Auburn Tigers
Auburn Tigers Saturday afternoon the 10th ranked Georgia Bulldogs travel to Auburn to take on the Tigers. Odds makers are calling the Bulldogs road favorites as they get set to take on SEC rival Auburn. NCAA football betting lines have Georgia at -10 with the total sitting at 47.5.

Georgia and Auburn both figured to be challenging for a national title with pre-season top 10 ranking, but after a season full of disappointment, they both failed to meet expectations.

At 8-2 overall and 5-2 in the SEC, Georgia enters this weekend ranked 10th in the BCS standings, but is likely on the outside looking in for a BCS bowl berth with Alabama and Florida ahead of them. They would need serious help to get in.

A week ago against Kentucky the Bulldogs needed an 11 yard touchdown pass by quarterback Matthew Stafford with less than 2 minutes remaining to avoid an upset loss. Stafford threw for a career-high 376 yards and three scores in the 42-38 victory.

"They
are not always going to be pretty," said Stafford. "They're not always going to be good."

Auburn comes in at 5-5 and 2-4 in the conference. The Tigers will be playing for their bowl eligibility as they need an upset against Georgia this week or on the road against no. 1 Alabama to get into a bowl game.

It has been speculated that becoming bowl eligible might be the only way to save head coach Tommy Tuberville's job.

"This one and the next one for us are huge," Tuberville said. "You can put all the rest of them together and they don't match the intensity of these two when it comes to the players getting into the game."

Auburn has lost four out of their last five and it will be very difficult to right the ship against the opponents they have left. However, stranger things have happened. Look for Auburn to play well at home in what might be Tuberville's last home game with the Tigers. Georgia probably gets the victory but Auburn will keep it close. Take the Tigers plus the 10 points at home.
