Georgia vs Missouri Prediction
Missouri comes into this matchup ranked #21 in the country and they are coming off of a dominating win against Oklahoma, but they will be on the road for this game. The Tigers did lose to Texas A&M and Tennessee prior to that Oklahoma game, but this Georgia team is not as difficult to play against. Georgia has lost three of their last four games and they only scored 53 points in their last game against Texas A&M. The Bulldogs are shooting 46% from the field this year, but they have scored 75+ points in two of their last three games. Georgia has been pretty solid at home this year, but they have struggled to beat anyone good over the last few weeks. Take Missouri here.
