Captains: LT Jamaree Salyer, LB Monty Rice, LB Azeez Ojulari

Matchup predictor: Georgia has a 39.6% chance to win, according to ESPN’s Football Power Index.

Series history: Currently, Alabama leads the all-time series 40-25-4, with the Bulldogs last win coming in 2007.

Prediction: This game is a matchup between one of the most prolific offenses in the nation versus the best defense. Bama has weapons sure, but what can Mac Jones do when he has three Bulldog rushers in his face every dropback?

I’m taking the Bulldogs 32-28.

Georgia senior LB Monte Rice a game-time decision for Alabama game

Georgia’s leading tackler Monte Rice is game-time decision for Alabama game. Details her

According to Dawg Nation, Senior linebacker Monte Rice is listed as a game-time decision for Georgia’s matchup with Alabama Saturday night.

Rice is the Bulldogs’ leading tackler and is coming off one of the best performances of his career last week versus Tennessee.

The Huntsville, Alabama native racked up eight tackles, one sack, a forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and a touchdown against the Volunteers in Georgia’s 44-21 win. 

If Rice isn’t able to go, look for junior linebackers Quay Walker and Channing Tyndall to see more of the field.

Both guys are plenty capable of picking up the slack and Tyndall recorded two sacks last week against Tennessee in a small amount of snaps, so the Bulldogs will be fine in the middle whether Rice can go or not.
