Play: Kentucky -17.5 -107
Time: 2 p.m. ET
Reasoning: I hardly ever lay this many points, but this is a good spot for a historic Wildcats team. My power ratings say UK should be favored by 23.5 points. The Wildcats (24-0) have played the tougher schedule and are outscoring opponents by 24.2 ppg at home. South Carolina is 1-5 on the road. The Gamecocks shot just 22.6% in the first meeting, a 58-43 home loss, on Jan. 24. The margin would have been worse had Kentucky not gone nine minutes without a field goal in the second half. Also, Willie Cauley-Stein ran into foul trouble in that one and only played seven minutes in the first half.
Record: 279-204-10 (57.8%)
Bankroll: +259.52%
