After Sportsbook SEC play with a tough loss to the Gamecocks in Columbia, Georgia steps back out of conference to entertain Troy on Saturday afternoon between the hedges. The Bulldogs are only 1-4 ATS in their last five games against the Sun Belt Conference, but the Trojans are only 2-5 ATS in their last seven games against the SEC.

Georgia opened this season with a quality win at Clemson, but fell last week, in part, because its kicker missed a very short field goal that would have tied the game late. Troy, meanwhile, is 0-3 SU, 1-2 ATS after getting upset by Abilene Christian last week.
