BetMGM has posted new spreads on a bunch of college football games. Georgia has five games among those:
Sept. 7: Georgia 17.5 over Virginia (Atlanta)
Sept. 19 Alabama 7.5 over Georgia (Tuscaloosa)
Oct. 10 Georgia 7.5 over Auburn (Athens)
Oct. 31 Georgia 3.5 over Florida (Jacksonville)
Nov. 7 Georgia 12.5 over South Carolina (Columbia, S.C.)
Nov. 28 Georgia 24.5 over Georgia Tech (Athens)
The general impression there is that the spreads appear to be tightening. Well, except for the game in Tuscaloosa.
Some other games of note, at least to my puzzled mind:
Clemson plays at Georgia Tech and is a 23.5-point favorite, which is fairly close to the spread in the Georgia game. Similarly, Virginia travels to Clemson, which is favored by 26.5; not really sure how that explains the spread in the Georgia-Virginia game. Even weirder, South Carolina is a 23.5-point underdog at Clemson.
The World’s Greatest Meteor Game lands in Knoxville this year. Florida is a 6.5-point favorite. Alabama also travels to Tennessee and the Tide is favored by 14.5.
LSU travels to Florida, where it is a 2.5-point underdog. LSU is also a 2.5-point underdog at home when it faces Alabama.
Mississippi hosts the Egg Bowl; it is favored by 3.5 points. The Iron Bowl is in Tuscaloosa. ‘Bama is a 13.5-point favorite.
