After winning back-to-back national championships, are the Georgia Bulldogs loaded for a 3-peat?

That’s a tall order for a team that just sent 10 players to the pros in the recent 2023 NFL Draft, after sending a record-setting 15 the season prior.

However, the college football win totals odds are setting the bar high for the Bulldogs, the highest in the NCAA.

2023 Georgia Regular Season Win Total Odds

Projected Regular Season Wins Over Odds Under Odds
11.5 +116 -142

Georgia is being given +116 odds to go over 11.5 wins. For a 12-game regular season, you’d be betting on UGA pulling off a second straight perfect regular season.

Oddly enough, they’re yet to be given odds for having a perfect season in 2023.

When you look at the schedule, though, perhaps it doesn’t seem that far-fetched. Let’s break down Georgia’s upcoming season.

Bulldogs Key Players

On offense, Georgia will have to replace Heisman candidate Stetson Bennett, who went to the Rams. That’s 4,127 yards, a 68.3% completion percentage and 27 TD passes against seven picks out the door, as well as 10 rushing touchdowns.

Someone is going to have to take the mantle, and  there’s still a race between Carson Beck, Brock Vandagriff and Gunner Stockton. They’ll have a veteran group of running backs to help ease the transition, with seniors Kendall Minton (6.96 YPC, 592 yds, 8 TD) and Daijun Edwards (5.49 YPC, 769 yds, 7 TD) leading the way.

They’ll also have a premier receiving group, led by 1,000+ yard receivers Ladd McConkey and Dominic Lovett, while Rara Thomas tied McConkey with a team-best 12 TD catches.

Losing Broderick Jones and Warren McClendon, the team’s starting tackles might be a death blow to some schools, but not Georgia, who enters the season graded the second-best O-line in the nation. Look for Earnest Greene and Amarius Mims to seamlessly pick up where this line left off.

While two of their best defenders — DT Jalen Carter and LB Nolan Smith — were scooped up in the NFL’s first round, and DB Kelee Ringo chosen in the third, all by the Philadelphia Eagles, Georgia returns a whopping 75% of their defense for 2023.

That unit wasn’t all-world like the 2021 squad, but they did allow just 14.2 points per game, 77.1 yards rushing, while limiting teams to 26% on third down.

As the early college football betting lines show, Tennessee is the only opponent given much hope of hanging with the 2-time champs.

Georgia 2023 Win Total Prediction

Even if the Bulldogs aren’t the world-beaters they have been the previous two seasons, they might not have to be considering the schedule they’ve been gifted for 2023.

While an upset is always a possibility, there are few teams outside of Kentucky or Florida that pose much of a threat. South Carolina could be a sneaky-strong opponent in Week 3 in the midst of that soft opening schedule. The Gamecocks finished 8-5 a season ago, but one of those was a 48-7 whipping at the hands of these Bulldogs.

Auburn is coming off back-to-back losing seasons, and have a new head coach, and were dusted 42-10 in this matchup a year ago.

In fact, just six of Georgia’s 12 opponents this year were .500 or better a season ago.

While betting on perfection isn’t always the best bet, the plus odds are worth a wager on this football powerhouse.

Pick: Georgia OVER 11.5 Wins (+116)
