00:00It is one versus five, number one, Texas, number five, Georgia, under the lights in Austin on Saturday night, the Longhorns playing host to the Bulldogs. The first time Texas has hosted a top five opponent DRS in nearly 20 years since 2006. When the line opened for this game in the summer months, Texas was a
00:29slight and I mean very slight home favorite in this potential matchup. Game of the year three billing is certainly justified against UGA. The line as it opened early this week for week eight, three and a half. It is being added on for Steve Sarkeesian's Longhorns, Texas, a four and a half point home favorite. DRS, the last time that Georgia was booked as an underdog way back at the start of the 2021
00:59season and another top five tilt to begin against Clemson. UGA won that game outright 10 to three. We have not seen the dogs as a dog in a very long time. Do you agree with a four and a half point spread in favor of UT?
01:15I do. And the line actually opened up at two and a half in is now, you know, up to that four and a half and even five ranges of some outlets out there. I don't think it's going to continue to get much, much higher than that because there will be a buyback on Georgia. They're a pretty good football team. But when I'm looking at Texas, you watch that game against OU last week, 34 to three final. If Quinn Ewers was the Quinn Ewers that started the season not injured, that game might have been 54 to three. And it would have been over much quicker because there were a lot of throws to be made in the first quarter and first half that he did not make. But if you're looking for Texas,
01:45you see it's like, hey, Sarkisian's offense is completely rolling. They're fantastic on offense. But look at the defense starting with the Michigan game, 12 points, UTSA, seven points, ULM, three points, Mississippi State, who is a SEC team, 13 points, OU, three points here. So as much as I want to focus on the offense for Texas, that defense was an absolutely sensational. Now, we understand Georgia is a quite good defensive football team as well, fell asleep a little bit in the first half against Alabama, but the rest of their games, lower scoring as well. For me, I think Texas is better. If I think they are
02:15better, they'll be able to cover the four and a half, but that's 56 and a half. I understand how good these offenses can be. I'm looking towards the under on that total. I am two really good defenses in a high stakes environment game. I lean towards the under. I don't know if we get 60 points in this one.
