The No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs (5-0) are set to take on the No. 20 Kentucky Wildcats (5-0) on Saturday night.
The Bulldogs will need to start off fast against the Wildcats, who dominated Florida 33-14 last week and racked up 329 yards rushing in the process.

The Bulldogs are currently a 14.5 point favorite over the Wildcats, per BetMGM.
