Lipscomb at Kentucky picks and predictions
Prediction
Kentucky 97, Lipscomb 71
Moneyline
PASS.
There is no value on Kentucky (-5000) to win Tuesday.
Against the spread
BET KENTUCKY -21.5 (-105).
Kentucky is 1-0-1 ATS this season as a favorite of 21.5 points or more, scoring 100 or more points in each game. It is coming off a massive road win against Duke and facing a Lipscomb team that did not see a double-digit scorer in its last game.
The Bisons have struggled this season against competition far worse than what it will see against the Wildcats.
Over/Under
BET OVER 160.5 (-105).
The Bisons have scored 77 or more points in 3 of their 5 games this season, while the Wildcats have scored 100 or more points in 2 of their 3.
Expect Kentucky to carry the load Tuesday, but Lipscomb will be able to add enough on to tip the total.
