The second-ranked Georgia Bulldogs will look to remain unbeaten and cover the big spread when they take on the Vanderbilt Commodores in their Week 6 SEC clash. Can desperate Vandy get the outright win and the national championship runner-ups or will they at least be able to cover the spread as near, four-touchdown road dogs?
Let’s find out right now college football betting buffs!
Why should you bet on the Dawgs in this Week 6 SEC showdown? Because they’re playing at home and better than Vanderbilt in all three phases of the game. There are a few reasons why Georgia looks like an attractive wager in this matchup. First, the Bulldogs are playing at home. Georgia is also superior to Vanderbilt on both sides of the ball and they’re likely to be locked in to avoid an upset and keep their championship hopes fully intact. Georgia beat Tennessee senseless in their 28-12 win last weekend despite failing to cover the chalk as a 30.5-point home favorite. For the season, sophomore quarterback Jake Fromm is completing a blistering 72.5 percent of his passes with nine touchdowns and two interceptions. Georgia is averaging 43.2 points per game while limiting the opposition to just 13.0 points per game defensively.

Why Bet On The Vanderbilt Commodores?

The best reason to best on Vanderbilt is that they are getting a whopping 26.5 points in this matchup. The Commodores beat FCS Tennessee State 31-27 last weekend, but they never came close to covering the spread as 28.5-point home favorites.
