Georgia at Texas odds: Early point spread released, How to Watch

Week 7 of the college football season is one of the most highly anticipated weekend of the entire season. But Week 8 features a game that’s been on the front of fan’s minds all offseason, as Georgia takes a visit down to Austin to take on the Texas Longhorns next Saturday.
The Bulldogs will represent the biggest test of the season for top-ranked Texas as new members of the SEC. And despite the game being a week away, FanDuel Sportsbook has released an early point spread for the marquee matchup between the two powerhouse programs.
FanDuel has Texas listed as 2.5-point home favorites heading into their matchup against the Bulldogs on October 19, with the point total sitting at an over-under of 54.5 points. Lines that could definitely change based on the performance of both teams this weekend as Georgia hosts Mississippi State in Athens and Texas takes on rival Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry at the Cotton Bowl. Both respectively double-digit favorites in those games.
Texas is notably 4-1 against the spread this season while Georgia sits at an opposing 1-4 against the spread in their five games. But getting eyes on next Saturday’s action is just as important as the betting odds, check out how to make sure you don’t miss a second of the action below.

Texas and Georgia have only faced off five times in the long, storied history of both programs. With Texas holding a 4-1 advantage in the series following their 28-21 win over Georgia during the 2018 season in the Sugar Bowl.
Both programs have come a long way since that last meeting and will get used to facing off a lot more now that Texas has joined the SEC. As Kirby Smart has since led the Bulldogs to two national championship wins in the last three seasons and Steve Sarkisian led Texas to their first College Football Playoff appearance last season and the program’s best record since 2009. Squaring off next weekend for the first time both as members of the SEC in a high-stakes matchup between two of the top teams in country.
