Through 3 Quarters

The Georgia Bulldogs were expected to win this one, and they are just one quarter away from fulfilling that expectation. Sitting on a score of 14-3, they have looked like the better squad out there today, but there's still one more quarter to play.

RB Zamir White has led the way so far for UGA, as he has rushed for one TD and 110 yards on 17 carries. This was the first time White has racked up 100+ rushing yards all year.

The Kentucky Wildcats have been riding high on the performance of RB Christopher Rodriguez Jr., who has picked up 101 yards on the ground on 18 carries.

This is tied with the least points the Wildcats have had yet this year going into the fourth quarter.

No. 5 Georgia @ Kentucky

What to Know

After two games on the road, the Kentucky Wildcats are heading back home. UK and the Georgia Bulldogs will face off in an SEC battle at noon ET Saturday at Kroger Field. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.

The Wildcats came up short against the Missouri Tigers last week, falling 20-10. One thing holding UK back was the mediocre play of QB Terry Wilson, who did not have his best game: he passed for only 35 yards on nine attempts.

Meanwhile, UGA ended up a good deal behind the Alabama Crimson Tide when they played two weeks ago, losing 41-24. The losing side was boosted by RB James Cook, who caught four passes for one TD and 101 yards. Stetson Bennett's 82-yard touchdown toss to Cook in the second quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the night.

UK is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the team has never dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

The losses put UK at 2-3 and the Bulldogs at 3-0. A pair of defensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: The Wildcats enter the game having picked the ball off nine times, good for second in the nation. UGA is not quite as good, but they are no chumps, either: they enter the matchup having picked the ball off six times, good for 14th in the nation.
