Georgia vs. Florida State line, picks: Advanced college football computer model releases selections for 2023 Orange Bowl matchup
The No. 6 Georgia Bulldogs (12-1) seek their seventh consecutive victory in bowl games when they face the fifth-ranked Florida State Seminoles (13-0) in the 2023 Orange Bowl on Saturday. Georgia, which saw its SEC-record 29-game winning streak end with a 27-24 setback against Alabama in the SEC Championship Game on Dec. 2, hasn't lost a bowl game since falling to Texas 28-21 in the 2019 Sugar Bowl. Florida State defeated Louisville 16-6 in the ACC title game and looks to post the third undefeated season in school history but will be severely depleted as many of its top players have opted out of Saturday's contest.
Kickoff at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami is set for 4 p.m. ET. The Bulldogs are 21-point favorites in the latest Georgia vs. Florida State odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 46. Georgia is the -1563 favorite (risk $1563 to win $100) on the money line, while Florida State is the +761 underdog (see up-to-date odds for every upcoming game on our college football odds page).Â
Before you make any Florida State vs. Georgia picks or college football predictions, you NEED to see the predictions from SportsLine's proven computer model.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every FBS college football game 10,000 times. Since its inception, it has generated a strong profit of well over $2,000 for $100 players on its top-rated college football picks against the spread. It entered bowl season a profitable 13-9 on top-rated spread picks. Anyone who has followed it has seen HUGE returns!
The model knows that Georgia will be looking to prove a point as it became the first team ranked No. 1 in the penultimate CFP poll not to reach the playoff. The Bulldogs are among the best in the nation on both sides of the football as they are eighth in total offense (482.9 yards) and ninth in total defense (295.2 yards allowed). Junior Carson Beck has been superb in his first season as Georgia's starting quarterback, completing 72.4% of his attempts for 3,738 yards (sixth in the nation) with 22 touchdowns and only six interceptions.
The model also is aware that FSU also has reason to feel slighted after becoming the first undefeated Power 5 team to be omitted from the College Football Playoff. The Seminoles are 13th in the country in scoring with an average of 37 points per game and rank 13th or higher in a number of defensive categories, including total defense (13th - 305.7 yards allowed) and points permitted (6th - 15.9). However, they will be facing the Bulldogs without many key players as quarterback Jordan Travis' year ended in November due to a leg injury, backup Tate Rodemaker entered the transfer portal and No. 2 running back Lawrance Toafili recently underwent season-ending surgery while leading rusher Trey Benson, top receivers Keon Coleman and Johnny Wilson, tight end Jaheim Bell and sacks leader Jared Verse all opted out of the Orange Bowl.
Now, the model has set its sights on Saturday's Georgia vs. Florida State matchup in Orange Bowl 2023. We can tell you it is leaning Over on the total, and it also says one side of the spread hits well over 50% of the time. You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any college football picks!
