Why Georgia can cover
After needing to rally from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to post a 26-22 win at Missouri last week, the Bulldogs will be eager to assert themselves against their long-time rivals. Georgia has produced at least 33 points four times while outscoring its opponents 195-54 this season. The team has yielded 22 points in each of its last two contests but ranks fourth in the nation with an average of 10.8 allowed.
The Bulldogs are fifth in the country in total offense, gaining 521.4 yards per game, and rank eighth in passing with an average of 342.8 yards. Senior quarterback Stetson Bennett is coming off his third 300-yard performance of the year (312 against Missouri) and is 11th nationally with 1,536 yards through the air. Bennett also has been an effective part of Georgia's ground attack as he is tied with junior running back Kendall Milton for the team lead with four rushing touchdowns.
Why Auburn can cover
Even though they've lost their last seven visits, the Tigers own an 18-16 all-time record at Athens. They hope to start this matchup the same way they did against LSU last week, when they built a 17-0 lead before allowing 21 unanswered points. Freshman quarterback Robby Ashford was impressive in his second career start, throwing for 337 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
Ashford completed only one of his first three pass attempts before hitting Ja'Varrius Johnson for a 53-yard TD just 2:03 into the contest. A junior wideout, Johnson leads Auburn with 16 catches and 305 receiving yards, gaining at least 73 in three of his four outings. Junior Tank Bigsby is the Tigers' leading rusher with 326 yards and is tied with sophomore Jarquez Hunter for first with four touchdowns on the ground.
