The college football picks big game in the Southeastern Conference on Saturday pits the 4-0 LSU Tigers against the 3-1 Georgia Bulldogs (3:30 pm ET, CBS) down between the hedges in Georgia's Sanford Stadium.

Georgia, meanwhile, opened the season with a loss at Oklahoma State, and has since beaten South Carolina, Arkansas, and Arizona State, and sits at No. 18 in the rankings. But they also are just 1-3 vs. the numbers. And in their win over the Sun Devils last week the Bulldogs needed a last-second field goal after blowing a 14-3 halftime lead as 13.5-point home favorites.
Last year Georgia went to Baton Rouge and came away with a 52-38 decision.
