Georgia is 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games overall and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games while the over is 6-1 in their last 7 games following a win. Wake Forest is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following an ATS loss and 6-18-2 ATS in their last 26 Friday games while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 games following a win.
I get the case to be made for either side here, but I’m looking at the under here. Neither side has been all that impressive offensively out of the gate and both are missing key pieces, especially Georgia who has one of their better players listed as doubtful for this game in Moncreiffe. I think this just ends up being a low-scoring slopfest where the first to 70 wins if we even get that high. Give me the under here.
