Georgia Bulldogs vs Alabama Crimson Tide Prediction & Picks - NCAA
by Travis Pulver | in NCAA Picks
College football fans are in for a treat on Saturday with a matchup typically reserved for the SEC title game or the College Football Playoff: Georgia vs. Alabama. The game will take place in Tuscaloosa at Bryant-Denny Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
The game already appears as if it will make history. If the spread does not move anymore before kickoff, Alabama's streak of 113 home games as the betting favorite will come to an end. The line opened with Georgia as a 4.5-point favorite but has narrowed to -1 or -1.5 at most sportsbooks. As usual, whenever these two teams play, they are among the best in the country, undefeated, and amid the College Football Playoff hunt. Both offenses are playing well, averaging over 400 yards, but the Crimson Tide averages nearly 50 points a game while the Bulldogs average around 31 ppg.
So, like it often does between these two titans, the game will come down to defense. Teams barely gain 200 yards a game against the Georgia defense and less than a touchdown a game. Alabama's defense is solid but giving up 250 yards a game and 8.7 points.

Our Georgia Bulldogs vs Alabama Crimson Tide Prediction
This game is going to be a dogfight. Both teams are well-coached and stacked with talent on both sides of the ball. Jalen Milroe may be the more athletic of the two quarterbacks, but Carson Beck is more methodical. Milroe is more likely to make the big play that wins the game, but Beck is more likely to engineer the game-winning drive. Either team has the talent to win this game, which makes it hard to pick a winner. However, the last five meetings between these two teams have resulted in final scores of 50+ points. The total for this game is 49.5 at most sportsbooks, but you can still get it at 50.5 at FanDuel.
Our Betting Prediction for Georgia vs. Alabama: UNDER 50.5
