Alabama’s experience provides edge in all-SEC National title game

The Georgia Bulldogs have not been in this position of trying to win a college football national championship since 1980 when a freshman running back named Herschel Walker led them to the title.

This year, the Bulldogs are paced by two senior running backs who hope to help freshman quarterback Jake Fromm pull off the upset in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game as 5-point underdogs against the Alabama Crimson Tide on Monday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

The big question is, can Georgia’s Nick Chubb and Sony Michel come close to playing like they did versus the Oklahoma Sooners last Monday in a 54-48 double-overtime victory in the Rose Bowl? Chubb and Michel combined for 326 rushing yards and scored six of the team’s seven touchdowns in the thrilling national semifinal matchup.
