Number 1 rated Kentucky versus the NCAA championship hopefuls Georgia? Sounds like a recipe for a crushing defeat, particularly as Kentucky just regained that coveted No. 1 berth on the standings for the 1st time in the earlier 2 months. Whilst the Kentucky Wildcats are on top of the standings and enjoying an eleven game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be termed sporadic to date in the year.
College football odds
Kentucky is 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a especially ugly game at home against Alabama, where they netted their previous 15 points at the foul line. Fortunately, the squad is fairly good from the free-throw line, where they landed 23-of-29 to keep the win, 77-71. That win, coupled with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the season, put Kentucky back on top. Their recent eleven game win streak is also their greatest since going 19-0 during the 2009-2010 season.

Georgia will have its hands full struggling with the Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs netted an invite to the NCAA championship for the 1st time in the last 3 years in 2011, but 2 of their principal players advanced to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring only 61.9 ppg with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal ratio. The Georgia Bulldogs are now 10-9 in total and 1-4 in the SEC.
With the Kentucky Wildcats averaging 79.5 ppg, and the Georgia Bulldogs at 61.9, it is no wonder the sports book is favoring the Wildcats by 12 points. It could be a good deal taking the Cats, as the game might wind up quite 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 performs even a little bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense could be successfully shut down all evening.
