Circa Sportsbook had Georgia as a five-point favorite with an over/under of 54.5. Despite being tested by nationally ranked teams, Georgia had consistently won by at least seven points in every game this season.
Alabama, with their only loss to Texas earlier in the season, showcased resilience with ten consecutive wins. The matchup lived up to expectations, culminating in a thrilling 27-24 victory for Georgia, showcasing their ability to withstand late-game heroics.
Predicting a final score of Georgia 34, Alabama 27, the best bet stood firmly with Georgia at -5. In a game marked by history and intensity, Georgia’s 29-game winning streak and back-to-back national championships added an extra layer of significance to their triumph.
