SportsLine Model Projections
SportsLine's computer model, which enters Week 10 on an 80-77 run on top-rated picks, projects No. 13 Tennessee to defeat No. 6 Kentucky 27-19 in a Saturday 6:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The model gives the Volunteers a 53% chance to cover the 6.5-point spread and favors the under on the 49.5-point total at 62%. Kentucky, under first-year head coach Will Stein, has surged to a 7-1 record (5-1 SEC) but faces its toughest road test at Neyland Stadium, where Tennessee has covered in every SEC home game this season. The Volunteers' defense is expected to keep the game in the 40s.
