Auburn vs. Georgia Prediction, Odds, Spread and Over/Under for College Football Week 6
By Reed Wallach
Georgia had a scare on the road last week, needing a late touchdown to avoid a monumental upset to Missouri. Now, they turn their attention to a team that could be on the verge of firing their head coach.
Auburn's Bryan Harsin has been on the hot seat all season, and his day of reckoning could be coming after the team's failure to execute down the stretch cost them a home win against LSU last week. Now, they head to Athens to face one of the best team in the country catching more than four touchdowns.
Can Auburn outperform this expectation and stay within in this massive number, or will Georgia return to form on Saturday?

Auburn vs. Georgia Prediction and Pick
Auburn was unlucky to lose at home to LSU last week, 21-17. The Tigers outgained LSU on a yards per play basis 6.3-3.6 and shut down the visitors passing game completely allowing the combination of Jayden Daniels and Garrett Nussmeier to complete just 10-of-26 passes. However, four turnovers from Auburn cost them this one.
Now, the team's inability to move the ball through the air will lead to a blowout loss and the potential end of Harsin's tenure. Auburn is 116th in EPA/Play on passing plays and will be against the No. 1 pass D in the country in terms of success rate.
While Auburn's defense is middle of the pack, they won't be able to keep down the Georgia offense that is fifth in EPA/Play and No. 1 in success rate. Robby Ashford is likely taking snaps under center for Auburn again and is not a natural passer. When Auburn falls behind, Ashford will likely turn the ball over through the air trying to play catch up.
I'll lay the number with the Bulldogs.
