Kentucky Wildcats Football 2024

Kentucky started the 2023 season at 5-0 before a drubbing at the hands of Georgia kicked off a three-game losing streak and an underwhelming showing in SEC play. But the Wildcats will look to be more competitive in the SEC in 2024 with the arrival of Georgia transfer QB Brock Vandagriff.

Kentucky boasts the longest-tenured head coach in the SEC with Mark Stoops, but can he lead the Wildcats to more thans seven wins in 2024?

Here's how you can bet on Kentucky this season, and some key things to know.

Betting on the Kentucky Wildcats

Kentucky Point Spreads

Point spreads are a popular bet one can make on either team in a college football game and are based on the margin of victory for the winning team.

A Kentucky spread might look like this:

  • Kentucky +3.5 (-110)
  • Alabama -3.5 (-110)

A 31-28 loss for Kentucky is still a win for spread bettors since the three-point margin of defeat is less than the 3.5-point spread. Spread tickets on the Wildcats would cash with any loss of three or fewer points, or an outright win.

FAQ: Everything you need to know about point spreads

Kentucky Over/Unders

Over/unders, or totals, are bets on the number of points scored in the game. Kentucky was one of the best teams in the nation to the Over in the regular season in 2023 at 9-4.

FAQ: Betting the point total, explained | What is a push?

Kentucky Moneylines

While spread bets depend on the amount of the victory, moneyline bets are a bit simpler, as all that matters is which team wins. Let's look at an example:

  • Kentucky -160
  • Tennessee +180

The minus (-) and plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Kentucky the favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think in terms of $100 increments. A wager on the Wildcats odds would mean every $160 bet nets $100. And it's the opposite for underdogs: Here, the Tennessee moneyline was set at +180, meaning a $100 wager would profit $180.

Moneylines are also commonly used when making parlays, which are multiple bets tied into one. Let’s say you bet on Kentucky's moneyline and the Over, both bets would need to win for that parlay to be successful. The risk may be greater, but so is the reward with increased odds. Use our Odds Calculator to calculate any bet amount or conversion.

Kentucky Props

Player props are bets on how much of a specific statistic a player will accumulate.

For example, you could bet on how many touchdown passes Vandagriff will throw in a game or bet over or under on RB Demie Sumo-Karngbaye's rushing yards. Many skill position players (and some defenders) will have a variety of props available to bet each game.

FAQ: Here’s how prop betting works

Kentucky Futures

Futures are somewhat similar to prop bets in the way both are monitored over the course of a season. However, most future bets are focused on end of season success. Examples of futures are:

  • Kentucky Wildcats odds to win the SEC
  • Kentucky Wildcats odds to reach the College Football Playoff
  • Kentucky Wildcats odds to win the College Football Playoff

If you think the Wildcats can compete with the top teams in the SEC this season, this is the bet to make. These types of bets are called futures, and they're just wagers on things that settle at the end of the year. For a full list of college football futures, click or tap here.
