Cincinnati at Georgia Pick
Point Spread Pick for Cincinnati vs. Georgia
- Georgia -9 (4 units)
The Bearcats have not played well against power teams thus far, 0-2 on the season. They are far less prolific offensively than the Bulldogs as well. The Bearcats can usually make up for their poor shooting with one of the country’s top rebounding teams. Unfortunately, they face a Bulldogs team that leads the country in rebounding. Georgia will also take advantage of the sloppy play of the Bearcats. Cincinnati is just 304th in the country in turnovers per game. Expect the Bulldogs to jump to 9-1 on Saturday with a comfortable win over the Bearcats.
Take the Bulldogs minus the points.
Over/Under Pick for Cincinnati at Georgia
- Over 160 (4 units)
The Bulldogs are the top-scoring team in the country. They are coming in well-rested and off a 57 percent shooting performance against Florida State. They should get plenty of chances for easy baskets in this game with the Bearcats’ tendency to turn the ball over. Georgia already plays at the 3rd-fastest pace in the country. The Bearcats are above-average in pace of play, ranked 129th in the nation. The pace will be fast, and the points will come fast on Saturday in Atlanta.
Take the over.
