Tennessee at Georgia picks and predictions
Prediction
Georgia 21, Tennessee 17
Moneyline
PASS.
I like Georgia to pick up the win here as I simply do not trust Tennessee’s passing offense and as Georgia is simply the more poised team for this primetime matchup. Tennessee’s QB Nico Iamaleava was in concussion protocol all week, but he has been cleared to play. This news only shifted the lines to a small degree.
The Bulldogs are not worth the risk of betting on as -350 favorites, so bet on the spread and/or total instead.
Against the spread
LEAN TENNESSEE +8.5 (-110).
Tennessee is the better team ATS this season, being 5-4 on the year while the Bulldogs are an abysmal 2-7 ATS this year.
Tennessee’s dominant rushing attack and Georgia’s tendency to turn the ball over, especially in the passing game, will help Tennessee keep this game competitive.
This is a lean because Tennessee is only 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 46.5 (-115).
The Under has hit in 5 of Tennessee’s last 6 games and is 4-1 in Tennessee’s last 5 wins. For Georgia, the Under is 2-1 in its last 3 games and 6-3 on the season.
Tennessee is also a team that is dominant in the run game, which will help bleed the clock and keep this game Under.
