The No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs will aim to prevent a second loss of the season as they take on the No. 16 Ole Miss Rebels this Saturday afternoon on the road.
Georgia has been on a winning streak, claiming four consecutive victories since their setback against then-No. 4 Alabama at the end of September. They defeated Florida Gators 34-20 last week.
Meanwhile, Ole Miss has bounced back with two wins against unranked teams after their losses to Kentucky Wildcats and then-No. 13 LSU in a three-week span.
For the Rebels, securing a victory on Saturday is crucial to keep their hopes alive for a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Ole Miss has encountered only one ranked opponent this season, leading to an overtime defeat against LSU Tigers last month.
Georgia
Georgia has an important game ahead against No. 7 Tennessee Volunteers next week, making this matchup a crucial win for the Bulldogs as they aim to avoid a second loss of the season.
They have secured four consecutive victories since their defeat to Alabama Crimson Tide, winning each of those games by a significant margin.
Their standout performance this season occurred three weeks ago against then-No. 1 Texas Longhorns, where junior running back Trevor Etienne rushed for 87 yards and scored three touchdowns.
Etienne has proven to be a dependable asset in Georgia’s backfield, averaging 5.1 yards per carry.
With a seasoned quarterback, a top-tier head coach, and a formidable defense, the Bulldogs possess all the necessary elements to succeed in a challenging away game.
They have been dominant in their recent encounters, winning 11 of the last 12 matchups between these two teams.
Ole Miss
As the Rebels wrap up their season with matchups against Florida Gators and Mississippi State Bulldogs, they have a prime opportunity to strengthen their case for a College Football Playoff position.
Coming off two solid victories against Oklahoma Sooners and Arkansas, they secured an impressive 63-31 win over the Razorbacks last week.
Senior quarterback Jaxson Dart showcased his talent by completing 25 of 31 passes for 515 yards and tossing six touchdowns, while senior wide receiver Jordan Watkins had a standout performance with eight catches for 254 yards and five touchdowns.

The Rebels seem to be hitting their stride at the perfect moment and will have the support of an energetic crowd this Saturday.
They’ve covered the spread in seven of their last ten games, whereas Georgia has managed to cover just once in their past seven outings.
Bulldogs-Rebels Best Bet
I’d have to lean toward Georgia -2 points in this matchup as it’s just under the key number of 3. It should be close but this one feels like the Bulldogs squeak by with a FG late to win.
The best bet in this matchup is Georgia and the 2 points at -110 odds at BetMGM.
