Kentucky Wildcats vs Arkansas Razorbacks prediction
The Kentucky Wildcats are the more talented team, they’re playing the better ball, and they’re 11-7 ATS on the season. The Arkansas Razorbacks can’t finish games, and they’re 5-14 ATS on the season. Arkansas has failed to cover 8 of its last 10 games. The Bud Walton Arena should be rocking and that likely helps Arkansas for a bit, but eventually talent takes over. I’ll lay the points with Kentucky, as the Hogs are heading in the wrong direction right now.
