The law in Georgia, in plain English

Georgia's constitution requires a voter referendum for new gambling, and the General Assembly has not agreed on the ballot language in any session since 2020. No sportsbook app can operate in the state.

Bulldogs fans do have a federally regulated route: prediction markets. Novig lists moneyline, spread and total markets on every Georgia game and is available statewide, alongside Kalshi and Polymarket US.
