Prediction
Georgia is the much stronger school across the board in this matchup. The hosts have a top-tier offense, but their defense is one of the best in the whole nation, which has led them to a 4-1 mark. Mississippi State has had a rough season, but UGA has only covered one of their five games, and that came all the way back in their first game of the year versus Clemson. We’re targeting an alternate spread cover for Mississippi State here as the favorites have really struggled versus the spread.
