Rob Vinciletti: Tuesday SEC Power Play

[golden contender]

The NCAAB Comp play is on Arkansas at 9:00 eastern. The Razorbacks are ranked slightly better in the RPI Scale at 18 then Kentucky is at 25. However, the home to road dichotomy between these teams is where the real difference is. Kentucky shows flashes of solid play but are clearly not as good as in years past and they struggle on the road where they are 4-7 and 1-4 vs top 50 teams with all 4 of those loses by 9 or more. In fact Kentucky is 1-15 ats when they lose as a road dog. They are 1-9 ats on the road with a 153 to 160 point total the last few seasons. The Wildcats have failed to cover 4 of 5 vs teams who average 77 or more per game. Arkansas is 14-5 ats when they win and they have won and covered 4 straight. Arkansas is 14-1 at home this season. The winning team in this series has covered 14 straight. Arkansas has revenge and should get the cover tonight. Rob V- GC Sports
