It’s been smooth sailing for the Georgia Bulldogs in their transition from Stetson Bennett to Carson Beck.

They’re 2-0 and have outscored their opponents 93-10. Now, the two-time defending National Champions enter SEC play with a matchup against the South Carolina Gamecocks as big favorites and BetSided college football betting analyst Reed Wallach likes the Bulldogs to cover. Check out his pick and a full betting preview.

South Carolina vs. Georgia odds, spread and total

Betting analyst prediction for Georgia in Week 3

A few years ago, the Gamecocks stole one from Georgia, but since that point the Bulldogs have been making statements in every matchup. The Bulldogs don’t typically play with their food and BetSided CFB betting analyst Reed Wallach expects them to lick their plates clean in this one.

“Since South Carolina won at Georgia four years ago in double overtime, Georgia has won the last three meetings 133-36. The Bulldogs have out-muscled South Carolina in this particular matchup and this game is shaping up to be a similar type of game given the point spread and the early returns of a suspect South Carolina offensive line.”

The offensive line of South Carolina was dominated by UNC in Week 1 and Georgia can certainly get after Spencer Rattler much easier than the Tar Heels did.

“As noted above, the Gamecocks allowed the Tar Heels to rack up 11 tackles for loss and finished with -2 rushing yards on the game. Meanwhile, the Georgia offense will look to open it up against a South Carolina defense that was outside the top 100 in success rate last season and struggled to slow down a potent UNC offense, allowing 31 points on a neutral field.”

Spencer Rattler will be playing from behind and that’s a recipe for disaster. That’s a big reason why Wallach is so comfortable taking Georgia to cover in Week 3.
