Georgia Tech vs. Georgia college football betting odds opened at Georgia -9 ½ and had since dropped to -7 ½ everywhere including our friends at betED.com.

The Bulldogs have owned this series over the last 7 games, though covering the current spread 3 times over that period and once in the last four games, although they managed to beat Georgia Tech 31-17 the late time these two teams met.

Georgia is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 against the ACC but 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games played on grass.

The Jackets are coming off a 41-23 whipping of Miami in which they racked up 518 total yards. Most of those came via the triple-option offense.

Fortunately, the Bulldogs had an extra week to prepare for what is the dinosaur of offenses in a spread-offense happy football world. Defending Paul Johnson's scheme requires sound assignment discipline.

"We had a very good base of the entire season besides the Miami game [from which] to put the plan together and make a lot of decisions on," Richt told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "The final piece of the puzzle came with the Miami game."

Another rivalry win would help Georgia lock up a spot in the Capital One Bowl, where the Bulldogs would face Ohio State or Michigan State.

Only one of Georgia Tech's 3 losses this season were by more than the current line of 7 ½.  As we pointed out, Georgia Tech has managed to keep their losses against the Bulldogs within a touchdown in all but one of the last four games. 

Gambling911.com believes Georgia Tech to be a good play on the +7 ½.

They may be defined as “underdogs” or “Cinderella teams”, a term that is usually saved for teams that have little to no chance of winning even a single game during the NCAA Tournament. Teams like Loyola Marymount (1990), George Mason (2006), Davidson (2008), VCU (2011), UConn (2014), and Loyola Chicago (2018) come to mind when conversations turn toward the most surprising tournament runs in recent memory.
