The Kentucky Wildcats will face the Penn State Nittany Lions in the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Day.

Both teams enter the matchup with a 9-3 overall record, but oddsmakers apparently think Penn State has been the more impressive team thus far.

Not long after the bowls were announced, Penn State opened as a seven-point favorite over Kentucky, per Vegas Insider.

That’s a rather large spread, especially for two teams who, on paper, don’t appear to have a touchdown of separation between them, especially on a neutral field that’s probably going to have a stronger UK presence.

While both teams have identical records, their season’s have been far from similar. Penn State began the year with College Football Playoff aspirations. Even after losing Saquon Barkley in the NFL Draft, they still retained a lot of talent and veteran QB heading into the season.

I'd say seven points is about right, if we play like we when we played Missouri or Vanderbilt, but if we play like we did when we beat Florida or Louisville we should be even money.
