Kentucky vs. Florida

March 16, 2014
img3:15 PM Eastern

Defense wins titles and Florida is a dominant defensive team, beating Missouri (72-49) and Tennessee (56-49) the last two days. Florida has won 25 in a row and faces Kentucky in the SEC Tournament championship game. With a victory, the Gators can add a conference tournament crown to the regular-season title they earned by going a perfect 18-0 in conference play. Florida is on a 5-0 ATS run and faces a very young Kentucky team that had huge expectations, but has been good, not great. The Wildcats are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games overall. The Gators manhandled Kentucky last weekend, 84-65, in the regular-season finale. Three weeks earlier, they defeated the Wildcats 69-59 at Lexington. The Wildcats are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings, so grab the dominant, veteran team in the spotlight against the kids. Play Florida.
