The #1 Texas Longhorns (6-0) will host #5 Georgia (5-1) at DK on Oct. 19 at 6:30 p.m.
Vegas says Texas is a 2.5 pt favorite as the week begins.
TV: ABC, ESPN+
ESPN Matchup Predictor – Texas 76.5%, Georgia 23.5%
Weather – Accuweather says game time temperature will be 79 degrees.
ESPN's College GameDay crew will be in town for this one.
Texas will host no less than 35 recruits who are either 5-star or 4-star for this game.
This is the game that Texas and Texas fans have had circled on the schedule for quite some time. Georgia spent the early season ranked #1 and fell from that rankoing with their loss to Alabama.
Georgia will by far be the best team Texas has faced this season. Their offense is seasoned though they miss the weapons they had last year.
Georgia has its back against the wall in this one. If they lose a second game, it will be tough for them to get to the playoff. They would have to be perfect from here out. We all know about Georgia's off the field problems and can see that it has started taking its toll. But they are still a very explosive team.
In analyzing their wins, you see what appears to be a less than powerful team. They squeeked by Kentucky 18-12. They beat Auburn by 31-13 at home. And they allowed Miss. State to score 31 points in their 41-31 win this week. So we're seeing some cracks there.
Texas is relatively healthy coming into this one. We're still waiting to hear how serious Safety Derek Williams' injury is.
QB Quinn Ewers was very rusty for the OU game but seemed to work himself out of the slump as the game proceeded. Thats good news. Hopefully Ewers will ccntinue to be a great QB in big games as he has so far in his career.
While Tre Wisner looked awesome against OU, he will have some help in the Georgia game as Gibson should be fully back from being dinged up and Blue should be fully back by then.
IMO, this one ccmes down to who wins the trenches and who has the turnovers.
