One of the most bet on games early in the week, the Georgia Bulldogs vs. Arizona State Sun Devils odds opened at Georgia -6 ½ as the away favorite and the line has since settled in at -7 across the board.
One thing we will be looking at here: The oppressive heat.
Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford understands how to win games in oppressive heat.
A third-year starter with a 20-4 career record for the No. 3 Bulldogs, Stafford learned how to run an offense on the baking suburban football fields of Dallas.
And after enduring conditions he considers the hottest of his career in last week's narrow win at South Carolina, Stafford isn't so much concerned about Georgia's visit to Arizona State on Saturday.
"I've never really cramped like that in a game or in my life," Stafford said this week. "I felt like I just couldn't stop sweating. I couldn't put enough (fluids) in me to replenish what was going out. I don't think it could get too much worse for me."
Gambling911.com believes the line in this game should be Georgia Bulldogs -9 and the odds makers overall are relatively close in their assessment of this line, off by a mere 2 points, which we think will allow for a Georgia cover. To reinforce this point, Georgia has won 9 of their last 10 games by a score of 7 or more.
93 percent of the betting public was on the Bulldogs at -7.
