The Match-Up
Georgia offense vs Mississippi St defense
It really is this simple. If the Bulldogs can run the ball effectively on Mississippi St this game is over. Nick Chubb and Sony Michel provide a great 1-2 punch but they face the #27 rush D in the FBS. Mississippi St shut down an LSU squad that cannot MATRICULATE in the passing game but we feel that Georgia provides more of a challenge in that regard. Freshman QB Jake Fromm has been pretty decent so far with a 5-1 TD to INT ratio. We feel that this will be similar to the Notre Dame game. Run the ball decently. Win the game with defense and the odd big play / great catch.
Mississippi St offense vs Georgia defense
This is going to be so much fun to watch. Mississippi St QB dual threat QB Nick Fitzgerald vs the Georgia defense. Yes, Georgia shut down Irish QB Brandon Wimbush, but Fitzgerald has more ability to hurt you whilst MATRICULATING in the passing game. The secret weapon for Mississippi St has been RB Aeris Williams who has bagged 336 yards rushing at 7 yards a pop. This will also be a fun match-up to watch. Georgia is excellent vs the run but will have a stern challenge on Saturday.
MEGA-MAZING BITS
Georgia home games are on a 13-3 run to the under in the last 16 contests…..Mississippi St last won at Georgia in 1956…..MEGALOCKS TV INSIDERS most likely would have been watching The Honeymooners.
Summary
This is a really tough game to handicap. Is Mississippi St as good as advertised ? Can Georgia contain Mississippi St QB Nick Fitzgerald ? MEGALOCKS DEEP SEC INSIDERS know we love Georgia this season but need to see the line drop a bit (doubtful) before pouncing.
Conclusion
No official play yet. Small potatoes leanage to Georgia at +4.5/5. Will reconsider for FULL UNIT ACTION if peeps pound the line down to -4 or lower.
