Thanks shep for the input.. Scary thing is when it looks too good to be true it usually is... Having said that if that is the case here it will be worth the 220 I will lose just to see it happen... I just cant see this even being close... If Spurrier had a month to get them ready for this game it wouldn't matter he don't have the 'S... In fact he has a at QB that ought to be good for about 2 picks and a fumble on saturday... BULLDOGS ALL THE WAY Just one dummies opinion, Goodluck all

line looks too small at first glance. Bet against SC last week, and will do again. Don't think they can hang here. That being said, UGA schedule is too tough to take them to the title game, I think they will be a great team to fade later in the season.

The line is low due to what I call the "Spurrier effect". Many bettors will bet SC just thinking he will find the old magic, or unveil some secret trick plays. The difference now is SOS doesn't have the horses he has at Florida, and he is particularly lacking in offensive talent this year. No QB leader, and no breakaway backs. Despite a solid defense, UGA will blow this one open. I follow all CFB closely, but especially the SEC, this is one you should bet heavy for the following reasons:
1. Inept SC offense against a talented UGA defense will give the Dawgs good field position all day. Stafford, Moreno, and the best receivers UGA has ever had will move the ball from short field positions. SC's linebackers weigh 270 and 265, think they can handle Georgia's speedy backs, tight end, or slot receivers in coverage? Total mismatch. UGA is 8 for 8 in the red zone....all TDs, admittedly aginst weaker defenses. But they can beat you so many ways this year
2. SC's best receiver, Mckinley, left the Vandy game with a hamstring pull and will not be at full speed, if he plays at all. No deep threat in passing, and no breakaway threats at RB means UGA can crowd the line. SC will have under 200 yards offense unless they move it against Georgia's walkons late. SC's offensive line is almost as weak as the two QBs Spurrier is deciding between.
3. Revenge game for Georgia. The upset loss last year may have cost UGA a shot against Ohip State and they are embarassed about it. No way they overlook SC even after Vandy's win last Thursday night.
This series has traditionally been a low scoring, tight game because SC has so many Georgia HS players and they consider it a big game. That is another reason the line is understated. SC will lay it all out again as they try to save their year, but they are just outclassed on both sides of the ball. The only edge SC has (except home field) is with Succup as their kicker versus UGA's freshman playing his first road game, but that will not be nearly enough. Time of possession will wear the SC defense down as the game progresses I see this one: UGA 34 SC 10 with UGA's starters out in the 4th Qtr. getting ready for ASU in Tempe the next week..

Macallanlover - Vegas sometimes will put out lines that they think the public will jump on hoping the underdog hits and they'll make a ton of jack.... this is probably one of those games.. if you take into account the past history it's not a bad spot for Vegas.... but their not always right just like us....

Agree Sharp, in addition to the SOS effect, many bettors put a lot of emphasis on historical trends. I pay attention to those, but do not place as much priority on them as some. Could be close early, but SC defense will be spending a lot of time in the hot afternoon sun as the offense has many 3 and outs. I think the reason the line hasn't moved much is due to these reasons, not an objective analysis. The SC offensive line is terrible, even if you had a strong QB. Those two reasons, the loss of McKinley, and not having a breakaway back is too much for the defensice unit too overcome. 3 TDs+

Ok guys, let me just say this. . As an avid die hard CAT fan in the SEC, I can't tell you how unimpressed I am with the DAWGS team. Every year they begin the season with so much hype that it turns my stomach, because I know they are a 9 win team by the end of the year, just about every year, give or take. But never do they ever live up to the expectations of ESPN and the talking heads. With having said all that, Please don't misconstrue my Patriotism towards the SEC. It's the best brand of football in the land. But come on, USC does not cover this spread. I say this to inform those who dont know, that the SEC is taking on a new identity, in that the powers of the SEC are relocating and settling in other places throughout the SEC. For the past year or so everyone was still up in the air on the Gamecock team. Let me assure you, Spurrier is on the verge of retirement, the Old Ball coach lost his recruiting power, and simply does not have the personell on the team to keep up with Spurrier. Its a bad relationship and it only going to get worse. Gamecocks are a sure fire winner all year when you bet against them!

i agree with Sharp about this line... too many people reading into it... i think Vegas expects a lot of wise guys to be on SC as an SEC home dog... its usually a good spot... so don't read too much more than that into the line... SC did knock off Georgia last year afterall...

Freak, good that you can put aside your obvious dislike for UGA and see this game as the strong play it is. Bad for bettors to get too emotionally involved in their picks. That said, you are ignoring the indisputable facts about UGA's record. Even if your stomach is turning you certainly must see that Georgia has averaged over ten wins per year under Richt (including just 8 his first season), and finished in the Top 10 five of the last six years. That hardly qualifies as not living up to the hype, or underachieving.
And you can get used to it again next year as they return about 18 starters, plus get the two starting tackles back they lost earlier this season to injuries. You may not like it, but they have a better chance next season to win the SEC, even if Moreno goes pro early, as the schedule is slightly easier with home advantage against Auburn, LSU, ASU, and SC. Good luck to the Cats, the defense looks pretty solid this season. To state it again, Dawgs roll by 3 TDs+ on Saturday.

Macallanlover I'll admit that I am a homer UGA an, but you are crazy saying that UGA is over-hyped every year. They NEVER get the kind of press they have gotten this year and they absolutely deserved it this year. I have my doubts now with the injuries they have sustained, but there was little question that they would compete for the BCS title coming into the season. I would take them against Ohio St any day of the year.
To re-state what several others have said already, UGA rolls in this game. SC will be without their biggest offensive weapon (or at least he will be hobbled) and UGA has no trouble putting up points. Not to mention UGA's "D" will get a boost from some returning players. There is no question that last year's upset loss to SC cost UGA a chance to play for the SEC and BCS titles, so they will be very wary of a repeat performance. UGA will pound the ball down SC's throat with one of the best back tandems in CFB. And when SC overcompensates for the run Stafford will light them up down field. Don't be fooled - Spurrier is closer to a gold watch than he is to competing in the SEC again. Take UGA and break your bookie this weekend. Good luck fellas.

Uh SuckerBet, you have me confused with Big Blue Freak who said they were always over hyped. I explained they had finished in the Top 10 five of the last six years, thus living up to the billing, or exceeding the expectations.
I just laid a heavy bet on Georgia tonight fearing the line would go up as more people study this game. I am 7X my normal bet on this game. I am picking them to win by 3 TDs. Good luck to all the Georgia bettors in this game. We should all enjoy a good payoff Saturday evening.

Think the Gamecocks will have trouble putting up points against the UGA defense- but their defense will put up a good fight keeping it low scoring(at least in the 1st half). A hard hitting game that's gonna rattle some heads- lookin for the D's to shine. Under will probably be my play.

DOES THE LINE LOOK TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE? YES. HAVE THE BOOKIES SUCKED SPURRIERS COCK THOROUGHLY THIS YEAR AS IN YEARS PAST? NO. THEY'RE DOING THE SAME THING HERE!!! THERES NO SECRET HERE. SO STOP LOOKING FOR ONE!!

OH don't know about that I think the cocks are as overrated as their "great D" vandy didnt have much trouble scoring.. I really think the scrubs will be entering with about 8 min left in the 3rd however if it was me I would let them dogs eat all day and embarrass the shit out of spurrier just because he loves to run it up when he can... I would bust the friggen scoreboard and that aint all against this team Georgia could do it!!!

well...I believe that the gamecocks stink big time...I watched both games earlier this year..nothing. Georgia is always suspect to me but I think they roll big time....Alsowatch the memphis /marshall game....memphis barely lost to rice. Rice has a killer quarterback..watch them against vandy. Memphis looks really good despite the two early efforts.

All over Georgia here. They are the much better team. South Carolina struggled to put points on the board against NC State (until 3 late scores in the 4th) and Vandy. What do they expect to do against Georgia? The only thing that scares me here is the line being so low. Does Vegas know something we don't? I'm willing to bet they don't. Also, can you say revenge game? SC beat Georgia 16-12 last year. I don't think they let SC do the same to them this year when they're on a course for the BCS title game.
GEORGIA -7

5 SC football players just got into an altercation at a university food court. No players should be suspended but this definitely isn't good news for a team that is struggling, has had off the field problems in the past, and is headed into maybe their biggest game of the year.

It's true that I am a bit harsh on the Dawgs, and while I sometimes exaggerate my expressions about the Dawgs, they are a very good team. And at the risk of being redundant on this post, I'll say again that USC doesn't cover this spread in a thousand tries. I just mean to say that while UGA is a powerful team, and will continue to be so in the SEC for years to come. . I'd like to see some of that recruiting come out of GA and into Lexington. . LOL I know I know. . .how could I be so selfish. . GO DAWGS, lets run Spurrier out of town and divide the recruits. . LOL GO DAWGS, They will cover 2 and 1/2 TD's here. . and Look for USC to only score somewhere other than offense !!!! Good Luck To All with the weekends bets. . .

My bad. Hope your horse comes in as I am on the same side (obviously).
I am a little concerned that the line hasn't budged. I haven't seen a single person say they are on SC and yet the line is holding at -7.5. I really feel like UGA rolls the shit out of SC tomorrow, but whenever I am really confident and the line is that far off of what I think it is usually bad news for me. Guess the "sharp" money is on the home dog instead of the road dawg, but I just don't see how anyone takes SC in this matchup.
