Kirby Smart's powerhouse plays its first game outside the state of Georgia. But what difference does that make? The defense has allowed 3 total points in two games, including unleashing a 49-3 blowout of No. 11 Oregon. Defensive tackle Jalen Carter leads a dominant and talented defense while the offense has 24-year-old, sixth-year QB Stetson Bennett. Georgia is 17-5 ATS as a road favorite, 20-6 ATS after a spread loss, plus 27-10 ATS on the road after allowing 14 points or fewer in two straight contests. South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler turned the ball over too many times at Oklahoma and now with the Gamecocks, he has 2 TDs, 3 interceptions. The offense was #13 in passing and scoring, #11 in rushing, in the SEC last year and in 2022 they're averaging just 2.0 yards per rush. On defense, South Carolina's rushing 'D' was terrible in 2021 surrendering 187.3 yards per game and they come off a 44-30 loss to Arkansas surrendering 295 yards rushing. Georgia won 40-13 last year with 491 yards while going 9-of-12 on third down and the road team has covered six straight when these teams clash. Play Georgia.
