One of the biggest games on the Week 3 college football slate comes in Knoxville, Tennessee, where the Georgia Bulldogs will take on the Tennessee Volunteers in a pivotal SEC clash on Saturday. This series has been dominated by Georgia in the Kirby Smart era, but will that continue into this season’s meeting?

Georgia -3.5 (-110)
On the surface, the Georgia offense has looked fairly mediocre over the first couple games of the campaign. New quarterback Gunner Stockton is not pushing the ball downfield all that much, and the offensive line is still a question mark given all of the pieces they are rotating at different positions. However, Georgia has been known to keep things vanilla against inferior opponents in nonconference play, and I have a feeling that Kirby Smart and this Bulldogs staff will have a much stronger offensive gameplan in store against an untested Tennessee defense.
On the other side of the ball, it’s abundantly clear that the Bulldogs aren’t anywhere near as dominant as what we’ve seen from them in seasons past. However, this is a unit that still ranks inside the top 20 in most of the meaningful advanced metrics, including success rate allowed and net points per drive (CFB-Graphs). Conversely, the Tennessee offense has historically struggled when facing this Georgia defense in recent years, and this is an entirely new test for former Appalachian State quarterback Joe Aguilar, who has shown a propensity to turn the ball over in his 3 seasons as a starter. Ultimately, Georgia is still the top team in this conference and the dominant side in this series, and I’ll make Tennessee prove it before I change my tune.

Under 50.5 (-110)
These teams approach the game very differently, with Tennessee looking to play at a lightning quick pace, while Georgia is more focused on grinding out the game. It just so happens that I have questions with both of these offenses, as there is major quarterback uncertainty in this game for both teams. I’m also not sold on the ground attack for either group, with Tennessee’s offense struggling on early downs to this point while Georgia is still working out some key offensive line issues. Lastly, both Smart and Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel should be expected to keep things close to their chest early on and avoid taking any big risks on offense, especially given the magnitude of this game. Let’s back the Under while it’s still over a couple of key numbers in this price range.
Zachariah Branch over 41.5 receiving yards (-110)
To close out our Same Game Parlay for this weekend’s matchup, let’s focus on a new receiver to make an immediate impact for Georgia. Zachariah Branch has already shown what he can do through the first couple of weeks of the campaign, having nearly registered 100 yards on 3 catches in the season-opener against Marshall. And while Branch was fairly quiet a week ago against Austin Peay, he should be targeted early and often against a Tennessee secondary that should be the weak link of this defense. Look for Stockton to use Branch as a security blanket on underneath routes, and the threat of the deep ball is always there given Branch’s elite speed. Let’s add some value to our SGP with this pick.
