What do you get when two SEC schools play each other in a divisional rivalry game? Some amazing football that’s what. These two schools are some of the most historic when it comes to college football and I can’t wait for them to go head-to-head. Auburn is coming off of a loss to Texas A&M which I think will have them fired up, while Georgia is looking to maintain the dominance they have set since the season started. This is honestly anyone’s game.
Auburn has looked pretty solid to start the season, last week was a tough loss, but there is no reason why this team can’t bounce back and go toe-to-toe with the best of the best in college football. While their quarterbacks haven’t been amazing those receivers have been impressive. Jay Fair has been an elite deep threat and reliable weapon for Payton Thorne with 184 yards and two receiving touchdowns already in this short season. Eugene Asante has also been as good as advertised with 28 tackles, two sacks, a deflected pass, and a fumble recovered for a touchdown. This team has all the pieces to beat the best of the best.
Now, there is a reason why the Georgia Bulldogs are the top-ranked team in football right now. They have looked pretty dominant so far this season. Carson Beck has thrown for 1184 yards and six touchdowns which is even more impressive when you realize five different receivers make up his six different touchdown passes. Carson seems to know how to read the field and go through his progression incredibly well, staying poised in the pocket. I’ll be the first to say that I’m definitely convinced of this kid’s talent no doubt about it. Tight-end Brock Bowers has been an amazing offensive piece for this team as well, and if he isn’t drafted up there next year in the NFL draft it’ll be a crime.
You can never tell how these SEC games are gonna go, so bet on either team.
