Betting Pick & Score Prediction

The Kentucky Wildcats have enough talent this season to walk away with yet another national title. The Wildcats are young, but extremely well rounded. It will be tough for a team to anyone to knock off the Kentucky Wildcats in a 40 minute game. The Wildcats defense will need to improve to win a national title. This is going to be a great game, but the Kentucky Wildcats just have much more talent, and an ability to score than the Louisville Cardinals. The final bet in this game is the Kentucky Wildcats -2 over the Louisville Cardinals on Wednesday.
