Number one ranked Kentucky against the NCAA championship hopefuls Georgia? Seems like a recipe for a crushing defeat, especially as Kentucky just barely regained that coveted No. 1 location on the rankings for the 1st time in the prior 2 months. Whereas the Kentucky Wildcats are on top of the rankings and experiencing an 11 game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be called inconsistent to date in the year.

The Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They are coming off of a particularly unpleasant game at home vs Alabama, where they garnered their previous 15 points at the foul line. Luckily, the team is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they landed 23-of-29 to retain the win, 77-71. That win, along with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the season, put Kentucky back on top. Their recent 11 game win streak is also their greatest since going 19-0 during the 2009-2010 season.

Georgia is going to have its hands full dealing with the Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs garnered an invite to the NCAA championship for the 1st time in the last three years in 2011, but 2 of their main players moved on to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost much of their offensive touch, scoring only 61.9 ppg with a pathetic 39.9 percent field-goal ratio. The Georgia Bulldogs are currently 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 not surprising the sportsbook is favoring the Wildcats by 12 points. It could be a good deal taking the Wildcats, as the game may end up very effortlessly as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is set at 129, but and I would anticipate this match to go under the total. If Kentucky performs even a bit bit of defense, the Dogs’ offense could be effectively shut down all night.
