Here’s how Georgia could cover the big spread on Saturday…
No. 1 Georgia (11-0) returns home to Athens for the latest edition of “Clean Old Fashioned Hate” versus in-state rival Georgia Tech on Saturday.
UGA is coming off a tough 16-6 win at Kentucky to finish an undefeated SEC season for the second year in a row.
The Yellow Jackets are coming off an upset win over No. 13 North Carolina and have a bowl bid at stake in Week 13.
The game is set to kick off at noon ET on ESPN. Georgia is a 35.5 point favorite, per BetMGM. The over/under is set at 49.
UGA Football great Thomas Davis gave a shout out to the Georgia Bulldogs after beating Georgia tech again
On Saturday, Georgia beat rival Georgia Tech 52-7 for the 16th time in the last 19 meetings.
The Dawgs move to 11-1 on the season and will have a tough matchup with LSU for the SEC Championship, which for Georgia will be a College Football Playoff play-in game.
One former Bulldog who was proud to see his alma mater take home the Governor’s Cup once again is Thomas Davis, who is in his 15th NFL season and now with the Los Angeles Chargers.
Davis was a monster at Georgia, and though he made his NFL earnings as a linebacker for the Carolina Panthers, he actually played safety in Athens before becoming a first round pick. One of the hardest hitters in school history, Davis was a two-time All-SEC selection, making the second team in 2003 and the first team in 2004. Also, if that’s not enough, the dude has come back from three torn ACLs in the same knee. And you know who he credits his perseverance to? UGA.
Georgia freshman WR George Pickens will be suspended for the first half of next week’s SEC Championship Game against LSU in Atlanta.
Following a less-than-civil confrontation in today’s beating of the Bees, Georgia freshman wide receiver George Pickens will be suspended for the first half of next week’s SEC Championship Game against Louisiana State in Atlanta.
Kirby Smart confirmed the suspension in his post-game press conference following a 45-point win at Georgia Tech.
Jim Coley’s offense will already be without the injured Lawrence Cager, who leads the team with 476 receiving yards in 2019.
Pickens is only 19 yards behind with one fewer reception (32) and one more touchdown (5) than Cager.
The freshman out of Hoover, Alabama was previously suspended for the first half of today’s game against Georgia Tech for a “team matter” upon which Kirby Smart would not elaborate.
Missing two of the biggest deep threats on the roster, the Bulldogs offense will need to get creative in the first half of the looming conference championship.
Junior defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt will not suit up for the Bulldogs in this year’s edition of Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate.
As per Seth Emerson of The Athletic, junior defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt will not suit up for the Bulldogs in this year’s edition of Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate.
Wyatt, who hasn’t yet missed a game in 2019, has recorded 22 tackles and has been credited with 19 quarterback pressures on the year. In addition, he recovered a fumble in the first game of the season at Vanderbilt.
Though Georgia Tech hasn’t had much success rushing the ball under Geoff Collins, Wyatt’s ability to plug gaps and pressure signal callers is a large void that will need to be filled with heavy rotational play.
If there’s one goal Georgia Tech has left for the 2019 regular season, it is to disrupt the 2019 postseason of their most hated rivals.
The stage is set for the SEC Championship Game. Regardless if either team loses in the final week of the regular season, Eastern Division champion Georgia will face Western Division champion Louisiana State on December 7th at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
For undefeated LSU, there is a slight possibility that a single loss in a conference championship game could keep them in the final spot of the College Football Playoff given their tiebreaker with Alabama, which sits at No. 5 in the playoff picture.
The margin of error is much smaller for Kirby Smart’s Georgia Bulldogs, who suffered their lone loss in overtime against a South Carolina squad currently posting a record of four wins and seven losses.
A week before the Dawgs play the Tigers in Altanta, they’ll make a trip to Bobby Dodd Stadium, under two miles away from their next destination.
Georgia Tech hosts Georgia sporting three wins and eight losses. In their first season removed from Paul Johnson’s option-based flexbone offense, the Yellow Jackets have struggled to effectively utilize tight ends and single set backs under new head coach Geoff Collins.
Though the two teams have shared no common opponents this season, Georgia is currently favored at one of the highest margins of victory in the history of Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate.
Georgia Tech isn’t bowl eligible while Georgia needs to win out to appear in the College Football Playoff. If there’s one goal the Yellow Jackets have left for the 2019 regular season, it is to disrupt the 2019 postseason of their most hated rivals.
The Bulldogs cannot afford to look forward to LSU if they wish to keep their playoff hopes alive for one more week.
