Kentucky at LSU

John Calipari is a master recruiter as we saw when he was at UMass, and Memphis. Now that he has the Kentucky brand he is getting NBA ready players. There is a lot of shuffling form year to year, and it often takes time for all the great players to come together. They have not lost a game by more than 5 points, and this team improves every time on the court. They are also an overtime two-point loss away from winning eight in a row. LSU piled up a lot of wins early starting 9-2, but as the schedule has stiffened, the wins aren't coming so easy, as the Bayou Bengals are just 3-4 in their last seven games. The Tigers' problems vs. good teams is well noted, as they are 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight vs. a team over .600. Kentucky has dominated here, at 6-1 ATS in their last seven trips. Back the Cats.
