We’ll start with Tennessee running back Jabari Small. The junior has a rushing yards over/under of 57.5, which is 17 yards more than Georgia’s Kenny McIntosh. Small has cleared this number five times in eight games, but there’s plenty of reasons to fade him in this spot with Tennessee coming in as 8.5-point underdogs.
TEN vs UGA Prop #1: Jabari Small Under 57.5 Rushing Yards
Let’s start with Small’s efficiency, or lack thereof. He averages just 4.3 yards per carry, and has been held under 4.0 yards a pop in back-to-back outings. Last week against Kentucky, he produced just 3.7 yards per carry, but was fortunate to see a ton of volume which propelled him to 78 rushing yards.
That was in a game where the Volunteers absolutely dominated the scoreboard and time of possession, something that won’t happen versus the Bulldogs.
Also working against Small is the fact that the man he shares the backfield with is a flat out more explosive player. Jaylen Wright averages 5.2 yards per carry, and shredded the same Wildcats defense Small struggled against for 10.4 yards per rush.
Tennessee PFF Grades vs Kentucky
OFF
1. Darnell Wright (91.2)
2. Hendon Hooker (90.2)
3. Jaylen Wright (85.9)
4. Jeremiah Crawford (75.2)
5. Cooper Mays (71.2)DEF
1. Jaylen McCollough (74.9)
2. Omari Thomas (72.7)
3. Doneiko Slaughter (71.0)
4. Juwan Mitchell (69.3)— James Foster (@NoFlagsFilm) October 30, 2022
Finally, the matchup stinks. Georgia ranks eighth in the nation in opponent rushing yards per game, and yield just 3.4 yards per carry. They’re fresh off holding Florida to 2.9 yards per rush attempt, and Vanderbilt to 2.0 yards per carry.
Pick: Jabari Small Under 57.5 Rushing Yards (-114), 1 unit
TEN vs UGA Prop #2: Stetson Bennett Under 293.5 Passing Yards
Fun fact: Stetson Bennett is older than Jalen Hurts, Justin Herbert and Tua Tagovailoa. The 25-year-old is having a nice season, but his passing prop is way too high for this matchup.
Expecting Bennett to throw for just under 300 yards is a bet on the Bulldogs needing to put up a massive score to beat the Volunteers. I don’t see it. This Georgia defense is going to neutralize Hendon Hooker and Co., and when the Bulldogs have the ball they’re going to control the clock and run the ball.
Stetson Bennett vs. Hendon Hooker has to be the oldest quarterback matchup in college football history. They average 24.91 years of age.

Bennett has failed to clear 293.5 passing yards in two of his past three outings, and four times overall in 2022. On each of those four occasions he put up less than 34 pass attempts, and we shouldn’t expect enormous volume from him as such a big favorite.
Pick: Stetson Bennett Under 293.5 Passing Yards (-114), 1 unit

Tennessee vs Georgia Prop #3: Jalin Hyatt Anytime TD
Although not quite as dominant as last season, this Georgia defense is still top-notch. If you were to poke a hole in them, however, it’s that they don’t get nearly as much pressure on the quarterback as you’d expect.
The Bulldogs rank 119th in sack percentage and have only brought down the quarterback 10 times this season. The lack of serious pressure should afford Hooker time to throw, and when he does, Jalin Hyatt will be his target of choice.

Hyatt leads the nation with 14 touchdowns, and has caught 11 TD in his past four games. No, that is not a typo. He scored twice last week against Kentucky, five times three games ago against #6 Alabama, and twice more versus #10 LSU at the start of October.
Sure, the matchup is tough versus Georgia’s top-tier pass defense, but -145 odds to score are just too short given the ceiling Hyatt’s already flashed in difficult matchups this season.
Pick: Jalin Hyatt Anytime TD (-145), 1 unit
