Georgia props over at SportsLine, including one that pays out at over Get his top college football prop picks now. Cook has become a valuable receiving option out of the backfield for quarterback Stetson Bennett. Our guys are not used to it. Fortunately, we won't be playing in it, so I told them to get used to it from the plane to the bus. Monday night marks the first time the College Football Playoff championship game will be played in a northern city, and though the Lucas Oil Stadium dome will be closed, this was not the greeting organizers hoped for.
Thursday night's wind chills dipped into negative digits and were still hovering there Friday morning. The highs Saturday and Sunday are expected to be near 40 degrees before lows are forecast to hit single digits again Monday night. The good news is Indy's maze of indoor walkways mean players and fans won't need to be outside much if at all -- just like the teams that competed in last spring's NCAA men's basketball tournament. And in a region best known for embracing basketball, racing and the Big Ten, the buzz heating up around town is all about the Alabama-Georgia rematch.
One electronic billboard even renamed the city as Indianapoli-SEC. Georgia coach Kirby Smart was not scheduled to speak with reporters after the Bulldogs arrived Friday. He did briefly, anyway. A crowd of roughly 68, is expected to attend the game in the same venue where the NFL's Indianapolis Colts have been playing in front of full or near-capacity crowds since August.
Organizers are not requiring fans to wear masks, though they do strongly encourage using them. It's not a new phenomenon for Indy, either.
Expect defensive coordinator Dan Lanning to dial up plenty of pressure in his final game before he devotes his full attention to his new job as Oregon's coach. Offensively, quarterback Stetson Bennett appeared to squash the questions over whether his job may be in jeopardy during the Orange Bowl as he completed 20 of 30 passes for yards and three touchdowns without an interception.
The Bulldogs moved the ball effectively against Alabama in the last meeting, but Bennett's two interceptions hampered their chances of getting back in the game. Bennett is against Alabama as Georgia's starting quarterback and leading UGA to a landmark national title would be the ultimate validation for the undersized former walk-on who has been doubted his entire career.

Alabama's back was against the wall when these teams met on Dec. The Crimson Tide turned in a second quarter for the ages and raced to a victory that de-legitimized Georgia's accomplishments during a dominant regular season. The nature of that loss -- with the Crimson Tide dissecting UGA's celebrated defense -- will motivate the Bulldogs, who will use what they learned to play much better defensively in the rematch.
This time, it's Georgia playing with a chip on its shoulder, and that will show as the Bulldogs finally breakthrough for the program's first national championship in over four decades.
