Matchup Predictor
Georgia has a 74.5% chance to win, according to ESPN’s matchup predictor via Football Power Index.
Prediction
The difference here will be on defense. Georgia ranks No. 1 in the SEC in most defensive categories. While the Volunteers do have one of the best run defenses in the SEC (3rd), Tennessee is ranked 10th in the conference in total defense and give up over 300 yards per game through the air.
Georgia’s offense, ranked second in total offense in the SEC behind the Volunteers, will do enough to keep Tennessee on its heels in this matchup.
Prediction: Georgia 38-31, The Bulldogs win and move to 9-0.
