Number 1 rated Kentucky versus the NCAA competition hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a blowout, specifically as Kentucky barely regained that coveted No. 1 location on the rankings for the first time in the prior two months. While the Wildcats are at the top of the rankings and relishing an 11 game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be called sporadic so far in the year.

Sports betting

Kentucky is 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They are coming off of a particularly unpleasant game at home vs Alabama, where they earned their prior 15 points at the foul line. Thankfully, the team is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they landed 23-of-29 to keep hold of the win, 77-71. That win, combined with Syracuse dropping their first game of the season, put Kentucky back at the top. Their recent 11 game win streak is furthermore their greatest since going 19-0 throughout the 2009-2010 season.

College football odds

Georgia is going to have its hands full struggling with the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs earned an invite to the NCAA competition for the first time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their principal competitors moved on to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost much of their offensive touch, scoring just 61.9 points per game with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal ratio. The Georgia Bulldogs are currently 10-9 overall and 1-4 in the SEC.

With the Wildcats averaging 79.5 points per game, and the Georgia Bulldogs at 61.9, it is not surprising the sportsbook is favoring Kentucky by 12 points. It could be a good deal taking the Wildcats, as the game may end up very easily as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is set at 129, but and I would expect this match to go under the total. If Kentucky plays even somewhat bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense could be properly shut down all evening.
