Georgia football has reached the final game of the regular season as they will take on Georgia Tech in their season finale. The Bulldogs are still waiting to see if they will make the SEC Championship game, and while this game will have no impact on that it will impact where they stand in the College Football Playoff.

A loss would really hurt their CFP resume to the point where they could miss the playoff altogether. But at the very least a loss would drop them in the rankings and make it impossible to earn a first round bye.

Final odds for Georgia football vs Georgia Tech

About a month ago this matchup looked like it could be the biggest game in the history of the rivalry. Georgia was on a roll after losing to Alabama and the Yellow Jackets were still undefeated and a top 10 team in the country. But Georgia Tech has lost two of their last three games, and Vegas has taken notice.

According to FanDuel Sportsbook, Georgia is now favored by 14.5 points over Georgia Tech. This line has grown a lot throughout the week as it originally opened at 12.5 points, so the public and Vegas are extremely high on Georgia's chances to win this game.

Final prediction: Georgia 41 Georgia Tech 17

Last year Georgia had a lot of problems against Tech at home. It took a miraculous forced fumble and eight overtimes to win a year ago, but that will not be the case this year.

Georgia is a much better team this year, especially on offense. Their defense has also been playing at a much higer level as well, so this game could turn into a bloodbath.

There is no doubt that Georgia Tech will want their revenge after last season, but they are going to have to wait at least another year because Georgia will win this game by a comfortable 41-17 margin.
