My sense is that this will be a heavily contested game with a lot of tension. Those types of games rarely get out of control. I don't think Arkansas can win this game, but i also don't think that Georgia will be able to distance themselves from that Arkansas defense.
I mentioned before this is a game Ark needs to lose
Sounds weird but they are not going into Georgia and Bama and taking both along with that semi-road victory over AM
Get the loss out of the way and take out Bama to make the SEC championship game
But that has nothing to do with spread
I would lean heavily with Ark
Defense and running look solid
QB seems to be able to do enough
As far as I know the injury shouldn't be a problem

Alabama and Georgia are easily the top 1 and 2, and then there are a host of teams clustered way behind them. Immediate reaction is to jump on all the points, but maybe Georgia hasn't even showed everything with their blowout wins over weaker teams. Clemson game was week one, and their defense is very good. If they played now, would Georgia beat them by a whole lot more? Are the books fishing for Arkansas money and will they be a big public dog?
Arkansas already appears to be a heavily bet underdog in Athens this weekend…which always concerns me when backing the dog.
You also have to consider the relationship/history between Smart and Pittman. I think Arkansas is going to really struggle to score and Georgia will not be intimidated by the Arkansas D, although they have played very well to start the year (at home and in Dallas). This will be their first true road game this season.
Personally, I’d be very hesitant playing against Georgia at the moment…with the exception of a tough opener against Clemson, they are on a mission to blow the doors off of everyone they play.
I think there are better games on the board, but if I had to play it I’d side with Georgia in a route. 44-13 ish.
GL whichever way you go.

Arkansas has a shot here, definitely. I do t think Arkansas wins, but 20 points is just a lot. I don’t see UGa being able to air it out, I think they will be able to run for 3-5 yards at will. Arkansas will be able to run the edges IF qb is healthy (questionable right now). Arkansas can take the top off the D as well. Also Arkansas has started slow in most games this far, just FYI
Arkansas will not run the ball on UGA. Explosives have to come thru the air vs UGA. The Hogs have had some success with those deep shots but that is because teams are having to sell out to stop the run. UGA will not have to do that.
Should be an interesting measuring stick for both teams....I have a feeling that the Hogs are in deep trouble here.
Under 14.5 TT Arkansas....crossing fingers for 17 but it is not happening.

I don't think we have seen Georgia at full strength for 4 quarters and the line reflects that. I was thinking it would be 14 1/2 and 10 point tease it down to anything under 7.
Georgia would lose to the worst NFL team by 30+
I would take a look at Under 48
