Presbyterian vs Georgia Prediction

In this Northeastern vs Georgia Prediction, Georgia is coming as -21.5 home favorites. Both teams are coming off opposite outcomes in their opening games of the season, as Georgia won easily at home and will be playing their second straight game at home to start the season, while Presbyterian lost by almost double digits at home and will be tested for the first time on the road against a strong Georgia defense that held its opponents into just 62 points in their season opener. Georgia was also better on the glass in its first game and had a whopping 13 total steals and I expect them to chock an inferior Presbyterian team defensively and win this one comfortably. Take Georgia and lay the -21.5 points at home.
