Am I the only one that finds this line funny (meaning the Cats are the play)? Of course, I like LSU ML, too...
Pitt +6 220/200
Panthers ain't no one-trick pony

Nope. Here is a cut and paste writeup from someone who is a professional bettor on CBB. Just take it for your amusement and yes, I took them also. :0008
LSU Tigers at Kentucky Wildcats (-10, 136.5)
I think Matt McMahon is a really good coach and it seems like LSU is starting to find its stride under his leadership. They’ve played a weak schedule to this point, so Kentucky does represent a step up in class, but had one of their best defensive performances of the season last time out against a really good Arkansas squad.
LSU has done a really good job of defending the 3-point line, as opponents are only shooting 27.6%. Kentucky is firing away at 39% from 3, a number that is likely to regress as the season goes along. That would be the highest 3P% for a John Calipari team since 2011 at 39.7%. That team went to the Final Four. This one might, but right now, this team is off of the pace of previous teams offensively, even with that outlier 3P%.
Kentucky is shooting under 66% at the free throw line, which may prevent them from extending the lead late in the game. Ten points feels like a lot here in a game likely played to around 67 or 68 possessions. LSU isn’t a great team, but Kentucky’s stats have been padded by blowing out some bad teams. They’ve struggled with solid competition and I think LSU is solid enough to keep this close.
Good stuff, Yanno!
Kentucky feels like smoke in mirrors this year(it's still early). Tshiebwe shoulda left. And KJ Williams is a poor man's Tshiebwe
