    First L to SC is highly unlikely...

    ML not the correct play IMO. They may lose outright or cover but your odds suck on moneyline. I'm probably going to take them at -7. The only way I would moneyline is in a parlay

    i know the odds on the ml are what they are...at the same time...im really getting sick of spreads...and bad beats on covers....id much rather know that if the team i like loses the game...they lost...even if i have to pay for it....dont really love playing these big ml favorites on the road...but im thinking this may be free money

    The problem is, you don't have much to compare quite yet for these two teams so far this season... Some of the teams that Kentucky has handled will run into this South Car team within the next few games. Honestly, I smell a blowout, but the spread is at 7 cause the bookies have nothing to compare to, and Kentucky is on the road... Like I stated, I am doubting their first L to South Carolina, even on the road. I agree with the southpaw though, ML may be a little too risky... Best bet is go big on the spread, maybe not as big as you were planning, but 1/2 that unit...

    Can USC win outright? The line certainly seems to say the book thinks so - I just don't see how SC doesn't lose by at least 10, even at home. They look like a very mediocre team that will be outmatched under the bright lights of ESPN tonight..

    almost 70% on KY line is still climbing to 8 at some places. Where does the value of ky end. This is their first game as#1 those SC boys will be pumped on their home court. I haven't seen them much this year but they were predicted to be a powerhouse in the SEC in preseason. Do they have anything for UK?

    I understand where you are coming from. you may be better off with lakers ML and Kentucky ML patlay then. at least there is a little return there

    The Over might be the better play as it's hit 16-3 last 19.

    they were predicted to be one of the better teams in the SEC...they have downey who is a star....but they dismissed a key guy holmes...not sure if he was a starter or not...and lost a starter archie....so they are kind of depleted
