Georgia Tech’s $10 million move off campus reframes the rivalry, with models making No. 4 Georgia a double-digit favorite.

Overview

  • Kickoff is set for Friday at 3:30 p.m. ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, with national TV coverage on ABC and streaming on Fubo.
  • Georgia enters 10-1 as the No. 4 team in the country, while Georgia Tech is 9-2 and ranked in the top 25 across major polls.
  • BetMGM lists Georgia as roughly a 13-point favorite, and ESPN’s predictor gives the Bulldogs about an 87% chance to win.
