An updated look at the betting odds for Georgia's matchup against Tennessee.

Perhaps the biggest matchup of the weekend will take place on Saturday in Knoxville, Tennessee as the Georgia Bulldogs will face off against 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. Georgia is ranked No. 6 and Tennessee is ranked No. 15 in the latest AP poll.

Tennessee has looked good with their new starting quarterback, Joey Aguilar, as they put up over 70 points against East Tennessee State, but the Bulldogs have handled Josh Heupel's offense better than anyone and that's likely what Vegas is banking on. However, there has already been movement in the spread since Sunday.

The Georgia Bulldogs are now a 4.5-point favorite over the Volunteers, according to Fan Duel. The over/under has been set at 49.5 points. The line initially opened with Georgia being a 7.5-point favorite over the Volunteers and came down all the way to 3.5. Now it is back up to 4.5 in favor of the Bulldogs.

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.
