3 reasons to watch the CFP national title game

With a massive, 12-point spread outlining the game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the TCU Horned Frogs, one might think there’s little reason to watch. Yet, storylines abound in this CFP national title.

Georgia comes into the CFP national title game as the favorite in every sense of the word. Favorite, because they hold as much as a 12.5-point spread in Las Vegas (according to FanDuel).

Favorite, because of the sheer amount of NFL talent that the team has. Favorite, because Kirby Smart is about to unleash college football’s next dynasty in Athens.

Meanwhile, TCU comes in with little expected of them. After a thrilling Fiesta Bowl win against the prestigious Michigan Wolverines, the Horned Frogs have a chance to claim their first national title since 1938.

Led by sandpaper-tough quarterback Max Duggan, as well as pro prospect receiver Quentin Johnston, the Horned Frogs also have an offense that grinds people into dust. The 263 yards that TCU gained against Michigan’s legitimately tough defense shows they can pound the rock.

Yet, Georgia has their own offensive stars as well. Stetson Bennett IV – whatever one might think of his talent level – is a legitimately good quarterback for the college game. Their rushing attack is a three-horse backfield that demolishes the defense’s will to survive. Ladd McConkey and Brock Bowers are great receiving threats.

Overall, the game between Georgia and TCU could be one that features compelling players who can make compelling plays.
