1 stat that will carry Georgia to victory vs Alabama

Georgia is gearing up for their showdown with Alabama later this weekend as the Bulldogs have revenge on their minds. Last year the Crimson Tide won a close battle after UGA battled all the way back after trailing 28-0, but now that Alabama has to come to Athens, the Bulldogs are hoping they can change the course of this rivalry.

The fact that this game is at home for Georgia however is one of the biggest reasons why the Bulldogs have a great chance to win this game.

Data shows Georgia has a great chance to beat Alabama

Everyone knows how valuable home field advantage is in college football. However, just because a team is playing at home does not guarantee they will actually win the game.

But recent data shows that Georgia has a great chance to beat Alabama on Saturday simply because they are the home team.

The Bulldogs enter this matchup currently riding a 33 game home win streak. During this streak, Georgia has beaten eight top 15 teams and only won four games by less than 10 points. So not only is Georgia winning at home, they are dominating teams.

But how good is Alabama on the road? Georgia has not beaten the Crimson Tide at home during this win streak, but data also shows that Alabama has really been struggling on the road recently.

Alabama’s 2-6 record on the road includes a loss earlier this season at Florida State, so their road struggles have continued into this season.

While this data does suggest that Georgia has a great chance to win this game, it by no means guarantees they will emerge victorious. But Georgia fans have endless reasons to be confident entering this game, and their success at home combined with Alabama’s struggles on the road is one of the biggest reasons why.
