The beauty of the SteadyPicks System we have created here, is that we are able to take all opinions and emotions out, and strictly pick based on data. It’s hard for people to bet against Georgia. The team is a powerhouse with 5 star recruit freaks all over the field (minus their QB). It’s important to acknowledge that Ohio State is one of the few programs in the nation who matches the high level recruits that Georgia brings in. Since 2020, Ohio State has had a top 5 recruiting class in the nation each year. In 2021, Ohio State landed 7 total 5 star recruits, Georgia landed 4 to put that into perspective. So all things considered, the talent gap in this game is slim. Digging into these teams metrics, both defenses are elite, but Ohio State actually has the higher graded pass rush by a decent margin. PFF has Ohio State’s defense ranked 3rd overall, with Georgia ranking 15th. Football Outsiders has Georgia’s defense ranked 1st, and Ohio State ranked 8th. Those are two highly respected data resources, and if you average them, you’ll find the defenses rank neck and neck. Offensively, these teams also rank very close. Both offenses are elite units. Ohio State has a big time playmaking QB in CJ Stroud, who is expected to be a top 10 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. Georgia has an experienced former walk on QB in Stetson Bennett. Both QB's are very different in how they impact the game, but both are effective. Despite a lot of public Georgia money coming in, this line has moved toward Ohio State since it opened. Over the last 48 hours, we’ve seen this line drop to 5.5 at some books. We like the value getting +6.5 here, our bet is 1 unit.
