Captains: DB Eric Stokes, DL Malike Herring, OG Trey Hill

Matchup predictor: Georgia has a 85.9% chance to win, according to ESPN’s Football Power Index.

Series history: Currently the Bulldogs lead the overall series 59-12-2 over Kentucky. Georgia has won the last ten, with the Wildcats last victory coming in 2009.

Prediction: Georgia is not a good matchup from Kentucky’s standpoint. The Bulldogs are more than happy to chew the clock and run for 250 yards and usually that’s Kentucky’s game, but with quarterback Terry Wilson out due to injury, Auburn transfer Joey Gatewood will have to try and win with his arm, something Georgia’s elite secondary will look to take advantage of.

I’m taking Georgia 32-3, the Bulldogs dominate this one.

Georgia vs Kentucky: Expert picks and predictions

The UGA Wire staff presents our weekly expert score, stat and game predictions ahead of Georgia football at Kentucky.

The No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs (3-1, 3-1) travel to Lexington this Saturday to face off against the Kentucky Wildcats (2-3, 2-3).

Kentucky began the season ranked 23rd but have since dropped after losing three of five games.  The Wildcats are definitely sneaky this year, beating a Mississippi State team by a score of 24 – 2 as well as Tennessee by 27 points.  That margin of victory over the Vols is larger than Georgia’s.

Georgia enters this game coming off a loss at Alabama two weeks ago and a bye week last week.  Kentucky comes into this matchup following a 20-10 loss last week to Missouri.

Saturday’s kickoff is scheduled for 12:00 P.M. ET on SEC Network.

With that said, the UGA Wire staff has put together a number of score, stat and game predictions ahead of Saturday’s matchup.

Here are the picks:

Georgia basketball falls to Kentucky at home

The Kentucky Wildcats overcame a six point halftime deficit to defeat the Georgia Bulldogs in Athens by a score of 78-69 this Tuesday night.

Kentucky pulled away late Tuesday night to beat Tom Crean’s Georgia Bulldogs at home by a score of 78 – 69.

What may have seemed like an easy conference victory for the Wildcats, the final score doesn’t quite represent the type of game the Dawgs put up.

Georgia finished out the first half leading Kentucky by a score of 37 – 31, led by no other than freshman guard and future NBA lottery pick, Anthony Edwards.  Edwards, the Atlanta native finished the contest with a game high 23 points on 8/17 shooting as well as 3/9 from three-point range.  Joining Edwards in the double digit category was Jordan Harris, who finished the night with 10 points, helping to electrify the sellout crowd in Athens.  Edwards also tacked on 5 rebounds and 2 assists, but it wasn’t quite enough to beat John Calipari’s disciplined squad.

Kentucky featured a much more balanced offense, with four players scoring in double digits.  Kentucky spread the floor very nicely and were able to get good spacing for high quality shots.

Leading the Wildcat charge were freshman guard Tyrese Maxey and junior forward Nick Richards.  Maxey finished with 17 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 blocks while Richards had 17 of his own, going along with 7 rebounds.

Kentucky struggled rebounding the ball in the first half as well as shooting free throws, but the Dawgs poor three-point shooting helped the Wildcats stay in the game.  Georgia led by as many as nine points in the first half but just couldn’t hang on late in the 2nd.

Immanuel Quickley hit a three-pointer with 8:09 left in the game to give Kentucky their first lead of the 2nd half.  The game remained close until Quickely hit another dagger three with only 3:59 remaining, giving Kentucky a 66 – 61 lead that eventually snowballed into a Wildcat victory and an agonizing defeat for the Bulldogs.

“I feel like we just didn’t play with toughness in the second half,” Edwards said postgame. “I played bad defense. We all played bad defense.”

Coming off a big upset victory over Memphis, this win would’ve given the Dawgs major brownie points in NCAA Tournament talks.  It was a hard fought game until the last minute and shows Georgia can hoop with anyone this season.
