The number five-ranked Georgia Bulldogs will face the Auburn Tigers on Saturday. This game is going to be held at Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia, and should kick off at 3:30 PM ET.
Last week, the Georgia Bulldogs faced the Alabama Crimson Tide in what was their biggest test of the season so far. After going 28 points down after the first quarter, Kirby Smart’s team clawed their way back into the game and, at one point, were leading.
However, this did not last long, as Bama wide receiver Ryan Williams scored a touchdown to give the Bulldogs their first loss of the season.
The Auburn Tigers come into the game with a 2-3 record. Last week, they faced the Oklahoma Sooners in what was an important game for both programs. It looked like the Tigers were going to hold on for victory, but a late comeback from the Sooners turned that W into a 27-21 loss.
Georgia vs Auburn Score prediction
Georgia Bulldogs are one of the strongest teams in college football. Led by quarterback Carson Beck, the Bulldogs have been able to show that they can defeat tough opponents, as seen by their dominant victory over the Clemson Tigers on opening day.
However, when they started conference play, the Bulldogs seemed to lose some of their strength. They defeated the Kentucky Wildcats (who would go on to defeat the Ole Miss Rebels a week later) by just one point before losing in the Alabama game.
This tells us that if a team can shut down the likes of Beck and Trevor Etienne, they stand a real chance of winning.
The Auburn Tigers offense has struggled this season. Hugh Freeze cannot seem to stick to a quarterback but appears to have now settled on Payton Thorne to lead this team, thanks to the over 300-yard game against Oklahoma.
However, Thorne and the Tigers have been known for making many mistakes this season, and this has been a key reason why they have been losing games. If they are to do this again vs. Georgia, expect them to lose.
College Football Network has made a scoreline prediction for the game. They predict that Georgia will defeat Auburn 38-7.
Georgia vs Auburn Point spread
According to Fanduel, the betting line for this game is -24 points in favor of Georgia, while the overall points line is 52.
