Texas vs Georgia Pick, Betting Analysis
We move to the nightcap, where it's only right that we get Round 2 between Texas and Georgia. The Bulldogs capitalized on some rare defensive miscues from the Longhorns to pull away in a hurry on Saturday.
That, combined with Joey Volchko pitching the game of his college career, has made the Bulldogs the favorites in this matchup after Texas closed around -130 in the first meeting.
However, I have futures tickets on both teams from the preseason, so I have neither a Dawg nor a Longhorn in this fight, but the weather conditions for this matchup have created value on the total.
The wind will still be blowing out during this game, but it will calm down considerably. That takes away a big boost from two lineups that frankly don't even need it.
Historically, Charles Schwab Field has been an excellent pitchers' park, averaging around 2.5 fewer runs per game. In addition to the wind, the shadows in the early innings played a big role in Georgia's game last night, as its lineup started slowly against Xander Mercurius.
Luke Harrison and Dylan Vigue are more than capable starters, and each is backed up by solid bullpens that are well rested. All signs point to a lower-scoring battle between two of the nation's best here.
Pick: Under 13.5 (Play to 12.5)
