00:02 - Let's head on down to Peachtree Street.
00:05 We're gonna take it to Atlanta here,
00:07 Georgia versus Alabama, the SEC Championship game.
00:10 Both of these teams entering in SEC play undefeated.
00:15 So one of those zeros is going to go here in the SEC.
00:17 The question is, Alabama does have a loss.
00:20 If Alabama wins, do they walk into
00:22 the college football playoff?
00:23 And also at the same time,
00:24 do they knock Georgia out or vice versa?
00:27 What a football game here.
00:28 We've seen this line as high as six and a half this week
00:30 at the FanDuel Sportsbook, back down to five and a half,
00:32 a total of 54 and a half.
00:35 Absolutely sensational football game.
00:37 4 p.m. Eastern, Ben, from your perspective,
00:40 what are we seeing?
00:41 - I mean, a top 10 tilt in Atlanta
00:43 with an SEC Championship on the line.
00:47 It doesn't get better than this matchup
00:48 between Georgia and Alabama.
00:50 And in this matchup, three times in the last 10 years,
00:53 we have seen the Crimson Tide booked as an underdog.
00:57 They're the only three times Alabama has been a dog
01:00 in the last decade.
01:01 They have won two times outright,
01:03 did not cover in the other game.
01:05 That was in the National Championship back in 2021,
01:08 but Alabama blew the doors off Georgia,
01:10 41-24 in the SEC title game,
01:13 back during the 2021 college football season.
01:17 Donnie, often we have started the conversation
01:19 with Georgia the last three years,
01:21 including the last two where they won
01:22 a National Championship with how elite
01:25 the dogs defense was and still kind of is.
01:28 But the biggest difference for UGA this year,
01:31 they're not nearly as good up front.
01:33 They allow 117 rushing yards per game.
01:36 We would expect Jaylin Milrow,
01:38 Jason McClellan, Roydale Williams
01:40 to try to take advantage of that
01:42 for Alabama's rushing attack.
01:44 Three, or two times, excuse me,
01:45 in the last four games for Jaylin Milrow,
01:48 he has run for over 107 yards,
01:51 including 155 and four touchdowns against LSU.
01:55 220 and a half, the passing yards prop,
01:58 a number he has been over in two of the last three games.
02:01 But my favorite bet in this one, Donnie,
02:03 is Georgia's quarterback, Carson Beck.
02:06 Earlier in the week, his passing yards prop, 260 and a half.
02:09 That is now on the rise.
02:11 265 and a hook, a number he has been over
02:15 10 of the 12 games for the Bulldogs this year.
02:18 Alabama has played three other quarterbacks
02:21 that ranked in the top 45
02:23 in terms of passing yardage this year
02:25 in college football at the FBS level.
02:28 Jackson Dart and Ole Miss, he threw for 244.
02:31 In the victory over Tennessee, it was Joe Milton,
02:34 who I think is as good of a quarterback as Carson Beck.
02:37 He threw for 271, and most importantly, Donnie,
02:40 in the only loss this year for Alabama,
02:43 Quinn Ewers had close to 340 yards
02:45 against this Alabama secondary.
02:48 I think Carson Beck goes over 265 and a half.
02:51 That's my favorite bet for the SEC title game.
