As we wrote about Friday, we’re all in on Tennessee football upsetting the Georgia Bulldogs. That means them covering the spread, which is now at Georgia -9 on WynnBET and Georgia -9.5 on FanDuel, but we also shockingly have the game hitting the under, which is at 65 on WynnBET and 65.5 on FanDuel.

What about the bets within the game in Athens, Ga., though? Well, even if you’re betting on the Dawgs for this matchup, the Vols have the safest prop bets in this one. They are more predictable with their offensive weapons, and they try to run so many possessions that we know who’s going to step up.

Because of that, as we get set to discuss where to place your bets within the game between the hedges at Sanford Stadium, most of that is going to be heavy on individuals playing for Rocky Top. Here are the five best prop best for Tennessee football’s visit to the Georgia Bulldogs Saturday.

These will be the best gambling moves for the Tennessee football Volunteers at the Dawgs Saturday.

5. Cedric Tillman over 61.5 receiving yards (-114 on FanDuel)

Game odds refresh periodically and are subject to change

If Cedric Tillman hadn’t been hurt the past few weeks, the bet would make more sense with him at 100 receiving yards. This is the game laid out perfectly for him to break out. All the talk has been about Jalin Hyatt, and for good reason, but given Georgia’s personnel, Tillman is the best bet in this game, and his totals are lower.

UGA has struggled specifically with elite wideouts. Two receivers have gone for over 100 yards against them on the year, and both are 6’3″. Well, Tillman is a wideout. The only question is if he is ready to step up and be the No. 1 wideout again given his recent injuries. The bet here, though, is that he shook off the rust last week.

Bru McCoy is your guy if you don’t think Tillman will be full-go. McCoy’s over/under is set at 47.5, and he was Tennessee football’s No. 1 wideout last week. However, less attention will likely be paid to Tillman since he’s been quiet in recent weeks, so this is where he breaks out.
