I mean I think UGA will win but Alabama has already beaten the #1, #12 and #17 offense. And the #12 defense, presently 3 spots behind UGA's.
The part that's a problem is that UGA has #5 total offense/#6 Scoring offense and the #9 total defense/#6 scoring defense.
While you did face the #12 total defense in A&M, their offense is #52 and you beat them by 6.
You did face the #1 total offense in LSU, their defense is #106 (beat them by 14).
You did face the #12 offense in Ole Miss, their defense is #18 (beat them by 14).
The closest Bama's faced to a team with solid offense and defense might be Texas. #36 defense, #14 offense. They're significantly behind UGA in both categories and you lost by 10 at home.

Yeah, but this is the problem with this whole stats argument. Alabama isn’t the same team as it was when it played Texas. That’s not to say they’ll beat Georgia, but they’ve improved significantly since the Texas game so it’s difficult to look at that game now as a direct indicator of how they would do against Georgia.

The problem is UGA is 1 on 3rd down conversion on offense and defense in the country. Good luck Alabama. We don’t care if you score because the first third down you get you have little chance of making it back to first.
Milroe just isn’t good enough to really make UGA play any type of special defense they wouldn’t want to play. Idk why that’s so hard to accept. Teams that can’t do that often don’t beat UGA. Mizzou could do solely because of Burden for a bit but he got hurt. That means for Alabama to win it will have to come via the way of disrupting the best converting 3rd down offense in the country who is fully healthy currently with arguably the best player in the country a late round 1st at WR the best o line in the country and nfl receivers everywhere else. Good luck
