This Saturday, the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs (2-0) take on the South Carolina Gamecocks (1-1) in Columbia, South Carolina. The game will be televised on ESPN and will kick off at noon ET. The Bulldogs are a 24.5-point favorite over the Gamecocks, per BetMGM, with the over/under set at 51.5.
On paper, this one is all Georgia. And that will likely be how it plays out on the field Saturday as well. But some wild things can happen in Williams-Brice Stadium as Georgia fans saw in 2012 and again in 2014. Rewind to 2019, South Carolina gave UGA its only loss regular-season loss in a double-overtime game in Athens.
