A tough start to the campaign for Kentucky, losing two of three. That included a 42-41 loss to Ole Miss as a 7-point favorite and a 29-13 beatdown by Auburn in Kentucky's only game against a Top 20 opponent. They come off an unimpressive 24-2 win over Mississippi State as the UK offense really struggled, gaining 157 total yards. The ground game had just 84 yards (2.6 yards per carry) while the offense was 4-of-14 on third down. That game was at home and now they have to head out to a sea of orange in Knoxville to face their second Top 20 foe. Tennessee has won nine of its last 11 games dating back to last season with the losses coming to No. 1 Alabama (2019) and No. 3 Georgia (last week). Tennessee has only lost to Kentucky twice since 1984. The Vols won 17-13 at Kentucky a year ago and have won 17 straight against the Wildcats in Neyland Stadium, including 24-7 in 2018. The wagering value is on the home team to win the game. Play Tennessee on the moneyline for a Max Play.
