Tennessee (-3) over Georgia: I used Tennessee twice already in this column, and the Volunteers won both times. They have another favorable matchup this week. The Vols started slowly, and things looked bleak last week against Florida, but they dominated the second half and will carry that momentum into this week’s meeting against the Bulldogs. Georgia is struggling on offense, and Tennessee is holding opponents to 120 yards per game below their season average. The Vols will win by more than a field goal.

Georgia is awful! Chubb isn't even close to a 100% and their freshman QB is going against a Bob Shoop defense. I like our chances.

No freaking way Vols hold 120 yards below our season average. That'd be like -18 yards. Unpossible.

The line is at -3 now? I guess a lot of people are picking Georgia.

No way in hell. If I still dabbled in such things I'd bet the house on UT....and I have UGA season tickets.

When you saw cover, you thought they meant a sugary glaze like you see on Krispy Kreme donuts.

You know what happens when you eat too many donuts Phil... you get a sugar high, then you crash. Same thing is going to happen with this overrated team - crash.

When it does, it's going to hurt and your fat arse is going to waddle down the local Krispy Kreme where you'll gorge yourself on sugar bombs until you pass out.

You should beat Georgia, but I don't think anyone on the rant will be surprised if you don't.

That line is way too low. The betting public is still evaluating Georgia like our teams of the last 15 years; have a bad game but still rebound and look competitive for the rest of the season. I'm guessing bettors won't make the same mistake again after this weekend.

If UGA still had their coach, I would pick UGA. But, they have a coordinator as a head coach. In way over his head.
