Game Thread: #7 Georgia @ Tennessee 3:30 PM EST, CBS

[Chewbaccer]

Tennessee really hasn't looked good the last two weeks. They left all kinds of points on the table in their hail mary loss to Florida, and then they just barely scraped by UMass at home last week, but I don't really expect that to matter much today. These teams always play each other close.

Georgia is coming off an impressive win over Mississippi State.

I think it'll be a fairly close game, but in the end, I think Georgia's front seven will be the difference in the game.

I'll take Georgia 27-20

I think the Vols pull off the upset, 20-17!

Mang ... I really wanna put a butt-ton of v on the Dawgs with the -7.5, but this game skeers me with how close they've played each other the past few years. Nothing but 3pt & 7pt wins.

I didn't touch this game. I'll never bet against Georgia, and I only bet for them when I think it's a rational bet. My bookie site has Georgia as a 9.5 point favorite on the road. Not touching that one.

But the last two times Georgia has played in Knoxville, we've suffered some major injuries.

2013:

Keith Marshall
Justin Scott-Wesley
Michael Bennett(our white receiver with good hands at the time)

2015:

Nick Chubb

It happens again, I say we go head hunting.

And also, this is the first day game Georgia will play this year. Which is nice, starting the season with 4 straight night games was a bit of a strain. Don't have to pace myself as much now with the 3:30 kick.

Very possible. This will be Jake Fromm's first game in front of a hostile crowd(His first start @ ND was far from hostile with all the UGA fans there). From everything I've seen with the kid, that shouldn't effect him, but you never can tell until they step on the field
