Just for the record, here are all of Louisville's home results over the last two years:

Kentucky W 28-0
East Carolina W 59-7
Oregon State W 63-27
North Carolina W 69-14
Pittsburgh W 42-20
Rutgers W 56-5
Syracuse W 41-17

See, it's not just Big East opponents they've been beating up on. Pretty much everyone that comes into Papa John's gets hammered. When a 22 point win over Pitt (in which they did cover, I remember betting it) is their closest home win in the last two years, I think a 22.5 point spread is pretty good.

Both UNC and OSU were horrendous last year.

And Kentucky will be leaps and bounds better in 2006 than in 2005. Kentucky is a sleeper for a bowl game, and Rafael Little is one of the most underrated players in the country. I feel this game will be way too close to 22 to really NEED to bet on it. I don't know if this is a pretty common thought, but in games like UL-UK, a point move in the line doesn't entice me personally.
