In this Western Kentucky vs Georgia Prediction, Georgia is coming as -40.5 home favorites. Both teams are coming off completely opposite outcomes in their opening games of the season, as Georgia won by 60 points at home and will be playing their second straight game at home to start the season, while Western Kentucky lost by 35 on the road. Georgia is projected as a top-5 team in the country this season and they showed last week why, so I expect them to dominate an inferior Western Kentucky squad at home and cover the big number.
