Number 1 rated Kentucky against the NCAA championship hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a blowout, particularly as Kentucky just barely regained that coveted No. 1 spot on the standings for the first time in the earlier two months. Whereas the Wildcats are ahead of the standings and experiencing an 11 game win streak, the Bulldogs can best be described as inconsistent so far in the season.
College football odds
The Kentucky Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a especially unsightly game at home against Alabama, where they garnered their last 15 points at the foul line. Fortunately, the team is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they landed 23-of-29 to retain the win, 77-71. That win, combined with Syracuse dropping their first game of the year, put Kentucky back ahead. Their present 11 game win streak is additionally their best since going 19-0 in the course of the 2009-2010 year.

Georgia will have its hands full struggling with the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Bulldogs garnered an invite to the NCAA championship for the first time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their primary competitors graduated to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost most of their offensive touch, scoring only 61.9 ppg with a lousy 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 sportsbook is favoring Kentucky by 12 points. It may be a bargain taking the Cats, as the game might wind up pretty handily as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is set at 129, but and I would expect this game to go under the total. If Kentucky plays even a little bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense could be successfully shut down all night.
