The Florida State Seminoles (7-5) limp into Nashville to play the Kentucky Wildcats (7-5) in the Music City Bowl without nearly a third of its roster because of an academic cheating scandal and other rules violations. Oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com , who originally had Kentucky as a -3.0 favorite have not adjusted the betting line having installed the Wildcats a -9.0 favorite ATS with a -420 money line price. The total is holding at 57.
Among the missing Seminoles are LB Dekoda Watson, CB Patrick Robinson and backup QB Xavier Lee. FSU QB Drew Weatherford will h ave no safety net as he tries to deliver the ball to WR Greg Carr and all-purpose back Preson Parker. Effective power rushing would help FSU rest its under manned defense, but that hasn’t been a strong suit all year.
Line backer Wesley Woodyard and the Wildcats defense figure to keep it that way. Kentucky isn’t at full strength either, with second leading rusher Derrick Locke out with a broken rib and WR Keenan Burton listed as doubtful from a knee strain.
The Wildcats are defending their Music City Bowl title from 2006 after defeating Clemson28-20.
