Georgia @ Tennessee

[cloverleaf]

Huge game for Georgia....any win is HUGE for Tennessee right now.

Thoughts men.............

richt as a short road fav, off a loss, typically pretty safe play...i think the vols are demoralized right now..dawgs still have goals, ut, does not

 

[Greenbacks]

I actually think Georgia is the team that is demoralized right now....Got the shit kicked out of them at home to Bama.....High expectations went down the drain.....Only a 3 point chalk in this game.....Vols for me.......Good luck!

How did their expectations go down the drain. That are the SEC champions and in the playoff if they win out...Georgia in a blowout!!!

 

[alkimyst]

Lean Georgia.

I don't know about that. Georgia has played no one except Bama who they got destroyed. Tenn already played OU and Florida and lost against a very tough Arkansas. Wouldn't be surprised if Vols won, but could see Georgia winning by 3-4pts too.

 

[Albatross]

If UGA jumps on them fast Tenn will quit....if they havent already. Butch Jones really needs this one. UGA lets Vols hang around 1H it will probably be close.

Remember big game Richt with the Matthew Stafford Knowshon Moreno preseason no 1 team that got blown out at home by Bama? They went on to lose a few more that year. Right has shown time and time again he can't prepare teams for big games. Chubb and the rest have said in the media they've put the loss behind them but I would be very careful about drinking that kool-aid.

It was a wet field and played into bama's strength. GA wil come out slinging the ball and will cover imho.

Almost every prognosticator i saw in the pre season predicted georgia to win the east , but NONE of them projected georgia to go undefeated , in fact , most predicted georgia to win the east with a 10-2 record. Not sure how their expectations are down the drain. Was there really anybody that thought they were going to go 13-0 ?

Georgia 1st half. Tenn 2nd

because the team, the fans, and the alumni openly said were using last week's game as the measuring stick for their program. After that close loss in SEC title game 3 yr ago they truly believed they had closed the gap on Bama and last week was supposed to be the proof.

yes, objectively speaking, they can run table and win the east and play for the SEC title but I'm not sure I've seen a program so demoralized at a loss to a very good team. I will be very surprised if UGA play well tomorrow

 

[lopsided]

I will be the first to admit that I was on the wrong side last week. I am going to likely make an in-game live bet or halftime bet based on whether Georgia can run on Tennessee and QB Lambert is a big question. I actually lean Tennessee if I had to pick pre-game. The win vs SC does not look nearly as impressive now. BOL to all.

 

[Biz]

Lean to Georgia.

Georgia runs the ball well and Tennessee struggles to stop it. Georgia with the better defense overall, I would take Georgia laying no more than a FG.

Agreed roll tide, it was a measuring stick, or would have been...minus the weather. Anyone who can analyze a teams strengths and weaknesses can easily see that the weather swung that game almost 14 points in our direction. Now richt is a poor coach in my opinion, but I think even he and his staff will be able to get this across to his team and circle the wagons.
