New Mexico State is 5-1 against the spread in their last six road games. Kentucky is 8-2 against the spread in their last 10 games following a straight-up win. The over is 10-4 in New Mexico State’s last 14 games against the SEC. The over is 5-1 in Kentucky’s last six home games.

Kentucky is no doubt the better team, but New Mexico State is getting too many points in this game. I expect the Aggies will score at least 10 points, and that will be enough for them to cover the spread. Kentucky will score but this isn't a game where they get over 40 points. Back New Mexico State against the spread.
