The Wildcats were a -220 favorite to win the South Region while Indiana promised a $72.50 payout on every $10 bet with an upset.

The Hoosiers, who are 8-1 Against The Spread when playing in nonconference games, have won 10 of their last 12 games.  The number four seed just narrowly avoided an upset over VCU on Saturday with a 63-61 win. 

Will Sheehey managed to score for Indiana with just 12.7 seconds left in the game, leading his school to victory.  It is the first time the Hoosiers have made the Sweet 16 in over a decade.

"All college basketball teams work really hard," Indiana head coach Tom Crean said. "But these guys have had to come from a long way, a long way, and I'm proud of them."

Kentucky, meanwhile, had no problem putting away number 8 seed Iowa State on Saturday to advance into this year’s Sweet 16 with an 87-71 win. 

Kentucky has lost just two games Straight Up on the season.  They are just 14-21 Against The Spread however.
