Keys to Victory For Georgia
Going into the season, the defending champions were picked to stay on top by many experts. Early into the season, it looked like the Bulldogs were going to keep their top spot in the SEC and college football.
That was until they got rocked by Alabama, and the cracks started showing in the bulldog’s armor. Last week wasn’t any better after QB Carson Beck had his worst game of the year against Florida.
Beck threw a career-worst three interceptions, and the Bulldogs had to pull off a comeback to win.
Ole Miss is currently playing at their best this year and has one of the toughest defenses in college football. If Georgia goes into Ole Miss and play like they did in Florida, a win will be unlikely.
They have to be in championship form or Ole Miss will kill their dreams of repeating as champions.
Keys to Victory For Ole Miss
The expectations for the Ole Miss Rebels were high going into the season. Unfortunately, had some hiccups and dropped two games to Kentucky and LSU.
Lucky for the Rebels, they’ve been able to bounce back and are currently ranked #16 and 4th in conference. Lane Kiffin has got his defense playing great and the Rebels are a tough out at home.
They remember the beating the Bulldogs gave them last year and are looking to return the favor at home.
If the Ole Miss defense can rattle Carson Beck early, they can take this game and ruin Georgia’s dream of repeating. This would be the biggest win of the year for Ole Miss and put them in contention for the SEC championship.
Who Wins?
Anything can happen in the SEC, and everything is on the line for both Georgia and Ole Miss. Nobody would be shocked to see Ole Miss pull off the upset win.
If Carson Beck has another bad game, it may cost the Bulldogs their season. If this upset goes down, another SEC team could easily win the conference title this year.
The +115 money line on the Rebels is enticing, as is the over-on 54-point total.
We’re taking Ole Miss in an upset win at home.
