Western Carolina vs Georgia Prediction – College Basketball Picks 12-18-2025

At the beginning of the game on Thursday night, the Georgia Bulldogs had a perfect record of 6–0 at home, which is part of their overall win–loss record of 9–1. In addition to the Clemson Tigers, the Bulldogs have defeated Bellarmine, Maryland Eastern Shore, Morehead State, Georgia Tech, Florida A&M, Xavier, Tennessee Tech, Florida State, and Cincinnati. However, they have suffered a defeat at the hands of the South Carolina Bulldogs. The ability of Georgia Bulldogs guard Jeremiah Wilkinson to lead the Bulldogs backcourt was demonstrated by his 22 points scored in the Bulldogs’ 107–73 victory over Florida State earlier this month. Wilkinson shot 7 of 13 from the field and 4 of 8 from beyond the arc, demonstrating his ability to lead the Bulldogs backcourt.

The Georgia Bulldogs are currently averaging 98.3 points per game, which places them in first place in the nation. They are also shooting 49.1 percent from the field and 30 percent from three-point range with each game. Against their opponents, the Bulldogs are allowing 71.2 points per game to be scored against them.

On average, Jeremiah Wilkinson, a sophomore guard for the Georgia Bulldogs, leads the team in scoring with 17.1 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game while shooting 45 percent from the field throughout each game. During each game, Blue Cain, a freshman guard, contributes 16.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2.7 assists. The Bulldogs benefit from the strong interior presence that center Somto Cyril brings to the team, as he averages 8.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks per game overall.
The Western Carolina Catamounts come into the game on Thursday with a record of 4–6, which includes a record of 1–4 when playing away from their home field. Although the Catamounts have defeated the Stetson Hatters and the University of North Carolina at Asheville, they have also suffered defeats at the hands of Cincinnati, Duke, and the Virginia Tech Hokies. Guard Cord Stansberry racked up 29 points and 5 rebounds in the Western Carolina Catamounts’ victory versus the UNC Asheville Bulldogs, which they won by a score of 80-73. Stansberry missed eight of his 18 shots from the field.

The Western Carolina Catamounts have a game average of 68.6 points, with a shooting percentage of 40.3 percent from the field and 28.9 percent from beyond the arc. As far as the defensive side of basketball is concerned, the Catamounts are allowing opponents to score 84.6 points per game, which places them at a disappointing 332nd place in the nation.

Marcus Kell, a junior forward, is the leader of the Western Carolina Catamounts with an average of 13.4 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 0.8 assists per game. The Catamounts have a presence in the paint thanks to the contributions of senior guard Julien Soumaoro, who averages 13 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game, and center Abdulai Fanta Kabba, who averages 7.2 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game.

The Georgia Bulldogs have an explosive offense, while the Western Carolina Catamounts have a defense that is struggling. This clash showcases both sets of players. Expect the Bulldogs to rely on guard Jeremiah Wilkinson’s ability to shoot from the perimeter and Blue Cain’s ability to pull down rebounds that are strong. In order to maintain a competitive atmosphere during the first half of this game, the Catamounts counter with the presence of Abdulai Fanta Kabba on the interior.

In addition, turnovers and transition play have the potential to determine the outcome of this match. Throughout the course of this season, the Western Carolina Catamounts have shown a lack of consistency when it comes to defending the basketball. Fast break situations, on the other hand, are where the Georgia Bulldogs’ backcourt shines the brightest. Those offensive opportunities should be converted by Wilkinson and Cain, which will allow the Bulldogs to gain separation late in the game. Taking all of this into consideration, I am betting that the Georgia Bulldogs will easily claim victory in this game by pulling away in the second half.

Dominance is at home. This season, the Georgia Bulldogs have posted a perfect record at Stegeman Coliseum, including a perfect score of six wins and zero losses.
It was a good guard play. Through their combined efforts, Jeremiah Wilkinson and Blue Cain score more than 32 points per game.
Presence that is defensive. An average of 2.5 blocks every game is what Somto Cyril does to anchor the paint.
Kabba is making a comeback. When it comes to rebounds per game, Abdulai Fanta Kabba is the team leader with 7.6.
Guard play that is balanced. Additionally, supplemental scoring is provided by Brandon Morgan and Tyler Harris.
An inspiration for the underdog. The Western Carolina Wildcats will attempt to surprise a formidable adversary.
