Georgia vs Arkansas Prediction
In this Georgia vs Arkansas Prediction, Georgia is coming as -24.5 road favorites. Both teams are coming off opposite outcomes in the previous week and Georgia has been undefeated, looking excellent so far and being ranked as no.2 team in the entire country. They have the best offense in the country and almost a top-20 defense, for a dominating +55 point differential, while Arkansas lost by 33 points in its only game against an FBS team and has failed to cover the spread in both games this season. I expect Georgia to dominate this one and cover the big number on the road.
