Expert analysis via FOX Sports Betting Analyst Geoff Schwartz:

"This game will be determined by coaching and quarterback play, as both teams have fantastic defenses, featuring the nation's top two defensive lines. Even though the injury bug hit Georgia hard during camp, it appears they will get most of those guys back in time for this game. The Bulldogs run a pro-style offense with QB JT Daniels, who did improve their offense last season when entered into the starting lineup. He should have a monster season, but it's tough to rely on an offense this weekend that will struggle to generate explosive plays.

"On the other side, Clemson is young at QB with D.J. Uiagalelei, who started two games last season as a true freshman. He’s a big kid but mobile and can make plays with his legs. He should be able to carry an offense against a top-tier defense. He’s also being guided by a coach who has won and covered 15 of 19 of Clemson’s high-leverage games, which include playoffs, bowls and ACC championship games, while Georgia has come up short in these moments over the years. Give me the Tigers."

PICK: Clemson (-3) to win by more than 3 points
