Courtesy goldsheet.com, last seven years of betting lines:
2007 Georgia was a 3-point fav. UGA won by 14.
2008 Georgia was an 8 point fav. TECH won by 3.
2009 Georgia Tech was an 8 point fav. UGA won by 6.
2010 Georgia was a 13-point fav. UGA won by 8.
2011 Georgia was a 5-point fav. UGA won by 14.
2012 Georgia was a 13.5 point fav. UGA won by 32.
2013 Georgia was a 3-point fav. UGA won by 7 (OT)
UGA 5-2 vs. line for last seven years.
Counting an OT win as covering the spread is kinda dumb, especially if you are using it to make the point that UGA exceeded expectations. In reality UGA is 4-3 which is basically a wash.
I don't get the spread and I don't get you ööögots saying its "about right". Sure , Georgie should be favored, but we're a 9-2 Tech team who just demolished a (still) ranked opponent, walking into our biggest game with the most we've ever had to play for
Yeah, sure, 14.5
Missouri - Arkansas early line finally posted: PK
Man I hope Missouri wins that game.
OT counts for bets, lines are not just for regular time.
It's 5-2, because we couldn't force a FG in OT or stop them in 4th Q...
So how much are you wagering on GT +14.5?

I hate UGA, but I like money way more.
I'd hit the Arkansas side hard, that's an awful line.

This line looks about right to me. This is not a good matchup for us. We're going to have to play perfect on offense. No turnovers. I don't see how we stop their running game. We're going to have to get a few turnovers and turn them into TD's.
