Championship Game

Alabama over Georgia

Notes

Last year Alabama did what Alabama does and ran through its schedule — until they got shellacked in the national Championship game by Clemson. They lost a lot of coaches and talent, but they reload like no other team in history. They still have Tua at QB and a better staff this year with Sarkisian at OC. We expect this Alabama team to be National Champs. Georgia is probably the 2nd or 3rd best team in the nation, but will be hard pressed to run through their schedule unscathed.

Expect Tennessee to make a bowl, along with 11 other SEC schools (all except Vanderbilt and Ole Miss). LSU could end up the 4th or 5th best team in the nation. It is a very stacked year for the SEC. Alabama the #1 seed. LSU and Georgia top 10 teams. UF, TAMU, and Auburn top 25.
