the jerseys match the names that were on the fronts of the jerseys of the guys cutting down the nets last year at the Final Four. You know that Kentucky has zero interest in playing this game, knowing that it looked like it had no interest to beat Vandy in the SEC Tournament, a game that would have probably guaranteed it a spot in the NCAA Tournament. However, we’re reminded of when Illinois, a team that just missed out on the dance two years ago, was forced on the road to Stony Brook to take on the Seawolves. That day, the Illini whipped the hosts in spite of the fact that virtually everyone was convinced that the underdogs were going to have their way. Everyone is convinced that Kentucky is going to roll over and die in this one. Everyone except for us. Head Coach John Calipari might be calling upon his backups quite a bit in this game, but once he finds a lineup that is excited about playing, this game should be over. Robert Morris just isn’t keeping up with the Cats, even if they are a shell of their old selves.

Our official Florida Gators vs. Kentucky Wildcats pick is here at Cappers Info, as two great teams get set to square off on the college basketball odds. Join us for all of the great NCAA basketball predictions for what should be another great game on the college basketball schedule tonight!

This is really the end of the road for the Wildcats this year. They have only gone 3-4 SU and 2-5 ATS in games without F Nerlens Noel, and that certainly isn’t good enough in the lowly SEC to convince the Selection Committee that the team deserves to get into the NCAA Tournament. Beating Florida would at least put the Cats in a position to dance, but losing this game might make winning the SEC Tournament the only way to get to March Madness. Unfortunately for the Big Blue Nation, we just don’t see it happening. Florida has one of the most athletic teams in the conference, and the chance is there to get back on the No. 1 line in the dance. Winning a road game like this one would squash the thought that the Gators can’t play on the road, though right now, with three losses in their last four road games (with the lone win coming against Auburn), it’s tough to argue. G Kenny Boynton and the crew ran roughshod on Kentucky when these two teams met in Gainesville, especially once Noel was knocked out of the game with his torn ACL. Though we do think that the crowd could be a big factor in this one, talent will eventually rule the day, which will put the state of Kentucky basketball in massive peril this year.

Florida vs. Kentucky Pick: Florida Gators -5.5
Florida vs. Kentucky Prediction: Florida 68 – Kentucky 60

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Thursday night. The Georgia Bulldogs and Kentucky Wildcats will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on ESPN.

The argument could be made as to whether the Wildcats really are or are not in the NCAA Tournament at the moment. We tend to think that the 13-point loss at the Arkansas Razorbacks was further proof that this isn’t a tourney team without F Nerlens Noel in the lineup. The consensus to get into the dance seems to be that the Cats need to either beat the Florida Gators at home on Saturday or take down both Georgia and at least one, maybe two games in the SEC Tournament. This is a tough one for a team that is 0-3 SU and ATS on the road without Noel in the fold though, and that’s a bad sign going into Athens for the final legitimate road game of the year. The Dawgs have quietly been stingy, and they have covers in nine of their last 10 games dating back to a home win against the Auburn Tigers on January 30th. Though this isn’t a team that is going to be in the postseason in all likelihood, we still think that UGA is going to be out for blood against a team that it would love nothing more than to trounce. This is the one and only meeting of the year for the Cats and the Dawgs, and this is going to be one for the pups to shine on their home court.

Kentucky vs. Georgia Pick: Georgia Bulldogs +3

CappersInfo is back with its Missouri Tigers vs. Kentucky Wildcats picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Saturday night tilt.

It’s not often that you say a game between a pair of ranked teams in one of the most important of the day, but the chase for the dance in the SEC is hot and heavy right now with a number of teams looking for big wins over the other. Kentucky is one of these teams that may or may not be on the right side of the bubble right now, knowing that it has played horrid basketball without F Nerlens Noel. Noel’s collegiate career is likely over, but the truth of the matter is that the Wildcats should theoretically be talented enough without him to excel. Head Coach John Calipari and the gang just haven’t though, and there is no way to believe that they are going to in this game against Missouri. The Tigers have to be flying high off of that win against the Florida Gators earlier this week, and if they can keep their wits about them going into Rupp Arena, they can come up with a big time road win that would cement a place in the NCAA Tournament. Don’t be all that shocked if that’s what ultimately ends up happening on Saturday night.

Missouri vs. Kentucky Pick: Missouri Tigers +3

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Saturday night. The Tennessee Volunteers and Kentucky Wildcats will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on CBS.

Location: Thompson Boling Arena, Knoxville, TN
Kentucky vs. Tennessee Live TV: CBS

This is where we are going to see whether the Wildcats really have the ability to compete in the NCAA Tournament or not. They are going to be on the road against a Tennessee team that has the ability to upset some of the top teams in the SEC. The Volunteers aren’t remarkable, and they aren’t going to get into the dance, but they can beat this Kentucky team if it doesn’t play its best game. UT is all the more dangerous right now after winning back to back games on the road, though there is a big time difference between playing games against South Carolina and Vanderbilt and taking on these Wildcats. But of course, the question about the Cats is how they are going to respond in their first game without F Nerlens Noel. Noel tore his ACL in the lousy loss to the Florida Gators. That was a terrible defeat for UK, and that might be exactly what happens again in this one. This is a very bad trap spot for the Wildcats, and we think that they are going to end up getting blasted firmly back onto the bubble.

Kentucky vs. Tennessee Pick: Tennessee Volunteers +1

The time is here for more of our sparkling CBB picks, as we look at the schedule for basketball for Tuesday night. The Florida Gators and Kentucky Wildcats will have it in a nationally televised game, which can be seen on the college basketball TV schedule on ESPN.

Free College Hoops Picks: Kentucky Wildcats @ Florida Gators
Date: Tuesday, February 12th, 7:00 ET
Location: O’Connell Center, Gainesville, FL
Kentucky vs. Florida Live TV: ESPN

The Gators and the Wildcats are both incredibly talented teams, and we think that the oddsmakers are going to look too much into the holistic numbers instead of the recent form. The Wildcats have been as hot as could be, rolling off five straight wins, many of which have come by convincing margins. They’re playing well, and they might finally be rounding into the form that we expected to see them take at the outset of the season. Florida meanwhile, has failed to cover three in a row, and we can’t help but wonder if missing F Will Yeguete is part of the reason why. This front line really isn’t all that deep when push comes to shove, and that could be bad news against F Nerlens Noel and company. The Wildcats could really use a signature win like this one to remove all doubt about their place in the NCAA Tournament, and we think that they are at least going to threaten to get it. This is going to be far too many points for the oddsmakers to be giving Florida on the college basketball odds on Tuesday night.

Kentucky vs. Florida Pick: Kentucky Wildcats +9.5

CappersInfo is back with its Kentucky Wildcats vs. Ole Miss Rebels picks and predictions, as we look to give you all of the college basketball advice and tips that you need to beat your online sportsbook for this crucial Tuesday night tilt.

It’s going to be interesting to see where the oddsmakers put this game at. The Rebels are 17-2, are clearly the best team in the SEC at the moment, and are rolling with nine straight wins. They’ve failed to cover two in a row though, and the team that is perceived to have the most talent in the SEC, Kentucky, is coming to town. In fact, this is a brutal stretch of two games for the Rebs, who have a trip to Gainesville up next to deal with the Florida Gators, and there is a legitimate chance that both games could be lost. This one is all about Kentucky, though. Which Wildcats are we going to see show up to Oxford? Will we get the ones that stormed through a good portion of the non-conference slate, putting up very impressive numbers along the away, or will we see the ones that have gone 4-2 SU and 1-5 ATS in the SEC thus far? We tend to think that we are going to see the latter. Ole Miss is a great team, and though we don’t think that it is going to have all that much success come the dance, we do think that it has the goods to put away the Cats with ease. If Kentucky isn’t an underdog by at least a touchdown, it should be.

Kentucky vs. Ole Miss Pick: Ole Miss Rebels -3
Kentucky vs. Ole Miss Prediction: Ole Miss 70 – Kentucky 62

With an 0-3 mark on the road this year and some awfully terrible offensive results to show for their work, the Volunteers aren’t a team that we want to back right now. F Nerlens Noel is going to have a field day against the hapless UT offense, and we would be shocked if he didn’t have at least 10 steals and blocks combined by the end of the night. The Wildcats aren’t playing that well either, as they have been double digit favorites in back to back games against the Vanderbilt Commodores and the Texas A&M Aggies, only to just barely beat Vandy, and get whipped by A&M in shocking results. This won’t be another game like that. The Vols were smacked by 25 points when they came to Rupp Arena last year, and there is no reason to think that the results will be any different this time around. There’s just too much talent here for the Cats to not blow away the men in orange and white.

Tennessee vs. Kentucky Pick: Kentucky Wildcats -12

Is there really any man on the Commodores that makes you think that they can stick around with the Wildcats? Talent for talent, there is just no comparison between these two teams, and it is going to show. If the Cats aren’t laying at least a dozen points, it isn’t enough for sure, as we think that this is going to be a 20+ point game that gets brutally ugly in the first half and never gets any nicer. The Dores are shooting themselves in the foot, as they don’t have a foul shooter that is knocking down even 70% from the line this year, and the end result is scoring less than 60 points per game BEFORE conference play even starts. The Wildcats have won five out of six and covered five straight since losing to the Baylor Bears, and that only defeat against the Louisville Cardinals is definitely not one to be bothered about all that much. There’s little reason to think that this game will be anything but a humongous blowout, especially with as well as the Cats are playing, seemingly under the radar.

Kentucky vs. Vanderbilt Pick: Kentucky Wildcats -12.5
Kentucky vs. Vanderbilt Prediction: Kentucky 82 – Vanderbilt 58

This is always one of the biggest games of the year, and this year’s clash between Louisville and Kentucky is no different. These two teams are both contenders for the National Championship this year, though UK’s 23rd national ranking doesn’t exactly suggest that. So far what we have seen out of the Cats is that they have the ability to beat up the bad teams on sheer talent alone, but when it comes to beating some of the best in America, there are some real problems. The loss to the Baylor Bears is long since in the past though, and we think that four more games against suspect teams that have all ended in blowouts have gotten the confidence back in this outfit. This is legitimately still one of the most talented teams in America, and though we do know that C Gorgui Dieng is going to be back for the Cards, we don’t think that it is going to be enough. This one really seems like it is going to be an upset for the Big Blue Nation to us.

Kentucky vs. Louisville Pick: Kentucky Wildcats +8.5
Kentucky vs. Louisville Prediction: Kentucky 76 – Louisville 71

Anyone else smelling this upset in the Big East/SEC Challenge? The Big East is a comfortable favorite to claim the Big East/SEC Challenge, but this is a game that is a heck of a lot more dangerous than it ultimately looks for the one team in the SEC that really shouldn’t be struggling. The Wildcats are looked upon as the best in America right now outside of Indiana and perhaps Duke and Louisville, but we just don’t know. We know that this team is going to be great come March when all of these youngsters learn how to play together, but it just isn’t there yet. Meanwhile, Notre Dame is bringing back a veteran squad with a ton of returners, namely Jack Cooley and Jerian Grant, and these two know what it takes to win the big time games. It wasn’t a mistake that teams like West Virginia, Marquette, Syracuse, and Pittsburgh all came to South Bend last year and lost, and it definitely wasn’t a mistake that this team lost just one game at home all year long last year. The only mistake here? Too many people are going to bet on the Wildcats, thinking that the -1.5 is a sure thing. Not so fast, my friends.

Kentucky vs. Notre Dame Pick: Notre Dame Fighting Irish +1.5

College Basketball Picks: Duke Blue Devils @ Kentucky Wildcats
Date: Tuesday, November 13th, 9:30 ET
Location: Georgia Dome, Atlanta, GA
Duke vs. Kentucky Live TV: ESPN

Without even looking at this college basketball point spread, we know that the Blue Devils aren’t going to really get any respect. Oh, don’t get us wrong. The oddsmakers gave the Dookies all of the respect that they deserve by making them relatively sizeable favorites. However, Kentucky is pictured to be the best team in America, and if it plays like the team that was on the court last Friday against the Maryland Terrapins, it is going to get run off the court by the Blue Devils. Kentucky isn’t a deep team, and its youngsters really didn’t get off to a thrilling start to the campaign. Odds have it, the Cats aren’t going to shoot 46.2 percent from the outside like they did against the Terps, and if that turns out to be the case, there are some men that are going to have to play a heck of a lot better to win this game. Nerlens Noel struggled against the Maryland bigs offensively, and now, he has to try to keep up with Mason Plumlee, one of the best big men in the country. If Seth Curry and Ryan Kelly can knock down some shots from the outside, it’s going to be a Diaper Dandy of a night in front of Dicky V and the rest of the college basketball fans in attendance at the Georgia Dome.

Duke vs. Kentucky Pick: Duke Blue Devils -3.5
Duke vs. Kentucky Prediction: Duke 78 – Kentucky 69
