Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs. Georgia Bulldogs Best Pick
Kenny McIntosh has established himself as one of the primary ball carriers for the Georgia Bulldogs. The Bulldogs run a running back-by-committee approach, but McIntosh leads the team in rushing this season.
Don't expect the Georgia Bulldogs to reach deep into their bag of tricks in this one. Georgia wants to win decisively and remain healthy for the challenge that awaits them next week, the LSU Tigers.
The Georgia Bulldogs' offensive line dominates this game up front, and the Bulldogs control the clock with their rushing attack. Take the Over on rushing yards for the Bulldogs' lead back.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs. Georgia Bulldogs Final Prediction
How can an under. 500 Georgia Tech team, which has been blown out several times, keep the game remotely close? If we take recency bias into the equation, we look back at last week's upset victory over the North Carolina Tar Heels as evidence that anything is possible.
The Georgia Bulldogs have a date next week with a tough LSU Tigers team to settle the SEC Championship. Even though this is a rivalry game, it would be understandable and human nature to suggest that the Georgia Bulldogs might be looking past the Georgia Yellow Jackets in this spot.
Georgia is vastly superior in every aspect, but Georgia Tech pulls out all the stops against the defending National Champions. Georgia wins this game easily, don't get me wrong, but a five TD spread is a bridge too far for this rivalry week's match-up. Take the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets to cover.
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets +36 (-110)
