We’ve made it! The biggest game of the year, No. 3 Georgia at No. 2 Alabama.

Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett is set to make his first road start in one of the toughest places to play in the country, Tuscaloosa.

Covid-19 stadium capacity guidelines will keep the noise from getting as loud as usual, but facing a team as talented as Alabama on the road is always a daunting task.

Good thing the Bulldogs have the best defense in the country to back up the young signal-caller.

We breakdown everything you need to know for the game in this week’s episode of the UGA Football Live podcast, featuring special guest Keith Marshall. Listen here:

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.
