The Georgia Bulldogs odds to win the 2008 BCS Championship were set at +2200 or 22 to 1 with the payout potential of $2200 for every $100 bet.  Georgia's odds to win the SEC East division were set at +250 or a $250 win for every $100 bet.  The Bulldogs must beat out -110 favored Florida first.  Tennessee and South Carolina each have odds of +300 and +400, respectively.  It's a tough division to be sure.  All odds courtesy of BetOnline.com Here 

What does Athlon have to say:

Georgia went into spring practice worried about its offense and came out worried about its defense. The Bulldogs’ D gave up big plays all spring. The defensive line, without departed ends Quentin Moses and Charles Johnson, has to get pressure on opposing quarterbacks to provide enough support for an athletic but inexperienced secondary.

If the defensive coaches can get things straightened out in the offseason, Georgia has a chance to compete for the SEC title again, because the offense seems to be on track. In fact, if all of the Bulldogs’ playmakers live up to their potential, this could be the most exciting offensive year of Richt’s tenure in Athens.

Under 9 regular season wins, incidentally, is a heavy -190 favorite, meaning you would have to bet $190 just to win $100 on the under.  Over 9 regular season wins pays out $150 for every $100 bet.  Place Those Bets Here
