The Volunteers and Bulldogs enter this NCAAF game with CFP aspirations. Our Tennessee vs Georgia prediction involves the Bulldogs avoiding a third loss and making the SEC even more mixed up at the top.
Tennessee Aiming for Statement Win
Tennessee sits atop the SEC standings this week, as one of the last two 1-loss teams in the conference. They played four straight home games in October, and won them all. The last two games against Kentucky and Mississippi State may have lulled the Volunteers into a sleepwalk. They’ll need to avoid a slow start against Georgia in their first road game since September. With a 1-1 road record, Tennessee needs to earn this victory.
Georgia at Risk of Taking a Third Loss
Georgia slid in the rankings after their 18-point defeat to Ole Miss. The Bulldogs now have two losses, but also have arguably the best win in the country at Texas by 15 points. With a blowout win over Clemson also on their résumé and both losses coming on the road to ranked teams, Georgia remains safely in CFP contention. That being said, a loss at home against Tennessee could put them in jeopardy. This is a key matchup for Georgia.
Tennessee vs Georgia Prediction: Bulldogs Bounce Back at Home
The winner of this game will vastly improve their CFP outlook, while the loser could find themselves on the cusp of elimination. Home field advantage should play a key role in this game. While Tennessee has been playing well and Georgia is coming off a tough loss, the Volunteers are also untested on the road. Look for the Bulldogs to clamp down at home and bounce back against Tennessee, winning this matchup with confidence.
