00:00Georgia, they had one bad half all season against Alabama.

00:03Since then, they've been really good.

00:05They get that win against Texas.

00:07I find it very interesting, Bill,

00:09that Kirby Smart is playing this underdog card, I guess.

00:14You know, but he wants to believe in us, kind of.

00:16I'm like reading all this stuff saying, wait a second here.

00:18Like, you guys are always good.

00:19There's no underdog card here with Georgia.

00:23And they're one of those teams, Bill,

00:24that's going to be playing in the playoff.

00:26I guess the question in your mind is,

00:28were you impressed enough with that win over Georgia

00:30to think that they should be, let's say,

00:32one of the main contenders to win the championship?

00:36Yes, and because of the defense.

00:38That was angry, Georgia.

00:39You know, allowing 1.1 yards per carry

00:42to a really good Texas team

00:45that had dominated everybody up to that point.

00:48You mentioned it.

00:49Kirby plays the underdog card better than anybody.

00:51He plays it when they're 30-point favorites.

00:53He plays it when they're a rare underdog.

00:55But it worked, and they played well.

00:58Most impressive part of that game

00:59was after the pass interference debacle

01:02where the fans were throwing things on the field.

01:04They reversed the call. Texas scores.

01:07What does Georgia do?

01:08They take the ball down the field, 11 plays,

01:1080 yards, touchdown, game over.

01:13That's national championship DNA.

01:15They still have it. Don't love their running game.

01:17I still think that there's some work to be done there,

01:20but this Georgia team is good enough to win a national title.
