A Top-10 showdown in college football betting between SEC teams is set for Saturday night on ESPN as #3 Georgia hosts #8 Alabama on ESPN at 7:45pm EST. Georgia started the season at number one, is still unbeaten, but has dropped to #3 in the polls. Odds makers have Georgia -6.5 point favorites at home in college football odds against Alabama. The Bulldogs continue to play well including a very impressive 27-10 road win at Arizona State last week. Heisman Trophy candidate Knowshon Moreno ran for 149 yards and two touchdowns. "I think we made a good statement," said freshman receiver A.J. Green, "We're from the SEC, the South boys. Everybody thinks our conference is so hard, so we just came out here and proved a point." This week is an even bigger test for Georgia as a talented Alabama squad visits. "We are playing a great team - a top 10 team and one that is coached by one of the finest coaches in America," Georgia head coach Mark Richt said. "They have been tested, they just have whipped everybody so bad it didn't seem like they were." The Tide routed Arkansas last week 49-14 in a game that was never close. The Tide have a good running back of their own in Glen Coffee who is averaging over 8 yards per carry this season. "We have one of the best offensive lines in the country," said Coffee.
