Georgia is undefeated and a 24.5-point favorite against Vanderbilt on Saturday, after covering the spread in each of its first four weeks. Vanderbilt freshman quarterback Jared Curtis switched his commitment from Georgia to the Commodores the day before signing day.
The writer expects Curtis’s recruiting decision to draw attention during the game. Coaches who have faced the freshman have described him as a special talent, while the writer predicts Kirby Smart may call the decision a non-issue.
Georgia’s win over Oklahoma included what the writer called a third-quarter slump, perhaps the Bulldogs’ worst play of the season. Smart said after the game that great teams do not have performance gaps; the writer said his challenge is getting Georgia to play all four quarters.
