Indiana vs Kentucky Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this contest after losing two of their last three, but they have a chance to get a big win here. Kentucky’s latest two losses came against North Carolina and Gonzaga, while Indiana lost to Louisville and a bad Minnesota team. Both teams are shooting around 50% from the field this year, but Kentucky is the much better rebounding team. Both teams have losses to Louisville this season and I know Indiana has the better record, but I don’t really trust them. Take Kentucky to cover at home.
