Georgia is a perfect 2-0 entering SEC play after dominant wins against Tennessee State and Western Kentucky to begin their season. Up next for the Bulldogs not only is their first SEC opponent but their first road game of the year as they travel a bit west to face Arkansas.

The Razorbacks are 1-1 coming into this game a blowout loss on the road to Utah last week. They will be ready for this matchup though because there is no greater opponent than Georgia for new head coach Ryan Silverfield to get his first marquee victory against.

As always, we have all the information you need to watch Georgia begin their quest at a third straight SEC Championship this weekend when they face the Arkansas Razorbacks.

How to watch Georgia vs Arkansas

Arkansas will host Georgia at Noon EST on Saturday, Sept. 9. This game time is a bit controversial from Arkansas' perspective because they are coming off a night game across the country at Utah last week. Arkansas complained to the SEC about this game time when it was set months ago because they feel it is unfair to have an 11:00 am local start time after playing so late out west, but Georgia won't be complaining about that.

This game will air on ABC which marks the first game of the season Georgia is on national television. The game will also be available on the ESPN app and Fubo TV.

Georgia vs Arkansas betting odds

Georgia is a 24.5 point favorite over Arkansas, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. This is a big step up from the opening spread of 21.5 points. The over-under for this game is set at 54.5 points as well.

ESPN's matchup predictor loves Georgia in this game too as they give the Bulldogs a 96 percent change to emerge victorious.

Georgia vs Arkansas early predictions

Arkansas is a step up in competition compared to what Georgia has seen so far this season. That means a 50 or 60 point win like the first two weeks is probably out of the question. Georgia fans however should expect another easy win which Vegas is hinting at by their large spread for this game.

Gunner Stockton and some other starters haven't seen the second half of a game yet this season. That will change this week as the game will be too close for Stockton and company to not play in the second half. This game will be well out of reach by the time the fourth quarter begins though and after throwing four touchdowns and running for one more Stockton will sit throughout the final quarter.

Georgia's defense this past week forced their first turnovers of the season and even scored a touchdown after an interception. They once again will score another touchdown this time after a fumble which will be the tipping point in the second half that allows Stockton and other starters to sit.

Game odds adjust periodically and are subject to change.
