Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide have revenge still on their mind. The Crimson Tide lost to Clemson a season ago, and got payback on that, but losing in the title game still stings. Now, the Crimson Tide will look to take out a conference foe. Alabama’s lone loss this season was to Auburn.  The Tigers held the Alabama offense to just 14 points in that game.

The offense sees Jalen Hurts lead the way at quarterback, He, along with Damien Harris and Calvin Ridley do much of the offensive damage. Harris rushed for 11 touchdowns and just shy of 1,000 yards, while Ridley caught a team high 59 passes during the regular season.

Bulldogs Seeking Upset

Kirby Smart is the head coach of the Georgia Bulldogs. In his second season, the head coach came over after being Saban’s long time assistant. The Bulldogs also took their only loss to Auburn this season. Georgia ranked as one of the top rushing teams in the nation, and also one of the top defensive teams in all of College Football.

The running back duo of Sony Michel and Nick Chubb was the best in the nation. Chubb led the Bulldogs attack with 1,320 yards and 15 touchdowns, but Michel was the back with the winning touchdown over Oklahoma. Quarterback Jake Fromm threw for 23 touchdowns, with 7 of them going to Javon Wims.

Crimson Tide Roll to Another Title

One thing Nick Saban knows how to do – and that’s win national titles. Many wonder if Saban will leave for the National Football League at any point, but right now – he loves winning national championships. He is going to get another one at Alabama. The Crimson Tide are healthy, and have too many better players than Georgia. If the Bulldogs are going to expect to run the ball all night, that’s not going to happen. Alabama will have their defensive shoes on ready to slow down the Georgia run offense. When you are betting this game, take Alabama -4 over Georgia.
