Kim Smith writes: “This is a game that should be a great battle on the field. However, the Bulldogs are favored in the game and we simply do not see Georgia being able to pick up the win in this game. The Crimson Tide are playing at home and were able to soundly beat their last opponent and Georgia was barely able to beat the Kentucky Wildcats. Look for this game to be a great game, but for the Crimson Tide to pull out the win here.”
