The Georgia Bulldogs have opened as the road favorite heading into their matchup against Tennessee.

Georgia picked up its second win of the season on Saturday as they defeated Austin Peay by a final score of 28-6. They now head into week three and the start of conference play. The Bulldogs will travel to Knoxville to take on the Tennessee Volunteers.

To make the matchup even bigger, ESPN College Gameday announced they will be coming to Knoxville for the game. Both teams are ranked inside of the top 25.

Tennessee has looked good with their new starting quarterback Joey Aguilar as they put up over 70 points against East Tennessee Stat, but the Bulldogs have handled Josh Heupel's offense better than anyone and that's likely what Vegas is banking on.

The Georgia Bulldogs have opened up as a 6.5-point favorite over the Volunteers, according to Fan Duel. The over/under has been set at 50.5 points.

Since Kirby Smart has taken over at Georgia in 2016, the Volunteers have only beaten him once and it was during his first season. Outside of that, Smart has had Tennessee's number and has certainly figured something out when it comes to defending Heupel's offense, which gives a lot of teams problems.

It is worth noting that this will be Georgia's first road game of the season and Gunner Stockton's first road start as the team's starting quarterback. There are a lot of big headlines going into this one and both fan bases will be eager to see how their team looks against an SEC opponent.
