‘College GameDay’ predicts winner of Georgia vs. Tennessee

The College GameDay crew likes Georgia’s chances against Tennessee. Is that a bad omen for the Bulldogs?

ESPN’s “College GameDay” is in Athens, Georgia, for the Georgia Bulldogs versus Tennessee Volunteers game. Georgia is hosting Tennessee in Week 12 in a battle of two College Football Playoff hopefuls.

Who did the GameDay crew predict to win the Georgia-Tennessee game?

“Uga, I think you’re beautiful,” said Lee Corso, who put on Georgia head gear and picked Georgia to win. “Give me them Dawgs!”

Former NFL punter and college football expert Pat McAfee called the Dawgs and picked Georgia to win. “The Georgia Bulldogs win a must-win and put themselves back in the College Football Playoff!” said McAfee.

Former Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban predicts that Georgia will beat Tennessee. Former Michigan Wolverines legend Desmond Howard also predicts that Georgia will win against Tennessee.

GameDay guest picker Cody Rhoades, who is a WWE champion wrestler, picked Georgia to win. All five members of the GameDay crew predicted Georgia to beat Tennessee.

Kirk Herbstreit did not make a prediction because he is commentating the Georgia-Tennessee game.

Social media reacts: Georgia cruises in win at Tennessee

Georgia football fans, media are hyped after the Bulldogs crushed Tennessee on the road!

The No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs continue to look like College Football Playoff contenders. The Bulldogs picked up a 38-10 road win at No. 18 Tennessee.

The Volunteers opened the game with a 75-yard touchdown run, but that was the only highlight of the day for Tennessee fans.

Georgia quarterback Carson Beck carved up the Tennessee pass defense like a pumpkin before Halloween. Beck distributed the ball to a variety of receivers and finished completing 24 of 30 passes for 298 passing yards and three touchdowns. The Georgia offensive line did an excellent job in pass protection.

Georgia wide receiver and running back Dillon Bell threw a touchdown pass and caught a touchdown in his best game of the season.

Georgia’s defense played great after the opening snap. Defensive back Tykee Smith recorded 10 total tackles. Georgia held the Volunteers to only 202 total yards after the first play of the game.

Georgia Bulldog fans were fired up after Georgia’s 14th straight road win:

No. 1 Georgia football (10-0, 7-0 SEC) will visit No. 18 Tennessee (7-3, 3-3 SEC) this week for the Bulldogs’ last SEC matchup of the regular season.

The Volunteers are coming off a 36-7 drubbing by No. 9 Missouri a week ago, while Georgia is riding high after a top-10 win over Ole Miss, 52-17.

This year’s matchup doesn’t hold the same weight as it did a year ago. In 2022, Tennessee entered the game as the No. 1 team in the College Football Playoff Rankings with a national championship on its mind.

The Bulldogs, then No. 3, dominated the Volunteers, 27-13, and never looked back on their way to a second consecutive title.

The SEC East is already clinched by Georgia, but the Vols have an opportunity to leave a stain on the Bulldogs’ season with a home win.

Here’s everything you need to know before kickoff:

Georgia’s five most important players against Tennessee

Who are Georgia’s five most important players for the Tennessee game?

The Georgia Bulldogs host the Tennessee Volunteers in one of the top college football games in recent memory. Both SEC East teams are undefeated and in the mix to make the College Football Playoff.

Who are Georgia’s five most important players for the Tennessee game? The Bulldogs need a lot of players to step up to beat Hendon Hooker and the Tennessee Volunteers.

Georgia dominates Tennessee, moves to 10-0

The Georgia Bulldogs dominated the Tennessee Volunteers in a 41-17 road victory

The Georgia Bulldogs dominated the Tennessee Volunteers in a 41-17 victory at Rocky Top. Tennessee got off to a fast 7-0 start, but ultimately, Georgia overcame Tennessee’s strong first quarter and secured a comfortable 24-10 lead at halftime.

Quarterback Stetson Bennett was successful throwing the football more than usual (Bennett finished with a season-high 29 passing attempts) for UGA. Running back James Cook had his best game of the season. Cook scored three total touchdowns and accumulated 147 total yards. Cook may be Georgia’s top running back.

Wide receiver Adonai Mitchell looked impressive. He finished with five receptions for 65 yards.

Georgia’s offensive line played well. Warren Ericson started at right guard, but Xavier Truss replaced early in the game. Ericson continued to play on special teams. Broderick Jones held up well on the edge. Veteran Jamaree Salyer is working his way back from an injury.

Defensively, Dan Lanning adjusted following a slow start. Georgia’s corners looked shaky in coverage at times. Kelee Ringo was beat deep a few times. Derion Kendrick and company allowed 200 receiving yards to Tennessee receiver Cedric Tillman.

Kendrick did record an interception. Linebacker Channing Tindall finished with three sacks. Georgia held the Vols to just 55 rushing yards.

Georgia’s red zone defense looked solid. The Dawgs held up well in the second half before allowing another garbage time touchdown.

Kirby Smart and Georgia are 10-0. UGA finishes 8-0 in SEC play. Georgia faces Charleston Southern and Georgia Tech in their two remaining regular season games.

The defensive line battled a stomach bug entering the game. Robert Beal, Jordan Davis, Devonte Wyatt, and Nolan Smith all went down with injuries throughout the game. Georgia’s depth at edge rusher is a concern, so Nolan Smith’s status is something to watch moving forward.

Twitter reacts: Georgia weathers Tennessee storm, pulls away for 41-17 win

Twitter is buzzing after another dominant SEC win from Georgia

No. 1 Georgia has moved to 10-0 with a dominant win on the road over rival Tennessee.

It wasn’t easy. The Vols scored a touchdown on their first possession, which marked the first touchdown allowed in the first quarter by Georgia this season, while the 7-point deficit was the largest UGA had faced this year.

Georgia responded with a score of their own but stalled for the rest of the first period.

Tennessee held a 10-7 lead at the start of the 2nd quarter before UGA stormed back with 17 unanswered points to take a 24-10 lead into the half.

Georgia kept that momentum throughout the second half. Tennessee’s offense couldn’t get anything going until a garbage-time touchdown with just a few minutes left in the fourth quarter.

That gave us a 41-17 final.

Senior running back James Cook was the player of the game by far. Cook totaled 147 yards from scrimmage with three total touchdowns (2 rushing, 1 receiving).

Here’s how UGA Twitter reacted to the Dawgs win:
