How resilient are the Georgia Bulldogs (7-2 SU, 3-4-1 ATS)? (Wikimedia Image)

That’s the main theme for Saturday’s SEC matchup with the Kentucky Wildcats (6-3 SU, 4-4 ATS) at Commonwealth Stadium. The Dawgs have to muster up some resolve after getting steamrolled 49-10 by Florida (-7.5), a loss that puts Georgia on the outer fringes of title contention at No. 13 on the BCS charts.

Kentucky has only beaten Georgia once in 11 games, and once in six games ATS. That was two years ago when they last met in Lexington, a 24-20 Wildcats win as 6.5-point home dogs. Kentucky gets 11 points this time around.

The under is 6-2 for Kentucky, riding a combination of a strong defensive line and a mediocre offense. The Bulldogs offensive line is vulnerable after 10 weeks of wear and tear. The Cats can keep this one close; they’re 2-3 SU and 3-2 ATS as underdogs.
