Georgia vs. Alabama betting, predictions, odds, picks, lines - ESPN

In a tightly-contested SEC conference, the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs and No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide face in what could be one of the biggest regular-season games of the 2024 college football season. With both teams looking to gain a signature win on their schedule, this year's Georgia-Alabama game, a rematch of last year's SEC Championship game, is likely to hold significant College Football Playoff and National Championship implications. The Bulldogs head to Tuscaloosa on Saturday as a slight one-point favorite over the Crimson Tide. The line opened at three early in the week but has ticked down each day and could be a pick' em before kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC/ESPN+.

For Alabama, the matchup marks perhaps the first true test for new coach Kalen Deboer. If the current line holds, the Crimson Tide will be a home underdog for the first time since 2007, Nick Saban's first season. They have a Heisman candidate at quarterback in Jalen Milroe (+750 to win at ESPN BET) and plenty of weapons around him.

Meanwhile, Kirby Smart's team has a potential No. 1 overall pick under center in Carson Beck. While Georgia's previous matchup, a close 13-12 win over a stout Kentucky Wildcats team, might have been unexpected, the Bulldogs will be more than game for some revenge against the heated SEC foe.

Here is what you need to know to bet on this top-five ranked clash on Saturday night.
