Alabama vs. Georgia Anytime Touchdown Scorer Predictions: College Football Week 5
Georgia’s Kirby Smart is 1-6 in his head coaching career against Alabama, and the Bulldogs have lost nine of the last 10 games in this rivalry. Yet the Bulldogs are 3-point favorites as I break down my Alabama vs. Georgia anytime touchdown scorer predictions ahead of kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET (ABC).
Georgia is a popular play among our college football picks considering it's won 33 straight games at Sanford Stadium in Athens - tied for the second-longest home stadium winning streak in SEC history. It all factors into my college football predictions for Week 5.

💰 Best Alabama vs. Georgia touchdown scorer bets
Our college football player prop odds tool shows the best odds for every market across legal sportsbooks in your area.
🔥 Ryan Williams, WR, Alabama (+163) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sophomore sensation Ryan Williams is one of four Crimson Tide pass catchers with at least two touchdown receptions. Thus, while quarterback Ty Simpson has been spreading the ball around, I expect him to key on Alabama’s most talented perimeter weapon on the biggest stage.
That is especially true after Williams caught six passes (his second-most of the season) for 177 yards and a touchdown in last year’s matchup against Georgia. He also features as a reason that Alabama can get the job done today in Rob Paul's Alabama vs. Georgia prediction.
The only true way to beat the Bulldogs defense consistently seems to be through the air. Georgia ranks 10th in rushing success rate allowed but outside the top 85 against the pass. Look for a heavy passing volume day from Simpson to pay off in Williams finding the end zone for the second straight year in this rivalry.
The value at bet365 for this wager is massive compared to the +115 odds (carrying a 46.51% implied probability) at the opposite end of the market. A $10 winning wager would net $4.80 more in profits just by shopping smartly, with a $16.30 return at bet365 compared to $11.50 at FanDuel.

🔥 Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia (+170) ⭐⭐⭐
Georgia has averaged 27.8 points per game in its last five meetings with Alabama - it's scored 37.9 points per game while going 63-3 in the last 66 games against everyone else. But the near four-touchdown average against the Crimson Tide suggests there is some value to be had when looking for Bulldogs as an Alabama vs. Georgia anytime touchdown scorer prediction.
Zachariah Branch has been Georgia’s most reliable playmaker in turning short passes into big gains. This Alabama defense is susceptible to big plays, as it allowed four plays of 25-plus yards in the Florida State game alone.
Branch has scored a touchdown in two of three games this season, and his 42.55% implied odds on the high end of the market to do so again are a great value. Through BetMGM’s +170 odds, a $10 winning wager would return $17 in profits.

🔥 Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama (+250) ⭐⭐
There is too much value in this wager on a quarterback who figures to be dropping back (and scrambling) a ton - and one who already has a rushing touchdown this year.
Since Week 1, Simpson ranks third among all FBS quarterbacks in QBR (96), first in completion percentage (89%), and second in yards per attempt (13.2), and he's only taken one sack.
Georgia’s stout run defense could force Simpson over his season high in pass attempts (43), which increases the odds of him using his legs. But Simpson could also just as easily cash this wager at the goal-line with a short plunge.
Simpson’s implied anytime touchdown odds are as high as 38.02% via bet365, the only sportsbook offering shorter than +200 odds (+163). By far the best payout for this wager is through FanDuel’s +250 odds, which would net $25 on a winning $10 wager.
