ATHENS — The lines aren’t out for the season, but it seems a good bet Georgia football will be favored in every regular-season game.

There has been some projections of a 10.5-game over/under for the Bulldogs regular-season win total. A way-to-early prediction on UGA would be to take the “over.”

The Bulldogs’ offense is loaded, even with the recent loss of go-to receiver George Pickens, who is out indefinitely after suffering a torn ACL last week.

Georgia’s biggest challenge comes in its Sept. 4 opening game with Clemson in Charlotte, N.C., in what figures to be a battle of Top 5 teams.
