Saturday Down South’s Michael Bratton and Chris Marler predict the winner of Saturday’s game between Kentucky and Central Michigan.
Here is what they had to say about the game:
Kentucky -17 vs. Central Michigan
Michael: Central Michigan may have stood a better chance (the Chippewas went 8-5 last season) before the team’s running back went and shot off at the mouth, calling out Kentucky’s defense (which may be fair) and Benny Snell (not fair at all). The CMU running back just wrote a check his defense can’t possibly cash. These comments also came after Snell personally promised Big Blue Nation a special season was coming.The only hope for CMU here may be that Terry Wilson proves to be a bust at quarterback and costs Kentucky the game. Otherwise, Snell may manage to carry his team on his back by himself in this one. I’ll take the Wildcats to win but CMU to cover.
Kentucky 30 CMU 20
Chris: I love MACtion just as much as the next guy, and Central Michigan has beaten a Power 5 team three years in a row. However, they only return 10 starters from last year’s team. I think Kentucky has a lot to prove this year after giving away a win vs. Florida, a win vs. Ole Miss, and subsequently a 9-3 season. Kentucky wins and covers in their first home game of the season where they are 11-1 in their last 12 openers.
Kentucky 44 CMU 17
