The Georgia Bulldogs have plenty of things to worry about, including a quarterback who has yet to impress and a defensive line with growing injury concerns. But the Bulldogs’ greatest frustration may be their defensive inability early in games.
Mississippi Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin is undoubtedly aware of that liability and intends to exploit it early.
My Mississippi vs. Georgia predictions foresee another stressful start for the Bulldogs at kickoff at 3:30 ET on Saturday, October 18.
Our best Mississippi vs Georgia SGP for Week 8
The Georgia Bulldogs have given up 62 first-half points in its last four games, all SEC games, while then allowing just 24 in the second half, including a garbage-time touchdown to Kentucky.
In fact, Georgia trailed three of those opponents at halftime despite being favored against all four. The Bulldogs defense then bowed up, particularly in the last three games. They gave up just one score in those three second halves, and how much forward-looking worry should be ascribed to a garbage-time touchdown from the Wildcats?
To look at each leg of this same-game parlay in terms of Georgia’s recent struggles: The Bulldogs and their opponents cashed three of four first-half Overs.
Their opponents won against the spread in three of those four games.
And ultimately, only two of the four games stayed Under their totals, though one Over became reality only when Kentucky punched in a last-minute score.
Note if there is an applicable parlay boost available.
