College Basketball Wildcats versus Georgia Bulldogs in Jan 24 Sports Wagering

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

Number 1 rated Kentucky versus the NCAA competition hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a blowout, especially as Kentucky barely regained that coveted No. 1 spot on the standings for the first time in the earlier 2 months. Whereas the Wildcats are ahead of the standings and enjoying an 11 game win streak, the Bulldogs can best be called inconsistent to date in the season.

NFL odds

The Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a particularly ugly game at home versus Alabama, where they garnered their prior 15 points at the foul line. Thankfully, the squad is pretty good from the free-throw line, where they made 23-of-29 to keep the win, 77-71. That victory, joined with Syracuse dropping their first game of the season, put Kentucky back ahead. Their present 11 game win streak is furthermore their greatest since going 19-0 in the course of the 2009-2010 season.

NFL odds

Georgia will have its hands full dealing with the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Bulldogs garnered an invite to the NCAA competition for the first time in the last three years in 2011, but 2 of their primary competitors graduated to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring simply 61.9 points per game with a terrible 39.9 percent field-goal percentage. The Bulldogs are now 10-9 in total and 1-4 in the SEC.

With the Wildcats averaging 79.5 points per game, and the Bulldogs at 61.9, it’s no surprise the sportsbook is favoring Kentucky by 12 points. It might be a good deal taking the Wildcats, as the game may wind up quite easily as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is established at 129, but and I would expect this game to go under the total. If Kentucky plays even slightly bit of defense, the Dogs’ offense could possibly be effectively shut down all night.
