Ole Miss vs. Georgia prediction
Expect a lower-scoring game that the regular season contest. It would be hard to repeat that game that featured 78 total points and just two combined punts.
It doesn’t seem like a matchup between top-five SEC defenses, but it is. Georgia has allowed 15.9 points per game (No. 2 in the SEC) and Ole Miss has given up 19.3 (No. 5 in the SEC).
The Bulldogs have allowed 10 points or less in each of their past four games, including a 28-7 win vs. Alabama in the SEC Championship. Ole Miss’ defense has high-end talent but less consistency.
Ole Miss vs. Georgia score prediction
Georgia 30, Ole Miss 21: Georgia already beat Ole Miss once, and it’s playing its best football of the season.
When does Ole Miss play Georgia in College Football Playoff?
The Rebels will face the Bulldogs on Jan. 1 at Ceasers Superdome in New Orleans (7 p.m., ESPN).
