Georgia vs. Alabama Pick and Prediction
Point Spread pick for Georgia vs. AlabamaĀ
- Alabama +2.5 (4 units)
The first matchup between these two teams went from an offensive explosion in the first half to a defensive struggle in the second half. The Crimson Tide scored all 24 of its points in the first half and hung on for a 24-21 victory. Bamaās ability to protect the ball was key. The team didnāt commit any turnovers, while Georgia lost a fumble. On the season, the Bulldogs were just 66th in turnover margin. The Crimson Tide finished 13th in the nation in turnover margin. Georgia will try to pound the ball against the Bama defense here, while the Tide will come after the Bulldogsā vulnerable pass defense. Georgiaās inability to get to the quarterback will be its undoing on Saturday. Donāt discount the urgency of the Tide here, needing the win to get back to the College Football Playoffs after missing out last season. The Crimson Tide will get the job done and earn their 9th trip to the College Football Playoffs, an all-time high.
Take Alabama +2.5
Over/Under Pick for Georgia vs. AlabamaĀ
- Over 47.5 (4 units)
The over has hit in the SEC Championship game in four of the last five matchups. Despite going under the number in their matchup this season, Georgia and Alabama have gone over the number in all four SEC title matchups. The fast track in Atlanta will play well, particularly for Alabamaās passing attack. The Bulldogs will have to throw the ball to keep up, which will help propel this game over the number.
Take the under.
