Bama Hosts UGA in CBS Prime Time SEC Superpower Showdown

When Kirby Smart was Alabama defensive coordinator, he earned a master’s degree in championship football. Smart learned what it took to build a national champion. Also did Smart learn the NCAA Football betting importance of recruiting. Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban is the GOAT of college football. But like all Saban assistants, Smart has struggled against his mentor with a couple of painful losses. In 2017 Georgia had the national championship game in hand. However, Tua Tagovailoa came off the bench to spark an Alabama overtime win. Following that was a gut-wrenching loss in the 2018 SEC Championship Game.

Georgia Bulldogs at Alabama Crimson Tide SBG Odds Overview

On this occasion, we get two of the top three ranked teams nationally. Alabama is the ultimate offshore betting brand in college football. Georgia has plenty of credibilities as well. But just not at the level of Alabama. Georgia will be an attractive choice for sharps. Power dogs in good form are hard to ignore. Further, Alabama’s poor defensive showing Saturday was a turnoff to all.

Georgia Bulldogs Team Overview

Georgia is 3-0 straight up, 2-1 vs. the line, and 1-2 under the total. Last week Georgia slapped down Tennessee 44-21 as 13-point home chalks. Over a total of 43.5 paid too.

Alabama Crimson Tide Team Overview

Compared to previous Nick Saban Alabama teams this one is distinctly different. Consider Alabama’s 63-48 win at Ole Miss as 24-point chalks. Over a total of 74 was an easy winner. Previously the thought of a Saban program looking like a Big 12 defense was unfathomable. But that’s how it is. Presently the Crimson Tide is 3-0 straight up, 1-2 against the spread, and 3-0 over the total.
