Texas' biggest SEC test has finally arrived, as the Longhorns travel to Athens, GA, to take on the Georgia Bulldogs between the hedges.
Steve Sarkisian and Co. heads into the game with two straight losses to UGA on their resume', and they're hoping to get some revenge tonight. Texas sits at 7-2 overall (4-1 in SEC), and if they win tonight, it could put them one step closer to being a "lock" for the College Football Playoffs.
Texas vs. Georgia final odds
According to Fanduel.com, the current spread sits at Georgia -4.5. The line has actually moved quite a bit over the past week in both directions, but it looks like the sharps are betting on Texas to cover as the line has moved closer to 0.
Total points: O/U 50.5
Texas vs. Georgia final prediction
This is going to be an incredibly tough game for the Longhorns. Georgia's offense has been getting better and better each week, and QB Gunner Stockton has quietly looked like one of the top signal-callers in the league this season. Texas' defense is going to have to be incredibly disciplined in coverage, and they're going to need to get consistent pressure on Stockton.
Offensively, Arch Manning needs to play like he did against Vanderbilt, and the offensive line needs to play better than they have all season.
Score prediction: Georgia 28, Texas 21
