This week brings one of the most important games of the college football season. The Tennessee Volunteers will visit the Georgia Bulldogs. Head coach Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs are coming off an embarrassing road loss to the Ole Miss Rebels in a game in which Lane Kiffin outcoached Smart. The Bulldogs remain in the hunt for the SEC and College Football Playoff. However, UGA has no margin for error. The Dawgs will host the Vols between the hedges in a matchup with major SEC and CFP implications.
The Volunteers and Bulldogs Week 12 showdown is the ABC Saturday night feature matchup.
Georgia will be a strong betting on college football using crypto draw for the casual sector as a power home team at a small price. Sharps will buy into the Bulldogs as a perennial name-brand national championship contender playing at home after a bad loss. Others will look at Tennessee as the power road dog getting plenty of points.
On Saturday, November 16, 2024, the Georgia Bulldogs will host the Tennessee Volunteers at Sanford Stadium in Athens, GA. Kickoff time is set for 7:30 p.m. ET, and television coverage will be on ABC.

Tennessee Volunteers Team Overview
Last game, the Tennessee Volunteers won 33-14 against the Mississippi State Bulldogs as 26-point home favorites. The game went under the total of 61. Tennessee has a record of 8-1 straight up, 5-4 against the spread, and 4-5 over/under the total.
Tennessee ranks 8th for total offense, 59th for passing, 9th for rushing and 15th for scoring. Defensively they rank 5th overall, 15th against the pass, 9th against the rush, and 5th for points allowed. Also, UT ranks 55th for fewest turnovers lost and 52nd for takeaways.
Quarterback Nico Iamaleava was ruled out for the second half with an upper-body injury, which isn’t a good sign. Many were confused when Iamaleava wasn’t on the field, as many didn’t understand when he was injured. Although, at this moment, availability for the Georgia game will remain in question until further notice, the Vols' path to the playoffs could have just gotten a lot harder with the red-shirt freshman going down.
Overall, the Tennessee Volunteers football team is in the black and showing good balance.
Georgia Bulldogs Team Overview
Last game, the Georgia Bulldogs lost 28-10 against the Ole Miss Rebels as 2-point road favorites. The game went under the total of 55.5. Georgia has a record of 7-2 straight up, 2-7 against the spread, and 3-6 over/under the total. Georgia ranks 50th for total offense, 17th for passing, 104th for rushing and 48th for scoring. Defensively they rank 13th overall, 36th against the pass, 21st against the rush, and 17th for points allowed. Also, Georgia ranks 92nd for fewest turnovers lost and 91st for takeaways. The Dawgs' defense, while effective at times, was also susceptible to poor moments and allowed a handful of 20-plus-yard plays. Consider that Ole Miss finished the evening with nearly 400 yards of total offense and just one turnover.
Saturday will be UGA’s first home game since Mississippi State when Georgia played them ahead of Texas. The Bulldogs are in a must-win situation for the rest of the season, and it starts with the Volunteers. If Georgia can make it to 10-2 at the end of the season, then they will likely have a shot at the college football playoff.
The Georgia Bulldogs football team is motivated after a poor performance in its loss to Ole Miss.
