Kentucky at Texas Preview & Picks

Texas are tipped to cover a big spread in their final home game of the regular season.

The Longhorns have bounced back from the Georgia defeat and they have been a reliable spread bet at home this season.

  • Texas are 4-2-0 ATS at home this season
  • Kentucky are 2-4-0 ATS in their 6 defeats
  • The Under has cashed in 4 of Texas’ last 6 games (1 push)
  • The Under has hit in 7 of Kentucky’s 10 games this season

Head To Head

  • Texas lead the all-time series 1-0
  • Texas beat Kentucky 7-6 when the two teams last met in September 1951

Kentucky Form

Kentucky head to Texas having snapped a four-game losing skid last week to improve their record to 4-6.

The Wildcats opened the season with a 31-0 shutout win over Southern Mississippi, only to then lose 31-6 to South Carolina.

They earned plaudits for a 13-12 loss to then #1-ranked Georgia, and then got back to winning ways as they beat Ohio 41-6 before upsetting top-10 Ole Miss on the road, 20-17.

Kentucky failed to follow that up though as they lost the next four, losing 20-13 to Vanderbilt, 48-20 at Florida, 24-10 to Auburn and 28-18 at Tennessee.

The Wildcats avoided a fifth straight loss however, as they blew out Murray State, 48-6, last weekend.

Texas Form

Texas enter this game having rebounded from the loss to Georgia with three consecutive wins to reach 9-1.

The Longhorns raced out of the blocks with a string of convincing non-conference wins, including a 31-12 victory at defending national champions Michigan.

They then began their SEC campaign with a 35-13 win over Mississippi State, before easing to a 34-3 victory over Oklahoma.

Texas’ perfect start was finally ended in the middle of October as they were beaten 30-15 at home by Georgia, but they have not lost since that night.

The Longhorns rebounded with a 27-24 win at Vanderbilt, before beating Florida 49-17 at home and Arkansas 21-10 on the road.

Verdict

Texas have struggled to maintain their early-season dominance of the opposition, but they have been a reliable spread bet at home.

The Longhorns will want to send a message ahead of the Texas A&M showdown too, so we are leaning towards the hosts delivering the cover.
