Georgia Favored at Ole Miss as the Under Draws Interest

Ole Miss and Georgia meet in a matchup between two of the 10 best teams in the country. The Bulldogs are 3.5-point road favorites, with the total set at 56.5.

Georgia may also have revenge on its mind after losing to Ole Miss last year. The game carries significance in the race for the top overall spot and the SEC title game.

Dave views Georgia as the better team and likes the Bulldogs on the road. After watching their performance against Florida, he considers Georgia the best team in the country because its defense appears to be back at the level it reached when Kirby Smart won back-to-back titles.

Ole Miss has been a team Dave has supported throughout the season, but the absence of Keywan Lacy is significant. Without that element, he is unsure how much Ole Miss can score against Georgia. His pick is Georgia minus the points.

Another way to evaluate the matchup is through a final-score prediction. One possibility is a 24-21 Ole Miss victory. Another is Georgia scoring a late winning touchdown to prevail 28-24, which would cover the spread. Both outcomes would stay under the total of 56.5.

Georgia and Ole Miss are both viewed as strong teams. While there is a lean toward the Rebels, the preferred play is under 56.5.
