The Crimson Tide are 9-1 straight up in their last 10 meetings against Georgia but the Bulldogs have won 28 regular season SEC games, so something has to give in this matchup. Which team has the edge on Saturday? We break down the matchup to find out. Kickoff: Saturday, 6:30 p.

5 Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook NFL Week 4 picks: How to bet Ravens-Bills Georgia Bulldogs vs. Alabama Crimson Tide prediction Both teams are coming into the game after a week off. Alabama has rolled through its early schedule with blowout wins over Western Kentucky, South Florida and Wisconsin.
The Crimson Tide are averaging 49 points a game behind quarterback Jalen Milroe, who has thrown for 590 yards and eight touchdowns while adding 156 yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Georgia enjoyed easy wins over Clemson and Tennessee Tech but were driven to the brink by Kentucky two weeks ago. Despite being big favorites, the Bulldogs needed a second-half rally to win 13-12.
Quarterback Carson Beck has 680 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions. Defensively Georgia has not given up a touchdown yet this season and are yielding just six points per game. Georgia leads the all-time series 43-26-4, but Alabama has won eight of the past nine including a 27-24 win in last year's SEC Championship game that resulted in the Bulldogs being left out of the playoff.
These are two of the best teams in the country and they could easily face off a second time in the SEC Championship, or possibly down the road in the CFB Playoff. The defenses might be a little ahead of the offense at this point, making the over a bit of shaky play. With the spread being so low, you can also consider playing the moneyline instead for either side Saturday.
Recent history points to Bama, but Georgia has to turn the tide (no pun intended) in this series and Beck might be the guy that can carry the Bulldogs to the finish line. Georgia hasn't lost on the road since 2020. Look for that trend to continue here.
