CFN predicts outcome of Georgia vs Alabama

Georgia vs Alabama will be one of the most anticipated games of the 2020 college football season, and certainly the biggest matchup in September among all FBS games.

If Georgia wins this game, the Dawgs might jump all the way to No. 1 in the rankings…they’d certainly deserve to. But a loss is not the end of the world for UGA either. Play the Tide close and Georgia will earn America’s respect. If we get blown out like we have in recent years on the road vs SEC West teams, Kirby Smart will have to run the table the rest of the way if he wants to get back to the College Football Playoff.

Pete Fiutak of College Football News previewed the September 19 game in Tuscaloosa, and gave reasons on why both Georgia and Alabama can win this game.

Why Georgia Will Win

Via Fiutak:

The defensive front seven should be in place to hold up against the pounding that Alabama is going to try to apply.

The Bulldog secondary, though, will be the strength early on.

It’s going to be one of the nation’s best defenses after getting dates against Virginia and East Tennessee State to tune-up.

In the end, Fiutak has Alabama winning in a close battle, which would be ok with most Georgia fans. The playoff committee would have to gain a lot of respect for these Dawgs if they play the mighty Tide like that on the road.
