The SEC Tournament semifinals tip off Saturday at 1 p.m. ET with Alabama against Kentucky.

Alabama cruised into the semifinals after securing a double-digit victory over top-seed Auburn, while Kentucky knocked off Georgia, 62-49, in the quarterfinals to keep its SEC Championship dream alive.

Before you make any kind of pick on this matchup that has so much on the line, you need to see what SportsLine handicapper Michael Rusk has to say.

Finishing his first novel, "Why Vegas Never Closes," Rusk built his name by exploiting flaws in public betting. With his economics and statistics background, Michael uses multiple algorithms pooling with recency bias to produce profitable picks. And that's exactly what "The Prodigy" has been doing recently, entering this weekend on a strong 10-6 run on his college hoops selections.

Now, Rusk takes aim at this SEC showdown and his pick is in. Will Kentucky (-4) take care of business and cover, or will Alabama use the momentum from Friday's dominant victory over Auburn and stun the Wildcats?

Rusk spotted a flaw in the line and jumped all over one side of the spread... Join SportsLine now to find out which side of Alabama vs. Kentucky you should be all over, and what flaw in the line exists, all from a handicapper on a 10-6 run on his college basketball picks.
