Unless OSU can get out to a 14+ lead early, they don't have the bodies to go blow for blow with the physicality of a Georgia (as seen vs Michigan the last 2 years). If both teams play their absolute best game, UGA wins handily. I would look to bet OSU live if UGA scores first. Point total lean OVER but it's hard to bet totals with this UGA team because most games they dictate how they want to win.
UGA stopped scoring because it started raining. Come on now. They stopped scoring because they couldn't run the ball vs Tenne frickin see. Ohio State's defensive line is light years better than Tennessee and Mike Hall Jr. their best dt should be back to 100% after barely playing the second half of the season. This will be by far the best dl UGA has seen. They start 4 former 5 stars.
You also blame the weather for georgia not being able to score vs Tenn but don't even acknowledge that game conditions favored UM'S style of play in both games they lost. Passing game was off in the cold windy conditions.
You really think Milton and Mitchell make much of a difference vs actually having an actual rb playing the position? Williams is arguably better than any UGA rb but again they had zero threat running the ball vs UM because they had a their emergency rb who was actually a linebacker starting. Not to mention Hall jr, and both starting cb's should be back. They are going to as healthy as they have been since week 1 probably. No Henderson or Smith NJigba.
I would say the trenches are a wash. OSU's offensive line is the best UGA has seen. UM' is very comparable if not better than UGA'S.. They are definitely better running the ball. OSU has a very good dl that is deep and experienced and as I said they should return their best interior dl. UGa's dl is the best OSU has seen.
OSU's back 7 is their problem. But their Cb's have been injured off an on all year. Lb's are average.
Georgia is going to have to score. They are not going to have the adantage of 30 degree weather and 20 mph winds in the dome. UGA'S back 7 is very beatable as we have seen to far inferior teams talent wise. 500 yds passing to a backup qb?
I don't know if you actually watched the Osu vs UM game by the way you talk. It took runs of 75 and 85 yards late in the 4th quarter to get Michigan over 4.0 ypc and 100 yards rushing for the game. UM runs the ball better than UGA. You act like they just ran the ball the entire game. Didn't happen. Blown coverages, turnovers, penalties, terrible play calls cost them the game. Not the trenches. I think you are in for a rude awakening. OSU will score at least 30 vs UGA . Can UGA score that many vs them? Hsrd to gauge since thry have not played anyone close the talent level.

And why did UM get those runs late in the game? Trenches and depth... damn the weather, physicality wears guys down over the course of the game. OSU has gotten softer and more finesse each year under Ryan Day.
I agree UGA will have to score, I think the winner here will be around 35-40. No doubt UGA will probably give up 2-3 long plays in the passing game; going to need safeties to play a good game or OSU will really put some pressure on. A key matchup to watch will be UGA's non-WR weapons making catches. Bowers, Washington, and McIntosh almost always end up with an LB trying to cover and it rarely works. Monken likes to make LBs run and if those intermediate throws to TEs are connecting early, the OSU defense will be in a bad spot.
We'll see about the rude awakening...

What a terrible take. Tennessee would destroy Ohio State yet UGA treated them like little cousins at a family picnic. And saying the D line at Tenn is worse than Oh St? Really? Do you watch college football? Kirby has a track record of getting big leads and then just running out the clock. It has worked 33 out of the last 34 games as their only loss was to Bama in the SEC Championship game. And the naysayers talking about LSU throwing for 500 yards always forget to mention LSU was down 30-3 and the game was already over. by then. They had to throw on every play and still lost embarrassingly by 20 points. Stroud told local Ohio media that he was going to skip Ohio State's bowl game to prepare for the draft and he's only playing in this game so as not to lose his man card. This frail undersized kid is already looking to the NFL where he knows he will fail like all other Buckeye QBs have before him. Ohio State has great WRs and that is it. They are worse everywhere else in size, talent, skill, toughness, etc and the D Line and O line of UGA are exponentially bigger and faster and better. This looks like a 38-21 game or something similar. Oh St thrives on gimmicky deep ball hail mary's where they are succesful based on the awful competition they play. That won't happen against UGA. UGA went 7-0 against raked opponents with an average victory of 28 points. Oh St went 2-1 against ranked opponents with an average margin of victory of 11 points. And don't get me started on the awful secondary of the Buckeyes. Spread has gone from 6.5 to 7.5 and O/U from 60 points to 64 points based on 905 of $ coming in on UGA. Oh St fans are so freaking stupid. UGA has easily beaten Clemson, Alabama, Michigan and yes Oh St the last times they have played. Stop being a homer moron.

UGA is better than any team Oh St has played in many years. And that Michigan team that thumped you easily the last 2 times you played...they lost 38-11 (scored 8 pts with seconds left in the game) and had 0 sacks or tackles for loss even with Aidan Hutchison. Buckeyes about to get beatdown. $ coming in on UGA and the Over.

"They had one of if not the most mundane and favorable SEC schedules I've ever seen."
Funny. Your take is not accurate. UGA 7-0 against ranked teams by an average of 28 points. Ohio State 2-1 against ranked teams by an average of 11 points. But go on, go ahead and tell everybody that Ohio State would beat Tennessee, Oregon and LSU. Not a chance. They don't have the athletes to compete with elite teams except for at WR.

But no one ever forces them to throw by scoring enough on them to do so.. Ohio State is the only team they've played to meet the freeze point in talent all year that could move it on them and keep them on the field on defense. Georgia coaching is why they usually stop even trying to score offensively in games and they just haven't played any QB's or talented rosters that can make them pay for doing that. Look at the last 3 uga losses with Bennett, all of them ended up with him having to be a regular QB and make plays with his arm and he tossed it to the other team and it got ugly in them all.
@jwheels86 - "One thing is certain, UGA is not gonna out coach anybody".........who was the 2021 & 2022 SEC Coach of the Year? and why have a number of his Assistant's been getting head coaching positions? And more may be leaving after playoffs for HC. Go ahead and look at recruits committed for 2023 and 2024, how about win loss record in last 30 games. No point to keep going, I agree to disagree.

Buckeyes could not even handle Michigan in a close game vs a rival, now you step up even more on a neutral field?
NO
Georgia has already played 1 perfect game this year...watched it. OSU has not. Even if OSU does, and thats a big if, do you not think Georgia is looking at this line and chatter thinking, really? They are doubting us?
Many of you doubted Michigan I will bet.....and now you think OSU wants another shot right? So they will magically turn the motivation button on and hang with Georgia within a TD?
So what is OSU's style? Start there.....and ask yourself, is it similar to Tennessee?
I need compelling reasons other than feelings its possible.... but knock yourself out and hope you hit it big
Cheers, good luck
Proving is hard. Talk is easy.
