  • The Georgia Bulldogs are 7-0 SU and 6-1 ATS in their last seven games against SEC opponents. The Bulldogs continue their march toward the SEC championship game as they host the South Carolina Gamecocks this Saturday.

    SHARK BITES
    • South Carolina is 1-3 SU and ATS in its last four games against Georgia.
    • Georgia is 36-6 SU in its last 42 games at home.
    • The total has gone OVER in South Carolina’s last four games against Georgia.

    Georgia has climbed up to No. 2 in the AP Top 25 poll after a brilliant performance in a 42-7 blowout win over the Florida Gators in Jacksonville. Sony Michel and Nick Chubb combined for 214 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns in the victory, continuing to prove themselves as one of the best one-two punches in the nation. The Bulldogs are 9-0 SU and 7-2 ATS over their last nine games.

    South Carolina outlasted Vanderbilt in a 34-27 win on Saturday, becoming bowl-eligible with a 6-2 SU and 5-2-1 ATS record on the year. The Gamecocks entered this season with a 1-9 SU and 3-7 ATS record in their last 10 games on the road, but they’ve been much better this season at 2-1 SU and 3-0 ATS. The maturation of sophomore quarterback Jake Bentley has helped this offense be more of a threat in 2017.
