3. Georgia at Missouri
LINE Georgia -26
ATS PICK Georgia
I couldn’t believe the insanity that flowed from normally smart people after Georgia’s 39-22 win over Kent State.
All of a sudden, Georgia was vulnerable.
All of a sudden, we have to reassess what we think of this team and its start to the season.
All of a sudden, Georgia doesn’t appear to be the No. 1 team in college football, it has issues that need fixing, and on, and on, and on.
At no time were the Bulldogs in any real danger against the Golden Flashes.
It was a true unfocused letdown game that still turned into a 17-point win, and yet everyone suddenly forgot about the total annihilation of a strong Oregon team and the beatdown of South Carolina on the road to kick off the SEC slate.
But this is also about Missouri.
The Tigers played two decent teams so far. They got run out of Manhattan by Adrian Martinez and Kansas State in a 40-12 loss, and they lost in overtime against a punchless Auburn team 17-14.
Even if RB Nathaniel Peat had hung on to the ball across the goal line for the win, whatever.
The passing game didn’t really work against K-State or Auburn, and now it’s going to find itself and start winging it around against this team?
Go with this. Do you think Georgia will come close to hitting its average of 42 points or not? If so, then what are we doing here?
