Based on their results without looking at scores, it's arguable whether #25 Kentucky (22-8, 12-5) should even be ranked. They've only beaten one ranked team all year (albeit a good one, then #6 Louisville, now #11) and have lost to four of them. Yet, the Wildcats were close in every one of those games - four away from Michigan State, five away from then #20 Baylor, five away from UNC, and their latest (and worst) showing, 10 away from Florida on Feb. 15. Will the NCAA tournament committee respect their competitiveness, or wonder why they can't win the big game and seed them accordingly?

Another close loss against a top team like #1 Florida (28-2, 17-0) today at 12:00 pm EST (CBS) might only solidify Kentucky's reputation for big game whiffs, even if they're on the road and underdogs by nine points against the top ranked team in the land. They need a win today, a win over Florida in the conference tournament, or a conference tournament championship (if Florida loses in the early rounds) if they want to avoid being the scariest five or six seed in the tournament (and move up to a four or even a three).

Though the Gators have blown out their last two opponents (spurring a one-game suspension for South Carolina hothead Frank Martin), I'm not buying the nine points Vegas is taking from them. This game means too much for Kentucky for a nine-point loss. Unfortunately for the Wildcats, the game also means an undefeated regular season for Florida and retention of the #1 ranking. Plus, they're the better squad. I think they win by 5-7 points. Kentucky for the cover. FLA for the win.
