Georgia Tech vs California Prediction

I’m on Georgia Tech in this game. I haven’t been one to back the Yellow Jackets for much of the season, but there’s no denying that Georgia Tech’s the team in far better form coming into this game, from a win/loss and an ATS perspective and Georgia Tech’s had some solid wins like beating Stanford and Louisville in some of their recent games. Cal, more often than not this season, has had trouble with the coast-to-coast travel spots that are the perils of their new conference, and I think this could be another trip-up spot for the Golden Bears. I think the Yellow Jackets find a way to get the job done here so I’ll back Georgia Tech in this one.
