6. Texas Longhorns

Georgia’s SEC finale will see them welcome the Texas Longhorns to Sanford Stadium for another massive matchup. Texas will have revenge on their minds this game after losing to Georgia twice last season. But there's one problem, Texas isn't as good as they were last year.

The Longhorns are 3-1 this season, but all three of their wins have come against lesser opponents. Their one loss came on the road against Ohio State which isn't a bad loss, but it was definitely an ugly loss after only scoring seven points. Arch Manning also hasn't looked very strong in their three wins either, so that is why Texas is barely hanging on to their top 10 ranking right now.

Texas begins SEC play this week where they will finally be challenged again, and it would not be surprising to see them drop a couple games before facing Georgia. But even though UGA might be the better team on paper, the Bulldogs don't feel like they're in a spot where they will run the table the rest of this season.

Georgia loses 20-17
