Austin/Longhorn sports media make their picks for Georgia vs Utrans Sorry Georgia

You can’t argue with their logic clearly games played in 2016 will affect the outcome of tomorrow’s game

Either way, I thought it would be funny to document this for tomorrow

Georgia losses at Home under Kirby Smart '2016 - #25 vs. #11 Tennessee (L 34-31) '2016 - Unranked vs. Vanderbilt (L17-16) '2016 - Unranked vs. Georgia Tech (L 28-27) '2019 - #3 vs. South Carolina (L 20-17) '2025 - #5 vs. 17. Alabama (L 24-21) Georgia is 33-2 since 2017, and 34-5 since 2016 at Sanford Stadium under Kirby Smart against Power 4 opponents. They are 14-2 vs ranked opponents. The Bulldogs are 8-0 vs top 10 The average margin of victory against the Top 10 teams... 6 (Auburn - Sean White), 6 (Notre Dame - Ian Book), 21 (Auburn - Bo Nix), 37 (Arkansas - KJ Jefferson), 14 (Tennessee - Hendon Hooker), 35 (Ole Miss - Jaxson Dart), 14 (Tennessee - Nico Iamaleava), 8 (Ole Miss - Trinidad Chambliss) With all that being said... I think Texas having the same Offensive Line for the last three weeks for Tre Wisner and CJ Baxter to run behind.. is a BIG deal! Steve Sarkisian is 12-1 in November over the last 3 seasons, with 5 ranked wins.

Texas 27 - Georgia 22

Alex Dunlap (6-3)
This is a Texas team that hasn't earned a whole lot of trust, but a program that seems to have learned how to navigate tough November schedules after putting itself in early holes. UGA is hard to kill, but really has only played 2 SEC games that weren't relative squeakers. If Texas is peaking at the right time, my prediction will be right. If the offense vs. Vanderbilt was a mirage, it will be completely idiotic.

Texas 26 Georgia 23 (OT)

Travis Galey (6-3)
I have really struggled with which side of the fence I'm going to fall on with this prediction. On the one hand, I like how Georgia's lack of sacks could mean Arch has time to get comfortable and find open receivers. I also really like the move to more three wide out sets. I think Texas has a real opportunity to move the ball through the air and Georgia's defense is not the immovable force we've come to expect. But on the other hand, while Texas has a good run defense, they haven't faced any team that runs the ball as well as UGA. Their line can open holes and Nate Frazier is a tough runner. I have also underrated Gunnar Stockton. He's a tough gamer who can also throw the ball. Given the fact that this game is in Athens … I'm going with the Bulldogs but Texas covers the spread.

Georgia 31 - Texas 27

Geoff Ketchum (7-2)
My head tells me this isn't the place for the Longhorns to learn how to play well on the road this season. Nothing about what's needed to win in Athens has been on display in a single road performance all season. But, then my heart tells me... enchiladas. It's Sarkvember. In Arch and Colin, I trust. And El Patio enchiladas in Houston. Texas 27 - Georgia 26


Anwar Richardson (5-4)
I don't have a logical reason to pick Texas. Steve Sarkisian is 16 at Texas against Top-5 opponents. Kirby Smart beat him twice last season. Texas is 22 on the road this year and struggled in wins over Kentucky and Mississippi State. The Longhorns looked sharp against Vanderbilt, but that doesn't automatically translate to winning in Athens.

Texas 24 - Georgia 20


Jason Suchomel (5-4)
My head tells me to go with Georgia, at home. My matchups tell me to go with Georgia. But @Ketchum and his damn enchiladas has me going against the grain. Texas is the more desperate team, the offensive line seems to have found something in the Vandy game, and the defense is healthy. Give me the Longhorns.

Texas 24 Georgia 23
