KY is getting a bit over rated here. History shows that KY trips every time fans get excited, and I'm hedging here. GA by at least 8 imo.

You're a horrible fan and not wanted about around here. Why post this and why bet against your favorite team????

You should of asked UMM who he would bet on. He's historically awful on picking a winner so whatever he picks you take the opposite and win

From a gambling perspective, OP is probably doing the smart thing, just look at the series history.

But I used to bet a lot and NEVER bet against UK in a game I thought they had a chance to win, it just ruined the game for me. Every once in a while, when I knew we were going to get killed anyway, e.g., when Spurrier was beating us by 50 annually, I would go ahead and bet on the other team. But when it figured to be close, no way, just was no fun.

Can't abide by betting on road dog favorites. Or cheering for teams other than Kentucky.

Something that makes Louisville games more appealing when they're good, bet on them, you either win money or you get to watch them lose. That's a win win situation.

I would stay away from UK/UGA. I think you take UL and give the 25. The way BC's offense is, if UL scores 26 they should cover. Also think Petrino will be trying to prove something to the pollsters for putting them at 7.

I'd rather not bet, than bet against my favorite team.
I don't know. I made a lot of money betting against UK when Gillispie was coach. I don't bet on games anymore but this is how I looked at it when betting against the Cats. If I lost the bet at least the Cats won. If I won the bet losses hurt a lot less.

UGA has lost 2 in a row, are on the road, and play Auburn next week. I don't bet but believe UK beats them 31-21.

I picked this game as the most likely upset game for the CATS preseason as it sets up perfectly with UGA coming off an emotional game to rival Fl and Auby on deck. When I handicap a game I consider the likely emotional state of each team. When you look at UGA and think of their preseason goals and aspirations, and look where they are now, as well as the issues they have had at certain positions, they do not look like a team that's ready to come in to hostile venue and steal a win. OTOH UK is literally on fire and improving every game. They are in the thick of the race for the East and will be jacked up and playing balls-to-the-wall. I was heavy on them last week despite the line which was obviously off, and will be heavy again this week.

Just so you know, Georgia has won 9 straight times the week after their "emotional" game against Florida.
