00:00Our final two on New Year's Day, the granddaddy of them all in the Rose Bowl between Oregon

00:08and Ohio State in the rematch in the Sugar Bowl in the Big Easy between Georgia and Notre

00:13Dame.

00:14Heavyweight bouts with the spreads to back it up two and a half point number in favor

00:18of the Buckeyes.

00:19Now just eight point and a half in favor of Georgia and Gunnar Stockton.

00:23Which game is more competitive to end out New Year's Day?

00:26I think it's the Notre Dame-Georgia game.

00:29And the reason why I say that is just styles, right?

00:32You look at that secondary for Notre Dame, still holding opposing offenses under 50 percent

00:37completion percentage.

00:38They're opportunistic in terms of interceptions, 19 on the year.

00:42They could take it to the house any time.

00:44They're going to force Gunnar Stockton to make plays.

00:47And again, the way they run the football, they're going to force that Georgia defense

00:51to stop them.

00:52And Georgia, again, has had problems with mobile quarterbacks.

00:55I'm not suggesting Riley Leonard is Jalen Milrow, but he could be in between Haynes

01:00King and Jalen Milrow.

01:02And this game could be a very tight game heading into the fourth quarter.

01:05And it's expected to be.

01:06It's a one and a half point line.

01:08Let's not, oh, young, scrappy Notre Dame.

01:12I mean, again, this was a team who opened as a favorite in this football game here.

01:17So look, I know that it's a, wow, you're expecting Marcus Freeman to beat Georgia.

01:22Yeah, I mean, yeah, like that is the expectation heading into this game now in the rematch between

01:27Oregon and Ohio State in the Rose Bowl as well.
