As you might expect when a high-major 5-seed takes on a mid-major 12-seed, Kentucky women’s basketball opens up as a big favorite over their first round opponent in the NCAA Tournament, James Madison.
According to our good friends at BetMGM, the Cats are currently a 16.5-point favorite with the over/under set at 130.5. If you go off of that, the projected final score would be 73.5-57 in favor of Kenny Brooks‘ team. Kentucky’s moneyline rests at -2000.
For just the second time, Brooks will be coaching against his alma mater, and interestingly enough, the last time he faced the Dukes was also in a tournament format.
