If those first 4 were able to come back for us it would be huge, figuratively and literally. I am perplexed by the Simmons situation.

3 points for the home field advantage. Interesting take from the oddsmakers.

Anyone know if Cooper Mays is back? That would at least be a benefit. We've been getting killed with these O-line injuries.

I will be putting a hefty amount of money on TN +4

I don't need no stinking points, Tennessee wins straight up.

Kentucky might have more depth but we have enough difference makers to make an impact.

Leach wanted to spread out UK’s defense. I expect Heupel to do something similar to wear them down.

Kingston Harris is OL not DL. Would be nice to have him back. I assume Cooper is back since he played some against Bama. So, C Mays must be Cade - I bet he plays too.

Heupel & OL coach got a tough decision to make on coop Mays. Next 2 teams have big DLs and Tennessee OL gotta do better than they did bs Bama. I’d move Carvin back to center, Cade at guard, if he can go.

This one is a Vols lock

Difference from 7-5 or 6-6. A lot on the game

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

KY gets 3-4 points for the home field off the top. Then they bait you to throw in one way or the other.

If we start fast…. Oh buddy

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

I remember a similar line vs Mizzou.. who also gave Kentucky all they could handle

I’m thinking some wildcat is about to indirectly buy me a new 4 wheeler

If we start fast…. Oh buddy

We almost always do

If were focused and ready and play like we are capable, the cats are going down! GBO!!!!!!

The odds makers only interest is getting an equal amount of money bet on both sides, so that the house wins no matter what. The line is always more about who people think will win than a projection rationally based on the match ups on the field.

No. 17 Kentucky vs. Tennessee odds heading into game week

Why would we have opened as favorites?
