Kentucky vs Georgia College Football Odds

The Wildcats are 6-4 on the season (2-4 in SEC play). In terms of competitive nature Kentucky has been very consistent all year long. Their marquee win came vs. Auburn on the road, a game they won 21-14 at Auburn. In losses to to Mississippi State and South Carolina, two teams that are clearly better then the Wildcats, they lost by a combine 9 points. Mike Hartline is the starting Quarterback for Kentucky and has been a non factor all season long. So often the Cats line up running backs or wide receivers behind center and run the option play. The big factor back for this team is Derrick Locke. He has rushed for 741 yards on 150 carries with 5 rushing touchdowns. A true workhorse he has been for them all season long. Randall Cobb has been their number one Wide Receiver this season, he is questionable for Saturday’s game with a shoulder injury. Cobb has caught 32 passes for 384 yards and 4 touchdowns while also rushing for 396 yards and 7 touchdowns. He is a multi threat from behind center or wide out position. The area where Kentucky should have consistent success Saturday night is on the defensive end. They allow 4 less points per game then Georgia and are much better against the pass. Morgan Newton will most likely be starting at QB for the Cats tonight in place of Mike Hartline. Perhaps the true freshman will give this team the boost they need in order to pull off another big SEC road win. Head coach Rich Brooks has done a nice job with this team considering the limited talent he has to work with compared to other SEC powerhouse schools. The x-factor will be the offensive line. If they are able to protect their true freshman QB and form holes for RB Derrick Locke, then Kentucky will have every opportunity to pull off the upset.

Georgia has had a brutal season by their standards. Last year they also under achieved in a big way falling to get to a BCS bowl game with players such as QB Matthew Stafford (#1 overall draft pick), Knowshon Moreno (Top 15 draft pick and starter for the Denver Broncos) and Mohammed Massaquoi. Head coach Mark Richt is known as one of the nations top coaches, however, if the Bulldogs do not start to get back in the Title talks soon, he may very well be on the hot seat. Starting QB Joe Cox has not a very good season. While throwing for 2,059 yards, he has a bad touchdown/interception ratio of 18 to 12 and has completed a tad under 58% of his passes. Richard Samuel has not nearly lived up to his billing as an impact running back. He has collected 395 yards and only two touchdowns this season. Washaun Ealey has started to split carries with him. AJ Green is their impact wide receiver and a guy who is projected to be a big time NFL star. He is a banged up headed into tonight’s game with a shoulder injury but is expected to play. His numbers on the season show 47 catches for 751 yards and 6 touchdowns. On the defensive side of the ball the Bulldogs have really struggled. They allow 26 points per game and the only reason it is that low is due to a blowout win over cupcake opponent in Tennessee Tech (38-0). Expect georgia to struggle tonight with the speed of Kentucky. Overall, the Bulldogs are more talented then the Wildcats which in the end might be enough to get by, especially because they are at home. The spread though is way off, these two teams have very similar stat lines when combining both defensive and offensive numbers. Free pick below.
