College Football Playoff Projections 2018: Georgia rising in Week 14

4. Georgia Bulldogs

The last time the Georgia Bulldogs were ranked in the top-four this season was Week 7. That week, the Bulldogs lost by 20 points to LSU, in Baton Rouge. The following week, they fell six spots down to No. 8. Since then, the Bulldogs have slowly been creeping their way up back the rankings.

In Week 13, Georgia defeated the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, 45-21. Jake Fromm, the Bulldog’s sophomore quarterback, looked the best he has all season with four touchdowns and a 82 percent completion percentage. Additionally, the rushing pair of D’Andre Smith and Elijah Holyfield appeared unstoppable. Swift averaged 7.5 yards per carry, while Holyfield averaged 8.8. Both players found the endzone this weekend.

Coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs will take on Alabama in the SEC Championship Game. This will be a rematch of last year’s  National Championship Game. Were it not for, then freshman, Tua Tagovailoa coming in at halftime to save the day, Georgia would have likely won the championship.

So, do the Bulldogs have a chance this time to beat Alabama? Probably not. But the game will be incredibly intense due to the fact that a loss for Georgia would be their second of the year, and effectively eliminate them from the playoff.
