Georgia vs Ole Miss Prediction
Ole Miss comes into this matchup potentially facing a must-win scenario here if they want to make the College Football Playoff. The Rebels already have two losses on the season and cannot afford a third, but they will have the home-field advantage for this game. Georgia is ranked #2 in the country right now, but they have not been as dominant as we are used to seeing. I am confident that the Ole Miss offense will continue to produce as they have for most of the season, but I have little faith in their defensive unit. Take the over here.
