It wasn’t easy, but Alabama did cover as a 6.5-point road favorite against Georgia in the most recent meeting with the game landing under the total. The last time Georgia won at Alabama was in 2017.
The Pomeroy basketball database has Alabama ranked second in offensive efficiency and first in offensive rating. Georgia is 19th in defensive efficiency.
After back-to-back 100-point outings, Alabama has 80 and 88 points in its last two games. Look for the Crimson Tide to get it going offensively when making Georgia v Alabama picks.
Freshman forward Darrion Reid returned in Wednesday’s win over Mississippi State after missing the previous four games. Senior guard Houston Mallette could be close to returning for Alabama.

2. Alabama (-11.5) to Cover at Home
Georgia has done well when facing ranked teams at home. The Bulldogs upset Kentucky and then beat a ranked Oklahoma team the next time out. Georgia threw a scare into top-ranked Auburn before losing 70-68.
It has been a different story on the road for the Bulldogs. They lost by 12 at Ole Miss, by 18 at Tennessee and then trailed by as many as 30 points in a recent loss to Florida, per Georgia vs Alabama stats.
Alabama is 10-1 outright this season when favored by at least 10 points. However, the Crimson Tide failed to cover in five of those matchups.
Georgia has won only two of its eight games this season as the betting underdog and is 3-5 ATS in those games.
We’d feel a little better about this online bet if the line moved in Georgia’s favor just a tad, but we’ll still take Alabama to cover as the home favorite.
3. Bet Alabama (+350) to Win the SEC Title
It was business as usual for Alabama. After All-American guard Mark Sears was benched for the entire second half against LSU and starting post player Clifford Omoruyi also had a seat on the bench after they both started against Mississippi State.
Sears had 17 points, six rebounds and nine assists in the road victory while playing 35 minutes. He figures to be a popular option in the college basketball player props.

Omoruyi finished with six points and seven rebounds. Sears and Omoruyi are two of the reasons why Alabama is the No. 2 pick to win the SEC title in NCAA basketball futures odds.
