Title Game Tonight - Who You Got?
Assuming you're watching the game and not boycotting on account of it being an all-SEC matchup, who you got in tonight's title game? Georgia? Alabama? Or the meteor?
I'd like to see Georgia win if for no other reason than I think it's good for the game to have someone other than Alabama win, but I can't bet against Nick Saban and what appears to now be his fully armed and operational Death Star. Especially now that he's got his whole team buying into the "no one thought you deserved to be here" mentality. I got Alabama 24-14. Georgia's defense plays well but Fromm gets harassed all night and Chubb/Michel can't ever get much going against a slew of defenders who will all go in the first or second round of the draft at some point.
What say you?

Who do I think will win?
Alabama, because they're Alabama.
Who do I want to win?
Georgia, because they're not Alabama.
Am I boycotting because it's all-SEC?
Yes and no. While not a formal boycott, I'm way less interested in a game between only SEC opponents, so I don't care if I miss it.

Hey 4EBG you are back! Hope all is well and missed your banter on the blog.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:50 AM ^
Georgia. Alabama needs a new runner up trophy.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:56 AM ^
Good point, although I think it would be better for Michigan in the Otis Reese recruitiment if UGA loses.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:52 AM ^
UCF...
Bama didn't deseve to be there and UGA fans are unsufferable already.

Pistons over the Pellies in a tight one.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:53 AM ^
... not that I'm boycotting. I just don't have any interest in either of those teams. So, my guess is we'll either be watching some show that won a lot of awards last night during the Golden Globes, because my wife's interest has been piqued. Or, we'll watch the Bachelor because... I have no idea why that show still exists.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:57 AM ^
Sex sells
January 8th, 2018 at 12:11 PM ^
Because people like you watch it.
Da Fuq, man? Why would you admit that here?
January 8th, 2018 at 12:36 PM ^

January 8th, 2018 at 12:35 PM ^
I don't care who is playing: if you willingly watch The Bachelor over a college football national championship, you should go ahead and just delete your account here and never come back.
January 8th, 2018 at 1:18 PM ^
i love Michigain and Michigan athletics, not all of Colege Football. And definitely not the semi-pro football leagues down in the South. So, I think I'll go ahead and keep this account.

A match-up of Alabama vs. Alabama Jr should logically favor Alabama. But I'm hoping UGa wins and will pick them instead. Beat Satan!
January 8th, 2018 at 11:54 AM ^
My wife is a Dawg alum and former cheerleader. Our home will obviously be pulling for them. I'm just grateful she didn't make the trip to Atl and drop $2k on a ticket.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:58 AM ^
I mean that your wife is too sensible to drop 2k on a football ticket. That's great.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:13 PM ^
She would've dropped 2k minimum on Standing Room Only seating. That was probably a smart move on her part.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:02 PM ^
however, if Georgia getting embarrassed would make it 1% less likely they swoop in at the last minute and get Otis Reese, I'm for that. Then I'll take a hot shower after and probably throw up in my mouth a little, because Saban.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:05 PM ^
as long as Satan and his muppet sidekick Kirby get struck by lightening first that would be a perfect outcome for this game.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:57 AM ^
M to win it all. Next year.
January 8th, 2018 at 11:57 AM ^
Alabama 20-10
January 8th, 2018 at 11:58 AM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 12:03 PM ^
As someone who lives in Georgia let me tell you that UGA fans are almost unsufferable as it is. You would think they have won every National Championship that the SEC took part in if you listen to some of them.
Bad as it is you still probably want another trophy in Satan's case. It's easy to point out that Bama didn't deserve to be there by their own coaches statement.
January 8th, 2018 at 1:27 PM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 11:59 AM ^
Bama already has the cache of being great - no need to let Georgia get some of that too
then when Saban eventually retires no one else from the SEC will be a title holder
January 8th, 2018 at 12:00 PM ^
Two teams that are more or less the same version of each other. Saban's coached more big games.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:02 PM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 12:08 PM ^
A guy can hope.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:08 PM ^
I'm chaning my answer...
I want this to go down as the 'worst and most boring championship ever', full of turnovers, penalties and ejections, and going to OT tied 0-0... then Georgia wins by sneaking in a tipped field goal.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:09 PM ^
aye my dawgs finna cook saban. aTL will b so lit tonite. cant wait. too bad thisll be GA's last natty after next year when harbaugh takes us to the ship
January 8th, 2018 at 12:14 PM ^
I'm hoping for the meteor...
But if that misses, there will be no suspense. Bama will crowd the LoS and stop UGA's run game. Jake Fromm State Farm will not be good enough to beat them over the top with his arm. Bama's offense will score something. Game over.
Boring SEC snoozefest that Bama always wins.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:21 PM ^
not watching
January 8th, 2018 at 12:22 PM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 12:32 PM ^
I've got a friend who's a reall good guy and a big UGA fan / grad so I'd like to see Georgia win for him, but I suspect Bama does what Bama does and wins a boring game something like 34-14
January 8th, 2018 at 12:34 PM ^
Clemson won the title the year after Georgia did in 1980, so Georgia will get national title #2 the year after Clemson got their second title. I'm very Obsessive Complusive
January 8th, 2018 at 12:35 PM ^
Could care less about another SEC team winning the NC. But, like you would at least like to see Georgia win because it's not Alabama again.......
January 8th, 2018 at 12:37 PM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 12:40 PM ^
I admit -- I wrote them off. I thought Clemson was gonna roll them pretty good.
Not gonna do that again.
Alabama - 27
Georgia - 24
January 8th, 2018 at 12:41 PM ^
If it fails again, Alabama in close one. 24 -21.
January 8th, 2018 at 12:48 PM ^
January 8th, 2018 at 12:53 PM ^
Because I don't give a baker's fuck!
