Without further ado, let’s dive into the latest odds and predictions for Florida and Kentucky.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-odds-for-florida-vs-kentucky">Odds for Florida vs. Kentucky</h2>



Coming into the game, Florida is a 3.5 point underdog to Kentucky going to Lexington, <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/ncaab">per FanDuel</a>. The total is set at 166.5 points.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-final-score-predictions-for-florida-vs-kentucky">Final score predictions for Florida vs. Kentucky</h2>



BPI Predicted winner: Kentucky BPI Predicted point differential: 3.1 BPI Win probability (for Kentucky): 62.1% BPI Matchup Quality: 91.8



ESPN’s BPI is a model designed to provide a statistical comparison between two teams and predict future success. Here, the Gators are projected to lose to the Wildcats by a little over three points, so it’s very similar to the Vegas line.



Despite that, this is a highly rated matchup, per ESPN’s BPI. It’s the third highest ranked game of the Saturday slate and the highest ranked SEC matchup.



KenPom Predicted final score: Florida 83, Kentucky 82 KenPom Win probability (for Florida): 52%



KenPom flipped the prediction and picked Florida to win a tight game on the road but one point. The percentage at just over 50% doesn’t inspire much confidence, so this is pretty much a pick ‘em from a betting standpoint.



KenPom is another predictive system for college basketball. It’s designed to show how strong a team is at a given time, without taking factors like injuries into account.
