One thing we can tell you for Week 3: Marshall is backing South Carolina (+27.5) to stay within the spread at top-ranked Georgia in the 3:30 p.m. ET SEC on CBS matchup.

"The Gamecocks are the last SEC team to win in Athens back in 2019 for Will Muschamp," Marshall said. "Note that the road team has also covered in last seven series meetings. Kirby Smart is only 4-3 vs. line in last seven as Sanford Stadium SEC home chalk."
