Does it look like a sucker bet to take Kentucky??

[curt]

I see where Kentucky is a 1 point favorite over unproven Miss.St. All they have to do is win the game against a team that is undefeated but really hasn't played anybody. Does this look too good to be true? Thanks guys.

I agree - and I have the same concern about being suckered.

Pitino has Kentucky's number but if that were not the case and Kentucky was coming into this undefeated i think this spread would be a whole lot higher.

I'll take Kentucky

It does, but looking at the stats they look pretty even. Miss. St. has the rebounding and turnover edge. Timmy Bowers could lead the Bulldogs to the victory. Kentucky certainly has played the better comp, though.

Absolutely NOT a sucker bet..

Look at Notre Dame and Pittsburgh last night, undefeated team playing agaist a quality team. ND almost pulled that sucker out and they had ND +10..

Miss State if they werent undefeated would be given like 4 points, this line is perfect to hammer Kentucky on...

Kentucky is going to eat up Miss St tonight

I see that this line hasn't move much. I figured Kentucky would at least move to -3. I can't understand what is going on here. Kentucky looks like the much better team regardless of where the game is. I still thinks this looks just too good to be true.

being a lontime follower of the sec, this smells like a miss st win to me.. just my 2 cents.. the road is tough down here in the south fellas.

Thanks for the input SSI. I always respect your opinion as I think you are one of the best basketball handicappers. Thanks again.

curt, just now starting to ease into college bb ever so slightly now that we are heading into conference play and football is winding down.. im going to back miss st in this one, it fits my criteria almost perfectly.. thanks for comments as well..

I FOLLOW THE SEC MORE THAN ANY OTHER CONFERENCE. MISSISSIPPI ST DOES HAVE A FINE TEAM, BUT SO DID VANDY. SEC TEAMS OTHER THAN KY PLAY VERY EASY PRE-CONFERENCE SCHEDULES. I HAVENT EXACTLY LOOKED AT STATES SCHEDULE, BUT A LOT OF YEARS SEC TEAMS GO INTO CONFERENCE PLAY WITH UNBEATON RECORDS ONLY TO FINISH WITH A LOSING RECORD. IM NOT PLAYING THIS GAME MAINLY JUST SO I CAN WATCH IT WITHOUT ANY PRESSURE OTHER THAN BEING A CAT FAN. IF I WAS TO PLAY THIS GAME I WOULD PLAY KY.

GOOD LUCK
