\"The<\/a>
The Tennessee Volunteers have covered the number in six of their last eight games against the Georgia Bulldogs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Tennessee will look to bounce back from its first loss of the season, as it suffered a 34-10 setback to the Oklahoma Sooners as 21-point road underdogs on Sept. 13, while going UNDER the betting total for the third time in as many opportunities.\u00a0 The Volunteers have played a lot of first-year players this season, which is important to consider when making your Week 5 college football predictions, including 16 true freshmen against the Sooners.\u00a0 Tennessee has covered six of the last eight meetings in this series.<\/p>\n

The Volunteers will need a huge game from star linebacker A.J. Johnson, who recorded his 19th career double-digit tackle game last time out, which can\u2019t be ignored when looking over the college football odds page.\u00a0 Tennessee will be looking to gain revenge from a 34-31 overtime loss to Georgia as 13.5-point home underdogs in last year\u2019s meeting, as it was outgained by just 30 yards in that affair.<\/p>\n

Georgia will look to win its third game in as many tries at Sanford Stadium in 2014, as it registered a 66-0 victory over the Troy Trojans as 41-point favorites last Saturday, while going OVER the betting total for the third consecutive affair.\u00a0 The Bulldogs removed starting quarterback Hutson Mason quickly from the matchup, as he finished 8-for-11 passing for 97 yards and two touchdowns.\u00a0 The program tallied 367 rushing yard on 39 attempts\u2014the most such yards in the Mark Richt era.\u00a0 Georgia is 1-4 ATS in its last five home games in this series.<\/p>\n

The Bulldogs own a plus-four turnover margin on the season\u2014converting those miscues into 10 points.\u00a0 Georgia should have a fresh Todd Gurley for this Southeastern Conference affair, as he had just six carries for 73 yards in the first half against the Trojans.\u00a0 From a handicapping standpoint, it\u2019s significant to point out that the squad has ran for 520 combined yards on the ground in the last two meetings in this rivalry.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely back the Volunteers due the Bulldogs being 1-6-1 ATS versus teams with a winning record.<\/p>\n
