Mac's CFB Week 5 Pick: Georgia Bulldogs roll through Alabama Crimson Tide

Roll Dawgs Roll!

The Georgia Bulldogs (3-0) head to Tuscaloosa this weekend for their Week 5 matchup against the Alabama Crimson Tide (3-0).

The No. 2 Bulldogs are just 2-point favorites over No. 4 Alabama with the over/under set at 48.5 points.

It's the first time in 17 years that the Crimson Tide are underdogs on their home turf. It's also the first game where head coach Kirby Smart won't be facing legendary Bama coach Nick Saban.

A to Z Sports' four-legged college football expert, "Mac," is 2-1 on Bulldogs picks. However, he should be 3-0 with his picks but went with the Dawgs to cover a 24.5-point spread against Kentucky, which they couldn't do.

This week, Mac has Georgia rolling through Alabama.

I couldn't agree more with that pick.

Mac's CFB Week 5 Pick: Dawgs roll through Alabama

The Bulldogs meant business this week at practice and turned up the volume to prepare for a very loud crowd at Bryant-Denny Stadium, playing "Sweet Home Alabama" at one point.

Georgia can pull off this win if they hone in on their run game that stars Trevor Etienne because Alabama's defense has struggled in that area, allowing 132 rushing yards per game. The Bulldogs also have an edge with quarterback Carson Beck, who has been using his legs more, to help pick up even more yards on the ground.

Defensively, the Bulldogs are simply better even if they are banged up. The Bulldogs have not allowed a touchdown yet while Alabama's offensive line has allowed six sacks this season and committed several penalties.

Georgia at Alabama will kick off at 7:30 ET from Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa on Saturday. You can catch the game on ABC or ESPN+.
