In a highly anticipated matchup, No. 15 Kentucky will face off against No. 4 Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee in their regular-season finale. The game is a rematch from earlier in the season where Tennessee secured an impressive 11-point victory over Kentucky. Tennessee is heading into the game off of an SEC regular season title win, while Kentucky has won four straight games. Both teams have explosive offenses and star guards, making for an exciting matchup. The game will take place on Saturday, March 9 at 4 p.m. ET and will be televised on CBS.
Despite Tennessee’s recent success, Kentucky is in a better position than when they first faced off, and they have the potential to cover the spread against Tennessee’s strong offense. However, the Vols are favored to win, and with Thompson-Boling Arena likely to be a difficult environment for the Wildcats, the game could turn into another high-scoring affair. Ultimately, the prediction for the game is Kentucky +8, with a potential for it to be a close match.
