Ready to make some money watching the Wildcats? The opening line is here for Saturday’s matchup between Kentucky and Yale.

Out in Las Vegas the Wildcats opened as 14-point favorites over the Bulldogs from the Ivy League. At most sports books you’ll see that number has already grown to Kentucky -15.5 or more. The total is 138.5.

Yale is 6-2 ATS this season, covering in two of their last three games. The over has only hit in one Yale game in 2022. Kentucky has not been as proficient against the spread, especially as of late, covering only once in the last four games.

Kentucky defeated Yale in its only previous meeting in 1961. The Wildcats have met a couple of Ivy League teams in the NCAA Tournament under John Calipari, eliminating Harvard in 2017 and Princeton in 2013. Kentucky is 17-3 all-time against Ivy League opponents.

Roy Philpott and Mark Wise will be on the call for the SEC Network Saturday afternoon. Tip-off is set for 1 pm EST at Rupp Arena.
