If the Texas Longhorns thought playing Michigan was going to be its biggest threat in the SEC, it might want to reconsider.

Georgia packs a punch that certainly looks to humble the Longhorns on their journey to conference greatness within only their first year of competition, and it won't be forgiving.

Here's how our staff predicts the game will fare.

Arguably the game of the year for many, Texas and Georgia are facing off as the two heavyweights of the SEC up to this point. The Longhorns will have home-field advantage. But are they ready to take down a Georgia team that has its backs against the wall? I don't think they cover the spread, but I do think they get the win.

This will be the toughest game of the season for Texas, and the match will definitely live up to its hype. The Longhorns have been on a winning streak and I think this will continue despite the strength of the Georgia offense.

It's going to take one heck of a performance from the Longhorns to defeat a football program like the Georgia Bulldogs. There's no doubt that this will be a tough-fought battle from both teams in every aspect, and I think this marks the most challenging opponent Texas will face. However, the Longhorns have convinced me that they have what it takes to overcome any obstacle that stands in between them and the national championship.

Texas wins after Georgia takes a quick lead in the first half. Ewers gets 3 touchdowns and has a winning drive in the fourth to keep Texas unbeaten.

Texas and Georgia will go back and forth in an all-out showdown. Quinn Ewers will have a perfect game and throw for four touchdowns and Texas will come out on top.
