The Georgia Bulldogs’ greatest strength may be their halftime adjustments.
Then again, that is a needed strength because of their greatest weakness: starting games far too slowly.
With the Texas Longhorns utterly desperate to stay in contention for the College Football Playoff, another sluggish Bulldogs’ start would be as noticeable as ever.
My Texas vs. Georgia predictions recognize the Bulldogs’ greatest weakness, as well as their greatest strength.

Our best Texas vs Georgia SGP for Week 12
A loss would all but knock Texas out of the Playoff conversation. The Longhorns know this, and they will not dawdle at kickoff on Saturday night.
Georgia certainly will, as the Bulldogs have been favored by a single possession five times this season. Georgia has trailed in the first half in all five games, trailing at halftime in four of them and tied in the fifth.
The Bulldogs then came back and won four of those games, falling only to Alabama. This is a costly bad habit, but it is also an enjoyable one for us viewers, leading to regular drama from a Georgia team far inferior to its peak to start the decade.
As bettors, this can be a profitable habit. Recognizing Georgia’s greatest strength creates chances to fade the Bulldogs early on, as well as perhaps bet on them live at halftime.
