Georgia Bulldogs vs Alabama Crimson Tide

TAKE BAMA!!! THE DAWGS CAN NOT BEAT ANYONE WITH A GOOD QB!!! SABAN OWNS KIRBY!!! BAMA WINS ANOTHER NATTY AND THE OVER HITS

ROLL....DAMN....TIDE YALL!!!! BAMA -7

Monday night in the college football National Championship game the defending national champ Alabama Crimson Tide will play the Georgia Bulldogs. The two teams played a little over a month ago with Bama winning 41-24. I don’t expect this game to be as high scoring as they combined to score only 27 points in that game outside of the 38 points scored in the 2nd quarter. Georgia has held 8 opponents to 7-points or less and had a strong defensive performance in the playoff semi-final against Michigan. Alabama’s offensive embarrassed them in their last game, and I expect UGA’s defensive will play much better. The under is 7-3 in Georgia’s last 10 games, 4-0 in their last 4 bowl games, and 5-0 in their last 5 games after accumulating more than 450 total yards in their previous game. I like the Under 52.5

It's hard to beat a team twice in a season, let alone twice within a month. But guess what's harder? To beat Nick Saban in a national championship game. This is his 10th title bout and he's only lost twice, or let's call it a 80% win ratio. When he did lose it was to a Clemson team led by the best quarterback in college football that particular season: Deshaun Watson (2015) and Trevor Lawrence (2018).

Georgia QB Stetson Bennett isn't on that level, and the Tide seem to have found a groove in their bludgeoning of the Bulldogs, 41–24, a month ago in the SEC championship game. Sure, Georgia's defense is generational. But have you seen Alabama's receivers? The Bulldogs' secondary struggled to keep pace the first time around and there's no reason to think it won't have more issues in the sequel. Even without WR John Metchie, Alabama has plenty of talent at receiver with J. Williams and Bolden.

In a game like this I'm betting on the better QB and better coach and that's Alabama and getting +3 points is the icing on the cake.

The Georgia defense was one of the greatest in college history, with the SEC Championship Game against Bama being their worst game by far. They failed to get pressure, and the result was their secondary getting picked apart by Bryce Young and Bama's receiving core. The running game also struggled to get going on offense, and Stetson Bennett wasn't able to carry the offense with his arm. They'll need to win the line of scrimmage on both sides this time if they want to win the title.

Bama will be missing WR John Metchie III tonight, a big blow to the offense. A large part of the reason they won the first matchup was that they have a better quarterback and receiving core than the Bulldogs. Jameson Williams (7/184/2) did most of the damage last game, but the question is if someone else can step up now that he figures to get the most attention. The defense had three sacks, six tackles for a loss, two interceptions, and a touchdown in the first game. They held Georgia to 14 points over the last 44:56 of the game.

Pick: As difficult as it is to sweep a good team, I can't pick against Bama here. I think Georgia is the better team, but Alabama matches up well. I'm taking the Crimson Tide for the Championship...again.

The Georgia Bulldogs do not play well against Bryce Young. The Alabama quarterback dodge tackles and he doesn’t feel unfazed during big games. His ability to move in the pocket while keeping his attention downfield allowed him to shred the vaunted Georgia defense. On the other hand, there is much concern about Georgia’s offense because they’re not comfortable playing from behind. It will be a tall order for their elite defense to neutralize the Heisman Trophy winner and the Roll Tide offense. That said, Alabama will get a repeat win over Georgia to win the National Championship. Once Nick Saban’s team get in front, Stetson Bennett will make costly mistake due to the pressure. Take Alabama to win and bet on the over 52.5 because the points will start pouring.

Tonight we'll see the rematch of the SEC Championship game with Georgia and Alabama squaring off in the National Championship. Currently, 34% of the bets are on Georgia with 39% of the handle on the Bulldogs. I think we'll see Georgia make some major adjustments and throw the kitchen sink at the Tide tonight. It's going to be tough to beat this Georgia team twice in the same year.

Georgia -2.5

DING DING DING NO PAIN NO BRAIN The Georgia Linebackers will put a hurting on the Bama running backs,The Tightends will have a field day for the Bulldogs! 5 unit play for the new national champions!

TAKE GEORGIA-2.5

***PROP PLAY*** Brian Robinson Jr. Under 72.5 Rushing Yards (-140)

Brain Robinson Jr. has arguably been the focal point for Alabama’s offense the past month. The senior tailback has toted the rock 85 times in the Tide’s last four games, resulting in 113 yards per game on the ground.

But this is the Georgia run defense we’re talking about. The same unit that enters fourth against the run (82.3 YPG), fourth in yards per carry allowed (2.66 YPC) and first in terms of preventing runs of 20 and 30 yards or more.

That last statistic is key when you’re facing a player prop in this range. Robinson will have to grind it out against a stout UGA front, and it’s highly unlikely he can bank on a single run to get him halfway to his total.

It doesn’t hurt that UGA held him to 55 yards on 16 carries during the SEC title game and Alabama could be missing their right tackle and right guard for this game.

Love the Under 72.5 rushing tonight for Alabama's Brian Robinson Jr.

Bama without their starting right tackle and starting right guard tonight. The Crimson Tide saw two of its starting offensive linemen suffer injuries during last week’s Cotton Bowl win over Cincinnati as right guard Emil Ekiyor Jr. left the game in the first quarter with a dislocated shoulder before right tackle Chris Owens exited in the fourth quarter with an undisclosed injury. Both are questionable (or limited) for tonight’s game.

And obviously no John Metchie for Bama' after he tore his ACL.

But even if Alabama was healthy I would still lay the points with Georgia here. If you watched Georgia all season you would know they were the most dominate team in college football this season. In the SEC Championship game Alabama (and Bryce Young) played their best football game of the year and Georgia played their worst game of the year. But we saw against Michigan what this Georgia team is capable of doing.

I just can't see this Georgia team dropping two eggs in a row...especially against an Alabama team that will be without some key players tonight. Nick Saban be damned.

Score Prediction: Alabama 20 - Georgia 31

Here we are folks, the game of the year. Alabama has owned Georgia in recent memory in meaningful games, but this year might be different. We all know how dominant this UGA defense is, look what it did to the Michigan run game. We did however, find out how susceptible they are to good passing QBs. Bryce Young had his Heisman moment in the UGA game with a bunch of big plays. However, I think this time will be different. Bennett will have to play the game of his life and Kirby will have to help him out by getting the run game working. It is really hard to beat a team twice and I think UGA will take care of this one

I’ve been saying all year this is Georgia’s year and I’m sticking to it! Georgia defense will win and carry this team to a National Championship! Kirby is on a mission and will get revenge on bama and Saban. Love Georgia to win and cover spread. Prediction 31-21 Dawgs!! Good luck friends.
