Kentucky Strong Road Favorite at Georgia

The Wildcats are eight-point favorites over the struggling Bulldogs.

With NCAA Tournament hopes still hanging in the balance, Kentucky basketball is back in the saddle, hitting the road for a second game against the Georgia Bulldogs. 

Stegeman Coliseum will host the desperate Wildcats as they seek a season-sweep over the Dawgs — who've won just one game since the first matchup between the two in Lexington on Jan. 17. 

Betting lines have been released, and Kentucky is a somewhat-heavy favorite away from home. The Action Network has UK as an eight-point favorite, the largest spread the Cats have been favored by since their last game against UGA.

Kentucky's 15-point loss at home to Arkansas on Tuesday ended a six-game cover streak in SEC play. Overall, coach John Calipari's team is 10-14 against the spread. 

Things have also been downhill in the betting department for the Bulldogs, as they've failed to cover a spread in seven games in a row. They also host a 10-14 record ATS entering Saturday afternoon.
