Following the news of incoming graduate transfer quarterback Jamie Newman opting out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19 concerns, former Georgia All-American linebacker, and current ESPN college football analyst David Pollack has changed his pick of the Dawgs winning it all this year.
With Jamie Newman as Georgia’s QB I was going to pick them to win the Natty. Now? Back to Bama/Clemson

Pollack has been known to not be biased with his alma-matter but seems to have been all in on the Jamie Newman train. With Newman now preparing for the 2021 NFL Draft and the quarterback position up in the air for Georgia, Pollack reverted to predicting Alabama or Clemson as the 2020 National Champions.
Newman completed 60.5 percent of his passes, throwing for 3,959 yards, 35 touchdowns and 16 interceptions in three seasons at Wake Forest. He also rushed for 826 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Now Kirby Smart and offensive coordinator Todd Monken will have to study their depth chart and see who is the next best pick to have under center in 2020.
