Georgia Opens as Surprising Road Underdog Against Clemson in Early Odds for Week 1

After a disappointing finish in 2020 (they still finished No. 7 in the rankings), the Georgia Bulldogs are primed for big season in 2021. JT Daniels emerged as a college football star at quarterback during the last half of the year while the Bulldogs are always loaded on defense.

The 2021 campaign kicks off with a blockbuster matchup against the powerhouse Clemson Tigers in Week 1. Certainly, this is the most hyped contest entering the new year.

Even with Clemson losing their own star quarterback Trevor Lawrence to the 2021 NFL Draft, the odds still side with the three-time national champion Tigers. According to FanDuel Sportsbook's college football odds, the Bulldogs enter this tough Week 1 road matchup as 3-point underdogs.

Clemson will ride on the back of Lawrence's successor, the talented DJ Uiagalelei in 2021. Meanwhile, Georgia has its eyes set on a national title. This Week 1 matchup will be a good test of Georgia's championship hopes versus the future of Clemson's next star quarterback.
