Kentucky Wildcats vs Alabama Crimson Tide Betting Prediction
Now we have the Kentucky Wildcats vs Alabama Crimson Tide Betting Prediction for both teams.
The Kentucky Wildcats (22-10) and Alabama Crimson Tide (24-7) square off in Nashville on Friday night in the SEC Tournament. 9:30 p.m. ET is the scheduled tip time at Bridgestone Arena (SEC Network). Let’s examine the Kentucky vs. Alabama college basketball odds and offer our professional forecasts and picks.
Kentucky, ranked sixth in the SEC bracket and ranked 19th overall, defeated Oklahoma 85-84 on Thursday to advance to this quarterfinal (against-the-spread loss as a -6.5 favorite). The Wildcats, who had lost to the Tide twice in the regular season, made a strong 68.2% field goal in the victory.
Alabama, ranked eighth in the nation, is playing for the first time since defeating Auburn, ranked first at the time, 93-91 in overtime last Saturday (a win against the spread as a +7). In that victory, the nation’s top-scoring team, which averages 91.2 points per game, made 52.2% of their shots from the field. Prior to that victory over the Tigers, UA, the third seed in the SEC Tournament, had lost four of their last five games.
Kentucky Wildcats vs Alabama Crimson Tide Betting Prediction: Wildcats
Here is the Kentucky Wildcats vs Alabama Crimson Tide Betting Prediction for the Wildcats:
During Thursday’s game against Oklahoma, Kentucky experienced a spectrum of emotions. For the majority of the second half, it appeared as though they would easily win, but they botched it in the final few minutes, and a late goal with less than a second remaining gave them the victory. Although the offense scored an incredible 85 points, the defense did a lot of damage, and I don’t think this game will get much easier. With 27 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists, Otega Oweh was the best player.
With an overall record of 22–10, Kentucky will need to play a full game in this match. The Wildcats’ defense is allowing 77.8 points per game, while they are scoring 85.8 points on average. There are a lot of scorers on this club, and you never know who will step up on most nights. Oweh scores 16.2 points a game on average.
- In its last 36 Friday night games, Kentucky has won 34 of them.
- Alabama’s last three night games in the Conference Tournament have all ended in defeat.
- In their last four night games against the Southeastern Conference at Bridgestone Arena, Alabama has lost the first half.
