Music City Madness

The Kentucky Wildcats and Clemson Tigers will slug it out in Nashville tonight in the Music City Bowl. The Wildcats are looking for a repeat of 2006 when they upset the Tigers as 11-point underdogs.

The Wildcats should have the crowd on their side, but that could very well be the only advantage Kentucky has in this match-up, as Clemson is stronger at most positions.
