I'm playing on GEORGIA. As you know, Alabama has enjoyed a lot of success on this stage. As you also know, Alabama won the first meeting convincingly. The Tide have been beating the Bulldogs for years. Yet, despite all that, Georgia is favored. So, what's different this time? The loss of Metchie III may not seem like much but its a pretty big deal. Yes, the Tide still have Jameson Williams. Perhaps the top receiver in the country, he killed the Bulldogs in the first meeting. However, the absence of Metchie and a Georgia team intent on slowing him down, will make Williams find the going tougher this time. Alabama compensated for Metchie's absence by running the bal a lot against the Bearcats. However, the Bulldogs are far stingier against the run and won't be pushed around on the line the way that Cincinnati was. These teams averaged roughly the same amount of points. Alabama averaged 41. Georgia averaged 39. On the other side of the ball, the Bulldogs had a big edge. They allowed less than 10 ppg. Bama allowed nearly 20. Five teams gave the Tide real trouble this season: Auburn, Arkansas, Florida, LSU and Texas A&M. Georgia faced three of those five teams and crushed all three of them. The combined score of its win against Arkansas, Florida and Auburn was 105-17. Yet, the Tide beat those teams by only 11 combined points. Enough's enough. It's Georgia's time to shine.
