Number one ranked Kentucky vs the NCAA championship hopefuls Georgia? Sounds like a recipe for a blowout, specifically as Kentucky just barely regained that coveted No. 1 berth on the standings for the 1st time in the prior 2 months. Whilst the Kentucky Wildcats are ahead of the standings and enjoying an eleven game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be described as inconsistent so far in the season.

While the Kentucky Wildcats are ahead of the rankings and enjoying an 11 game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be termed sporadic thus far in the year.
Sports betting
The Kentucky Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a particularly unpleasant game at home versus Alabama, where they earned their prior 15 points at the foul line. Fortunately, the team is fairly good from the free-throw line, where they made 23-of-29 to hold onto the win, 77-71. That win, coupled with Syracuse dropping their first game of the year, put Kentucky back ahead. Their present 11 game win streak is also their best since going 19-0 throughout the 2009-2010 year.
College football odds
Georgia will have its hands full struggling with the Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs earned an invite to the NCAA championship for the first time in the last three years in 2011, but 2 of their principal players graduated to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring simply 61.9 ppg with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal ratio. The Georgia Bulldogs are now 10-9 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 Kentucky by 12 points. It might be a bargain taking the Cats, as the game could wind up quite effortlessly as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is established at 129, but and I would anticipate this game to go under the total. If Kentucky performs even somewhat bit of defense, the Dogs’ offense may very well be effectively shut down all evening.
