College Football Week 11 Odds, Preview & Pick: Auburn at Georgia

NCAAF News and Betting Previews| Xbet.ag
The Auburn Tigers have a chance to start turning the NCAAF Playoff on its head when they welcome the 9-0 and slight College Football Week 11 odds favorite Georgia Bulldogs to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday. Auburn sits at 7-2 but could cause chaos with wins over Georgia and Alabama. The Tigers come in riding a two-game winning streak, having knocked off Arkansas and Texas A&M in the last two weeks. Georgia is still working to shed their reputation as a perennial letdown in big games (as their #2 ranking in the coaches’ and AP polls shows), and they can make a big statement with a win at Auburn. Take a look at the latest NCAAF odds and our betting preview for this classic SEC tilt.

Why should you bet on the Bulldogs?

Georgia and Auburn do not face off each year because they are in different SEC divisions, but the Bulldogs have owned the rivalry lately, having won nine of the last 11 meetings. In 2013, Auburn did win 43-38 thanks to a touchdown pass that clanked off two different Georgia defensive backs before ending up in the hands of a wide receiver, but Georgia has dominated the rivalry. However, four of those nine wins have been within a margin of one possession, and the last two wins have been by a combined 13 points. Last year, Georgia controlled a defensive struggle, winning at home by the score of 13-7. Tailback Nick Chubb rumbled for 101 yards in that game, and he has been the anchor of the Bulldogs’ offense once again this year. If you like Georgia, you see their combination of a physical, bruising offense with a speedy and aggressive defense overcoming an Auburn team that boasts much the same strengths — and you think that Georgia has the mental strength to win in one of the SEC’s toughest environments.

Why should you put your money on the Tigers?

Auburn went to the air in their win over Texas A&M, and the approach paid off big-time. Ryan Davis caught seven balls for 80 yards and a touchdown, and Darius Slayton — the real deep threat — caught two passes for 99 yards and another touchdown. Davis has five games this season in which he has caught at least six balls. Quarterback Jarrett Stidham has been steady; he went 20 for 27 for 268 yards and three scores against the Aggies. All in all, the Auburn offense has put up 94 points in their last two games. But can the Auburn air attack stand up against that Georgia pass rush to defy the College Football Week 11 odds? Auburn is not the favorite at the College Football Week 11.   The Auburn defense does have some questions to answer. They have given up 93 points over their last four games, using their offensive firepower to win games. Their loss to LSU gave Georgia a blueprint to follow for victory — loading up the box and daring Stidham to beat them down the field while mounting a pass rush that kept Stidham from finding a comfort zone in the pocket. If Auburn wants to take the same steps that they took in 2010 and 2013 — beating Georgia and then Alabama en route to the SEC championship game — then they need to elevate their defense while finding ways to give Stidham time to throw the ball.

Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction

Frankly, I’m still a little suspicious of Georgia when it comes to big games, but their track record against Auburn and their track record in big games this year is most impressive, with wins over Notre Dame, Florida, and Tennessee showing the growth that they have gone through to stand as a true playoff contender. They will have a challenge in shutting down the Auburn offense, but I see the Bulldogs emerging to back the College Football Week 11 odds with a 31-27 win.
