It has been two years since Kentucky and North Carolina last met, but the stakes feel higher this time around.
The Wildcats have won the last two matchups in this blue-blood series, but Tuesday night brings a different challenge to Rupp Arena. Kentucky enters with a high-octane offense, while UNC brings a physical, veteran squad looking to muddy the waters.
Here is how the books see it and how we expect it to play out.
The final odds for Kentucky basketball and UNC
- Spread: Kentucky -5.5
- Moneyline: Kentucky -245 | UNC +198
- Total: 160.
