The No. 14 Kentucky Wildcats play their first true road game of the season when they tangle with the Georgia Bulldogs on Tuesday in Athens, Ga. The Wildcats (10-3), 1-0 in SEC play, are 8-2 against unranked opponents this season, while the Bulldogs (10-3), playing their SEC opener, have won four in a row and six of seven. Tip-off is set for 9 p.m. ET from Stegeman Coliseum. Georgia is 1-1 against ranked opponents this season.
The Wildcats are 2.5-point favorites in the latest Kentucky vs. Georgia odds, while the over-under for total points scored is set at 142. Before making any Georgia vs. Kentucky picks, check out the college basketball predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.
This model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, has crushed its top-rated college basketball picks against the spread the past three years, returning $2,770 to $100 players. Anybody who has followed it has seen huge returns.
Now, the model has set its sights on Kentucky vs. Georgia. We can tell you that the model is leaning over, and it has generated an extremely strong against-the-spread pick that is hitting in nearly 60 percent of simulations. You can head to SportsLine to see it. Now, here are the college basketball betting lines and trends for Georgia vs. Kentucky:
- Kentucky vs. Georgia spread: Kentucky -2.5
- Kentucky vs. Georgia over-under: 142 points
- Kentucky vs. Georgia money line: Kentucky -150, Georgia +128
- KY: Fourth in the nation in free throw percentage at 80.1
- UGA: Averaging 80.8 points per game
The Wildcats have dominated the Bulldogs through the years and lead the all-time series 127-26, including a 43-17 edge at Athens. Kentucky has won 12 straight, including the last three played at Georgia. A Wildcats victory would give Kentucky its 999th all-time SEC win and mark the seventh time under John Calipari that the Wildcats would open league play 2-0.
Four players average in double figures for Kentucky with freshman guard Tyrese Maxey leading the way at 13.8 points per game. He also is averaging 4.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists. Maxey was a force in a 78-70 win over Louisville on Dec. 28, scoring 27 points and grabbing seven rebounds. It was his first 20-plus point total in over a month.
But just because the Wildcats have owned the Bulldogs through the years, does not guarantee they will win or cover the Kentucky vs. Georgia spread on Tuesday.
That's because the Bulldogs are off to a fast start under second-year coach Tom Crean, who has compiled a 21-24 record at Georgia. The Bulldogs, who are looking for their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2015, average 80.8 points per game, while allowing just 73. Georgia is also looking for its sixth winning season in the past seven years.
The Bulldogs are led by freshman guard Anthony Edwards at 18.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. Edwards has scored in double figures in eight of the past 10 games, including a 37-point performance against then third-ranked Michigan State on Nov. 26. In that game, he hit 7 of 16 3-pointers (43.8 percent).
So who wins Kentucky vs. Georgia? And which side of the spread can you bank on in nearly 60 percent of simulations?
