This is a 10* SWEET 16 SIDE OF THE YEAR on Kentucky.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based on a few different factors:
As note that UCLA is just 10-12 ATS against teams with winning records this season and only 11-23 ATS in its last 34 against good offensive teams which score 77-plus points per contest, while Kentucky is 9-7 ATS this year against good offensive teams which average 77-plus points per contest.
The bottom line: UCLA surged past Cincinnati 79-67 on Sunday, while Kentucky edged by Wichita State 65-62. It was the Wildcats 13th straight victory. Note that the Wildcats play with revenge today though after falling 97-92 at home to the Bruins back on December 3rd. UCLA averages 90.2 PPG and allows 75.2. Kentucky averages 85.3 PPG and allows 71.5. UCLA has been inconsistent at times this year and I think its lack of defensive play comes back to hurt it here finally. The Wildcats are battle tested and play with revenge, play on KENTUCKY.
