Bulldogs vs. Volunteers player prop bets to consider
Among the player props we evaluate here:
- Carson Beck O/U passing touchdowns
- Jaylen Wright O/U rushing yards
- Ladd McConkey O/U receiving yards
Carson Beck UNDER passing touchdowns prop
Georgia QB Carson Beck has been excellent in his first season as a starter. He's completed 72.2% of throws while averaging 9.4 yards an attempt. The Athletic's NFL Draft Analyst Dane Brugler recently said that Beck could be the QB3 in the 2024 draft.
Beck's thrown 18 touchdowns to only five interceptions. He'll likely get star tight end Brock Bowers back after the playmaker missed the last month with an ankle injury. But even with the extra help, Beck's touchdown line has been aggressively set.
Beck hasn't thrown more than two touchdowns since Oct. 7 against Kentucky. His only other game with over 2.5 TDs was when he tossed three against lowly UAB. As well as Beck has played, Georgia prioritizes the run game to convert scoring opportunities.

Jaylen Wright OVER rushing yards prop
There aren't many playmakers as explosive as Volunteers RB Jaylen Wright. The junior averages 7.2 yards per carry this season, totaling 848. He has only three touchdowns, meaning his yards are the more enticing play. Georgia, which ranks 39th in the nation in rushing yards allowed per carry, has been far from the dominant defense of recent years.
The red flag for Wright is that Tennessee sometimes forgets to run the ball. He tallied only 11 carries against Alabama and seven versus Missouri. Both games were losses, and Wright had only 44 yards between the matchups.
Because Tennessee absolutely needs Wright to be effective to win, and Georgia has some vulnerability against a good back, we like the OVER.
Ladd McConkey OVER receiving yards prop
Bowers' return will grab the headlines, but Ladd McConkey may benefit as much as anyone else from Bowers' presence. While Bowers may be on a pitch count after ankle surgery, McConkey has come into his own over the last month. He's totaled at least 81 yards in his last three games.
The junior is facing a young secondary that has struggled to get off the field. Tennessee ranks 50th in passing yards allowed and 130th in time on the field. McConkey offers a blend of explosiveness and reliability and will torture Tennessee's defense when Georgia needs him the most.
