College Football Odds Friday: UCF vs. Georgia Tech Prediction (December 22)

College Football Odds: UCF vs. Georgia Tech

*College football odds as of Friday night

Not every college football bowl game grabs the attention of professional bettors.

Long-term winners bet for value and will happily pass if there’s no edge to be had, no matter how big or how small a matchup.

On the other hand, there are situations where the action is so sharp and so one-sided that it reaches out and slaps you in the face.

Friday night’s Gasparilla Bowl between UCF and Georgia Tech is a prime example.

Now, this doesn’t mean this UCF vs. Georgia Tech prediction is guaranteed to win — it just means bettors with enough respect to move college football odds have come in hard enough to make oddsmakers adjust their numbers.

Let’s take a look.

College Football Prediction: UCF vs. Georgia Tech

The latest college football odds for UCF vs. Georgia Tech show the Knights as 4.5-point spread favorites and an over/under of 66.5.

And when it comes to the wiseguys, it’s the spread that’s of interest heading into Friday’s kickoff.

As recently as Thursday morning, this line was Georgia Tech +6.5 at FanDuel.

But at that moment, sharps steamed the Yellow Jackets and the points, driving this spread down to the current consensus.

Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement across the market and is often the result of bettors with the resources and respect to move odds getting down on the same side of the same game at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.

There are still a handful of sportsbooks, including Caesars, holding strong at Georgia Tech +5, so be sure to shop for the best odds if tailing the smart money for Friday night’s Gasparilla Bowl.
