Number 1 ranked Kentucky versus the NCAA championship hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a crushing defeat, specifically as Kentucky just barely regained that coveted No. 1 location on the rankings for the 1st time in the previous two months. Whilst the Kentucky Wildcats are ahead of the rankings and experiencing an 11 game win streak, the Bulldogs can best be described as inconsistent to date in the season.

Sports betting

The Kentucky Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They are coming off of a especially ugly game at home against Alabama, where they earned their previous 15 points at the foul line. Thankfully, the squad is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they made 23-of-29 to hold onto the win, 77-71. That win, along with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the year, put Kentucky back ahead. Their recent 11 game win streak is additionally their greatest since going 19-0 during the 2009-2010 year.

Football odds

Georgia is going to have its hands full facing the Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Bulldogs earned an invite to the NCAA championship for the 1st time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their main players advanced to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring simply 61.9 ppg with a pathetic 39.9 percent field-goal proportion. The Bulldogs are now 10-9 in total and 1-4 in the SEC.

With the Kentucky Wildcats averaging 79.5 ppg, and the Bulldogs at 61.9, it’s no surprise the sportsbook is favoring the Wildcats by 12 points. It may be a bargain taking the Wildcats, as the game may wind up quite effortlessly as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is set at 129, but and I would anticipate this game to go under the total. If Kentucky performs even a little bit of defense, the Dogs’ offense could be efficiently shut down all night.
