As the college season rolls into Week 11, the fans are gearing up for a can’t-blink-for-a-second SEC showdown.

Prediction: Georgia Bulldogs primed to stay tough

What’s your perspective on:

Can Ole Miss prove they belong in the playoff talk by toppling the mighty Georgia Bulldogs?

Have an interesting take?

If there is any team in college football who are untouchable, then it’s Georgia Bulldogs. Yes, they lost to Bama earlier this season; they may have some flaws here and there, but they are the most complete football team in CFB. They are slight favorites in this game. The Ole Miss Rebels are a low-key favorite based on some computer module predictions. The Ole Miss offense always balled out this season.

The Rebels QB Jaxson Dart is playing phenomenally well, but can’t really say the same for Georgia QB Carson Beck; he is currently going through an ‘interceptions’ crisis. But really, this matchup is less about the QBs and more about Lane Kiffin vs. Kirby Smart. It’s Smart’s defense clashing with Kiffin’s offense—Alabama’s ex-DC going head-to-head with Alabama’s ex-OC.

Now for Ole Miss to win this game, they need to play the same offense, which could be a little difficult against a defense team like the Georgia Bulldogs. Currently, the game is 60-40 favoring Bulldogs. Well, this game has all the makings of a classic SEC showdown. Georgia almost secured the playoff, while Ole Miss is in dire need of a win to secure the playoff picture. With so much on the line for both teams, there’s no doubt this game will be one of the most exciting matchups of the season.
