This ACC title game has implications for both teams and there are tons of bets to be made on this great matchup.

With Michigan losing last week Georgia cracked the top five of the recent BCS poll, but will they stay there long? They need to win this game to get in the BCS playoffs while Alabama may lose and still get in with only one loss. However, the Tide are undefeated and the top-ranked team in the nation.

Alabama has scored at least 50 points in their last two games and they rank fourth in the nation in overall offense and sixth in overall defense.

Since suffering their lone loss of the season to LSU, Georgia won their last five games of the season. Their margin of victory in those five games was 23.2 points per game. Like the Tide the Bulldogs are balanced ranking 13th in the nation on offense and 12th on defense.

These teams met last season in the BCS playoffs with Alabama beating Georgia 26-23 in overtime.

This season Northwestern is 8-4 SU with an ATS record of 6-4-2`and an O/U record of 5-7 and Ohio State is 11-1 SU with an ATS record of 5-7 and an O/U record of 6-6.

In the last five games between these SEC rivals the underdog has covered the spread every time.

Alabama capped off their perfect regular season beating Auburn 52-21 in their finale. The game was close at the half, but the Tide outscored the Tigers 38-7 in the second half. The Crimson Tide racked up 500 total yards while holding Auburn to only 283 yards.

Tua Tagovailoa is likely the Heisman front-runner and in the Auburn game he passed for 324 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. Three different players had at least 72 receiving yards and the team rushed for 123 yards led by Damien Harris with 41 rushing yards. Tagovailoa has 36 touchdowns on the season and has only been picked off twice. He will be up against a Georgia defense that ranks 13th in the nation in pass defense.

In their last game of the season Georgia played out of conference to beat in-state rival Georgia Tech 45-21. They led 38-7 at the half and for the game they had 447 yards, including 285 rushing yards, and they held Tech to 2019 yards.

Jake Fromm passed for 175 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions and D’Andre Swift rushed for 105 yards with Elijah Holyfield chiming in for 79 rushing yards. Fromm has 11 touchdowns and one interception in his last five games and Swift and Holyfield have combined for 1,858 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns. On top of that each is averaging at least 6.7 yards per carry.

Can the Bulldogs move the ball on the Tide defense that ranks 10th in the nation against the pass and 15th against the run?

In the BCS playoffs last season Alabama beat Georgia in overtime. This game will not be so close.

‘Bama is not only the top-ranked team in the nation, but this may be the best ever Tide team.

Like most of their games this season, Alabama will win this game handily and they will also cover the spread.

Alabama will end the BCS hopes of the Bulldogs with the win.
