Number 1 rated Kentucky against the NCAA tournament hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a blowout, especially as Kentucky just regained that coveted No. 1 berth on the standings for the 1st time in the previous two months. While the Wildcats are ahead of the standings and enjoying an eleven game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be termed inconsistent so far in the season.
College football odds
The Kentucky Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They are coming off of a especially ugly game at home vs Alabama, where they earned their prior 15 points at the foul line. Fortunately, the squad is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they made 23-of-29 to keep hold of the win, 77-71. That win, coupled with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the season, put Kentucky back ahead. Their recent eleven game win streak is also their greatest since going 19-0 throughout the 2009-2010 season.
Super Bowl odds
Georgia will have its hands full facing the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs earned an invite to the NCAA tournament for the 1st time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their primary players graduated to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost much of their offensive touch, scoring merely 61.9 ppg with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal proportion. The Georgia Bulldogs are currently 10-9 total and 1-4 in the SEC.
With the Wildcats averaging 79.5 ppg, and the Georgia Bulldogs at 61.9, it is not surprising the sportsbook is favoring Kentucky by 12 points. It may be a bargain taking the Wildcats, as the game may end up very effortlessly as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is established at 129, but and I would expect this game to go under the total. If Kentucky plays even slightly bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense may very well be efficiently shut down all evening.
