I asked if you meant bets or money.
Then most of the money is on UK but the public is on TN

NO. Most of the Tickets AND Cash are on UK. The Public is all over Kentucky; based on UKs recent road success. The % Has gone down to 65%, so there is some late money (Sharps) going on UT.

Thats not how that works at all. If tickets and money were on UK the line would make them a favorite, so the books could get action on TN. Since the line is still moving in TN direction the money and or tickets are split. Its called reverse line movement.

Oh Jesus. The Line is NOT moving like it NORMALLY Does. With more Cash on UK, the Line SHOULD have moved toward them, Making UK the favorite. Instead, Tenn has inched up as a 1.5--2 point favorite. FROM opening as a PICK em. Yall can have this... Going to bet my games...

Per Jimmy Hyams, odds makers are drunk for even suggesting the Vols have a chance to win. The entire sports animal evening staff picked Kentucky. They are a very beatable team, especially with their injuries. Not sure why they are being hyped as the best team in the SEC other than that's typically how they get viewed without regard to reality.

If Washington and Tippen both play and are full strength it will be tough for the Vols. If not, it will tough for the Cats.

Kinda hoping Powell goes off tonight from the bench. Maybe not 20+ or anything crazy, but would love to see him drop 3 or 4 from deep in to get him out of his funk lately.

Being a Kentucky kid it'd also be nice to see him do it to the Wildcats.

I had extremely high hopes for Powell but at this time in his career he is just not ready. Maybe he is not a major option in this offense, but he basically just finds a spot on one side of the offense and stands there waiting for a wide open set shot. Not sure why he isn't working hard ( Viscozi) to get open in traffic. Possibly just accurate as a set shooter.

I don't think we have been swept by Kentucky since Barnes has been here. Team has won 7 out of the last 8. We are undefeated at home. JJJ is playing well. Fulky is returning to form.

Yet, I have a tough time seeing us pull this one out. Kentucky at full strength, to me, is the best team in college basketball. Oscar Tshiebwe is the favorite for the Wooden award and is coming off a 27 point performance. As a whole, they seem to just have too much firepower. They have 5 guys who average 9.7 points or more, while we have 2.

Don't get me wrong. I hate Kentucky. I really want to win this one. But there is no shame in losing this game. Most years Cal's teams are overrated. This year, that's not the issue. They are the real deal.

You misunderstood the assignment. The theme was pregame speech, not postgame observations…
