Orlando Magic visit Pacers Jan 24 in Basketball Sports Betting

Arriving off of a formidable – but losing – playoff effort last year against the Chicago Bulls, the Pacers came roaring back to begin the 2011-2012 year. The squad is going through its greatest early record in the earlier eight years, but are still troubled against the more adept teams in the league. While they are 11-4 so far, merely four of those wins are against teams with records above .500.

With the Magic arriving to visit on Tuesday, January 24, the Indiana Pacers will have a better challenge on their hands, and they’re going to need the home court edge tonight. Indiana is undefeated at home this year and will look to extend their record to 6-0. If they are able to pull out a victory, it will likely be the first time the squad has opened up a year with 6 consecutive home wins since the 2002-2003 year.

However the Orlando Magic are a fearsome adversary who are 11-5 on the year so far. And the recent past is all on Orlando’s side. The Orlando Magic have beat the Indiana Pacers in Indiana in each of the earlier 3 bouts between the 2. In reality, Orlando has won these matches on the road in Indianapolis by about 13 points. The most recent contest between the 2 was January 26, 2011.

The Indiana Pacers will additionally need to find a way to cope with Orlando Magic star Dwight Howard. Howard has led the squad to an 11-3 record over Indiana, and he has put up double-doubles in each one of these matches. Despite the challenges ahead for the Indiana Pacers, the sportsbook posts them as the -3 faves to defeat the Orlando Magic. The total is established at 182.5.

Both teams come into this match with a 7-3 record over their last 10 matches. The Indiana Pacers have a 5-0 home record so far, whilst the Orlando Magic are 5-3 on the road. Look for Orlando to make a unexpectedly formidable showing after their catastrophic 87-56 loss to the Celts a few days ago.

College Basketball Wildcats versus Georgia Bulldogs in Jan 24 Sports Wagering

Number one rated Kentucky against the NCAA tournament hopefuls Georgia? Appears like a recipe for a blowout, especially as Kentucky barely regained that coveted No. 1 spot on the rankings for the 1st time in the earlier two months. Whereas the Wildcats are at the top of the rankings and relishing an 11 game win streak, the Georgia Bulldogs can best be termed sporadic so far in the season.

Super Bowl odds

The Kentucky Wildcats are 19-1 and 5-0 in the SEC. They’re coming off of a particularly ugly game at home versus Alabama, where they garnered their previous 15 points at the foul line. Luckily, the squad is pretty great from the free-throw line, where they made 23-of-29 to hold onto the win, 77-71. That victory, combined with Syracuse dropping their 1st game of the season, put Kentucky back at the top. Their recent 11 game win streak is additionally their best since going 19-0 during the 2009-2010 season.

Super Bowl betting

Georgia is going to have its hands full struggling with the Wildcats on Tuesday, January 24. The Georgia Bulldogs garnered an invite to the NCAA tournament for the 1st time in the last 3 years in 2011, but two of their main players advanced to the NBA. Since losing them, Georgia has lost a lot of their offensive touch, scoring simply 61.9 ppg with a pathetic 39.9 percent field-goal percentage. The Georgia Bulldogs are now 10-9 total and 1-4 in the SEC.

With the Wildcats averaging 79.5 ppg, and the Georgia Bulldogs at 61.9, it is no wonder the sportsbook is favoring the Wildcats by 12 points. It might be a bargain taking the Cats, as the game may end up pretty effortlessly as a 15- or 20-point blowout. The total is set at 129, but and I would anticipate this game to go under the total. If Kentucky performs even somewhat bit of defense, the Bulldogs’ offense could be effectively shut down all evening.
