Georgia at Vanderbilt picks and predictions
Prediction
Georgia 54, Vanderbilt 17
Moneyline
BetMGM is not even offering a moneyline bet on this game because the Bulldogs are such a heavy favorite. Just avoid and look to the spread and total.
AVOID.
Against the spread
BET GEORGIA -32.5 (-115).
It really does not matter how high this spread is, Georgia will dominate Vanderbilt in this one. In their last two meetings, Georgia has won by a combined 117-0. Vanderbilt has scored a grand total of 6 points against the Bulldogs in their last 12 quarters against each other.
The Bulldogs manhandled a much better Kentucky team last weekend. This Commodore team lost to Kentucky by 17 earlier this season. Georgia looks like it is finally hitting its stride offensively after starting a bit slow, and we know how dominant its defense can be every week.
You also have to consider that Vanderbilt has yet to cover any game this season, even against the lesser opponents it has faced.
Over/Under
BET OVER 55.5 (-110).
Vanderbilt is allowing 40 points per game to its opponents in conference play and Georgia is by far the best team it has faced thus far. According to TeamRankings.com, the Commodores are allowing 445.0 yards per game (115th-fewest in the country). The Bulldogs rank 8th in that category, allowing just 271.8 per game.
Georgia has scored at least 45 points in 4 of its 6 games this season.
