(NCAAB) Hofstra vs. Kentucky,
Point Spread: -25.00 | -110.00 Kentucky (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Kentucky
Rating: 8*

The No. 7 Kentucky Wildcats will take on Hofstra Pride at Barclays Center in Brooklyn Sunday afternoon. Kentucky is coming off a 87-63 win against Valparaiso as it bounced back from a 97-92 loss to UCLA. Hofstra meanwhile had won four straight before coming up short in a 81-71 loss to St. Bonaventure last Tuesday.

The Wildcats are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite of 13 points or greater and 6-1 ATS in their last seven neutral site games as a favorite. I think the loss to UCLA as an 11-point favorite worked as a wake up call for the Wildcats, and I don't see them underestimating any team in the nearest future. "Coming off the loss, we wanted to get things rolling early," Kentucky's senior forward Derek Willis told reporters after the win against Valparaiso. "We keyed in on the things we messed up last game against UCLA. We came out a lot more focused and had way more energy." The Wildcats are the superior team by a mile, and I expert them to cover the spread.
