Georgia vs TCU Preview & Picks

TCU are backed to cover in a losing effort in the National Championship.

Georgia are rightly favorites to win back-to-back titles, but the Horned Frogs can run them close.

  • TCU are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games
  • TCU are 3-0-0 ATS as a betting underdog this season
  • Georgia are 0-4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs SEC teams
  • Georgia are 2-2-0 ATS at a neutral venue this season
  • The Over has hit in 5 of Georgia’s last 7 games
  • The Over has cashed in 3 of Georgia’s 4 neutral venue games

Head To Head

  • Georgia lead the all-time series 4-0
  • Georgia won 31-23 when the teams last met in December 2016

Georgia Form

Georgia go into the National Championship Game having won all 14 of their outings this season.

They compiled a perfect 12-0 regular season record that saw them beat a couple of fellow ranked teams.

The Bulldogs blew out #11 Oregon on opening night, 49-3, and later in the season beat #2 Tennessee 27-13 with a dominant performance.

That earned them a meeting with #11 LSU in the SEC Championship Game, and Georgia ran out 50-30 winners in that one to regain the conference crown.

Georgia then backed that up in the fourth quarter fightback to edge #4 Ohio State 42-41 in the Peach Bowl, securing a return to the National Championship.

TCU Form

TCU are making a surprise appearance in the National Championship after winning 13 of their 14 games this season.

The Horned Frogs wet on a tea in October as they reeled off four consecutive wins against ranked teams.

They downed #18 Oklahoma (55-24), #19 Kansas (38-31), #8 Oklahoma State (43-40) and #17 Kansas State (38-28) on their way to a 12-0 regular season.

TCU failed to win the Big 12 Championship though, suffering a surprise 31-28 defeat to #13 Kansas State in the conference championship.

The Horned Frogs issued a sensational response though, stunning #2 Michigan 51-45 in a wild Fiesta Bowl shootout to set up this meeting with Georgia.
