Number 1 ranked Kentucky versus the NCAA tournament hopefuls Georgia? Looks like a recipe for a crushing defeat, especially as Kentucky just regained that coveted No. 1 spot on the rankings for the 1st time in the prior two months. Whereas the Wildcats are on top of the rankings and experiencing an eleven game win streak, the Bulldogs can best be termed sporadic so far in the season.

College football odds

Kentucky is 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a particularly unpleasant game at home versus Alabama, where they netted their previous fifteen points at the foul line. Fortunately, the team is pretty good from the free-throw line, where they landed 23-of-29 to retain the win, 77-71. That victory, coupled with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the season, put Kentucky back on top. Their recent eleven game win streak is furthermore their greatest since going 19-0 throughout the 2009-2010 season.

Georgia will have its hands full dealing with the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Bulldogs netted an invite to the NCAA tournament for the 1st time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their main players graduated to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring just 61.9 ppg with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal ratio. The Bulldogs are now 10-9 overall and 1-4 in the SEC.

With the Wildcats averaging 79.5 ppg, and the Bulldogs at 61.9, it’s no surprise the sports book is favoring the Wildcats by 12 points. It may be a bargain taking the Cats, as the game might wind up very easily as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is established at 129, but and I would expect this match to go under the total. If Kentucky plays even a little bit bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense could possibly be successfully shut down all night.
