The Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders (1 - 1) are on the road to take on the hometown #3 Georgia Bulldogs (2 -) in what should be one of the potentially largest blowouts of the slate.

Georgia will be massively favored in this game while Middle Tennessee will be one of the biggest underdogs on the entire slate. Georgia has been flawless this season while Middle Tennessee has shown flashes, but it'll take more than flashes to unseat Georgia's perfect record.

Georgia will be taking the field with one of the best defenses in the entire NCAA. Georgia is holding opponents to just 9 PPG on defense so far this season and we could see similar #s against Middle Tennessee. On offense, Georgia is scoring 43 PPG while racking up nearly 500 total yards of offense per game. Middle Tennessee will have to showcase their ability to play serious defense for a full game in order to keep up with Georgia.

Middle Tennessee's lack of a ground game will be a huge problem for the Blue Raiders and that could end up being the difference in this matchup.
