SBR's Rob Paul takes a look at the matchup in his early Georgia vs Tennessee prediction:

Under 50.5 (-110)

"Neither of these teams has been tested yet, with Georgia taking on Marshall and Austin Peay, while Tennessee has played Syracuse and East Tennessee State. So it's hard to gauge if either Gunner Stockton or Joey Aguilar, both new starting QBs for these College Football Playoff odds contenders, is a legitimate threat.

Both have looked good through two weeks, but beating up on FCS programs isn't a strong indicator that their success will continue in SEC play. Instead, I love this Under, with Georgia and Tennessee both ranking top six in SP+ on defense and outside of the top 10 on offense. I'm banking on Kirby Smart and Glenn Schumann to get the best of Josh Heupel's veer and shoot, and for Tim Banks to continue quietly orchestrating an elite defense in Knoxville.

With so many future NFL defensive players like CJ Allen, Christen Miller, Joshua Josephs, and Boo Carter taking the field in this game, it could be a bloodbath at Neyland Stadium."
