Georgia Bulldogs Betting Preview
Georgia kicked off the year on a pretty nice run. Once the calendar flipped over to 2025 however, the Bulldogs began to struggle in the record column. Georgia hit a 12-1 run in their first 13 outings, losing to only Marquette alongside wins over Tennessee Tech, Texas Southern, North Florida, Georgia Tech, Alabama A&M, St. John’s, Jacksonville, Notre Dame, Grand Canyon, Buffalo, Charleston Southern and South Carolina State. A 2-5 stretch came next with wins over Kentucky and Oklahoma alongside losses to Ole Miss, Tennessee, Auburn, Arkansas and Florida. Since then it’s been a 2-2 run for the Bulldogs with wins over South Carolina and LSU amid losses to Alabama and Mississippi State, giving Georgia a 16-8 overall run through the first 24 outings of the season so far.
In the Mississippi State game on Saturday, the Bulldogs came out of the locker room with a 40-32 deficit. Georgia got better in the second, recovering on a 43-36 stretch but it wasn’t enough in a 76-75 defeat. Leading scorer Silas Demary posted 23 points with six rebounds and seven assists. Asa Newell added 16 points with four rebounds and three steals, while Dakota Leffew put up 12 points with two rebounds and two assists in 33 minutes of action.
Texas A&M Aggies Betting Preview
Over on the Aggies’ side, they’ve really got only a rough five-game stretch in the books this year. Otherwise it’s been a very nice run overall. Texas A&M went 4-2 in their first six games with losses to UCF and Oregon, beating East Texas A&M, Lamar, Ohio State and Southern otherwise in that time. Wins over Creighton, Rutgers, Wake Forest, Texas Tech, Purdue, Houston Christian, Abilene Christian, Texas and Oklahoma came next, then losses to Alabama and Kentucky. Since then Texas A&M has been on a 5-1 run with a lone loss to Texas among wins over LSU, Ole Miss, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Missouri in that time. The result so far has been an 18-5 overall run through 23 games for the Aggies.
In the Missouri game on Saturday, the Aggies were in firm control 38-29 by halftime. Texas A&M let up a little bit in the second on a 35-29 deficit but still held on for the win 67-64 in the end. Leading the team in scoring was Pharrel Payne with 20 points, four rebounds, two blocks and a steal. Wade Taylor chipped in 15 points, and Zhuric Phelps added 14 points with two boards and two steals. Henry Coleman notched a team-high 16 rebounds along with his six points in 31 minutes of work as well.

Texas A&M vs Georgia Prediction
I’ll stick with the Aggies. Texas A&M took out a pretty darn good Missouri team on the road in their last outing, thanks to a pretty solid 45.3 percent shooting and 34 rebounds. The Aggies did cough up 13 turnovers for 18 Tigers points in a fairly sloppy overall game (27 total turnovers) and went just 14-of-23 (60.9 percent) from the line. There’s plenty to clean up here, even after a nice win. That said, Texas A&M is 5-1 in their last six games and they’ve held opponents below 69 points in four of those six.
As for Georgia, they’ve been scoring pretty well lately but they’re also giving up quite a bit on the other side. The Bulldogs have 69 or more points in each of the last four games (a 2-2 run) so we should have a pretty decent total here. All things considered though, the Aggies should be in control.
