Premium Pick

Kentucky is 5-1 and the only loss was to Kansas. The Wildcats have averaged 105 points in their past three games, including 118-82 over Marshall on Friday. Kentucky scored 69 points in the first half and shot 61 percent for the game while hitting 16 of 27 from 3-point range. All of which has overshadowed Kentucky's defense, which is holding opponents to 72.6 points and a .406 field goal percentage. D.J. Wagner led the Wildcats with 28 points, and Antonio Reeves added 23 against the Thundering Herd, who shot 42 percent. Miami will play better defense against Kentucky as it allows 72.6 points per game, but the Hurricanes haven't played since Nov. 19, when they defeated Kansas State 91-83, and this will be their first road game. Look for Kentucky to cool off somewhat, but still get the win and cover. Take Kentucky (Max Play), and bet this game to stay UNDER.
