Arkansas Razorbacks at Kentucky Wildcats Prediction
The Razorbacks are 4-0 on neutral courts and are on a roll winning eight of their last nine. However, when they lose they tend to lose by a bunch with five of their last seven losses being by greater than today’s spread. Kentucky won by 14 on the road and 16 at home which would suggest a winning margin in that range this time around.
