NCAAB - 12-13-2025 - PointSpreadTake Kentucky
Kentucky laying -4.5 feels like the right side given how well they’ve bounced back and the way they’ve controlled games at home. Their most recent outing was a 103–67 win over North Carolina Central on December 9, where Jasper Johnson had 22 points and Otega Oweh added 21 as the Wildcats shot 61% from the field and dominated the boards 35-221. That performance came just days after a tough loss to Gonzaga, and it showed how quickly Kentucky can reset and overwhelm opponents with their depth. Averaging 85.5 points per game while holding teams to just 67, the Wildcats have the balance to dictate tempo and wear down Indiana over 40 minutes.
Indiana, meanwhile, is coming off a 113–72 win over Penn State on December 9, highlighted by Lamar Wilkerson’s 44-point explosion. The Hoosiers average 88.2 points per game and shoot over 50% from the field, but they’ve also shown vulnerability against stronger defenses, dropping games to Louisville and Minnesota earlier this month. Kentucky’s size inside with Malachi Moreno and Brandon Garrison, combined with Oweh’s scoring and Denzel Aberdeen’s steady backcourt play, gives them the tools to slow Indiana’s perimeter attack. With the Wildcats’ ability to rebound, protect the rim, and share the ball, laying -4.5 looks justified — Kentucky has the defensive edge and home-court advantage to cover.
