It's looking like the mismatch of the season, at least insofar as Football Bowl Subdivision matchups go. The host Georgia Bulldogs (9-1, 7-1 SEC) are 44-point favorites over the Charlotte 49ers (1-9, 0-7 AAC) for a David-versus-Goliath contest between the hedges at Sanford Stadium, set to commence this Saturday at 12:45 p.m. EST.
There's no money line offered for what appears to be a surefire win for Georgia. This weekend's pairing is not the No. 4 Bulldogs' Homecoming event, although Charlotte fits the bill of a Homecoming cupcake in battle against the Top 25. Charlotte has played one ranked opponent all year, giving up eight touchdowns in a loss to USF. More discouragingly, the 49ers have been outscored 203-70 on five dates since then.
Georgia comes in off a superb 35-10 win over the previously No. 10 ranked Texas Longhorns. Texas quarterback Archie Manning received no help from a UT ground game held to 23 yards by linebacker Chris Cole and the Bulldogs' front seven. Senior wideout Noah Thomas scored twice in the victory.

Charlotte 49ers at Georgia Bulldogs Predictions and Picks
Charlotte head coach Tim Albin is trying to get signal-caller Grayson Loftis into a passing rhythm, yet the 49ers can't execute the plays when operating from behind the sticks as usual. Without a viable running game against Georgia's powerful front, Loftis will spend this Saturday tossing short, quick passes, attempting to produce first downs and keep opposing QB Gunner Stockton off the gridiron.
Those who pick Charlotte ATS may count on UGA's Senior Day to inspire a ton of senior backup minutes, thanks to HC Kirby Smart's sentimental staff. But reports out of Georgia indicate that the Bulldogs are all business. "Style points" could matter as UGA looks to hold on to at least a No. 4 ranking, according to Mike Griffith of Dawg Nation. "The Bulldogs (can enhance) their College Football Playoff resume."
Smart is likely to split his tactics by halves in Saturday's game, hurrying to compile 40+ points in the first half so that senior walk-ons can safely take the field by the fourth quarter. The best wager is a prop bet on Georgia shutting out Charlotte at halftime or on UGA holding Charlotte to no touchdowns in the contest.
