The Georgia Bulldogs played in their first Rose Bowl since 1943 — and it turned out well for them as they emerged with a 54-48 overtime win over the Oklahoma Sooners. Now they have a chance to bring another long-running streak to an end, as they contend for their first College Football Championship since 1980. However, an imposing foe stands in their way, as the Alabama Crimson Tide made their way into the College Football Playoff after an undefeated Wisconsin team failed to put away Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship and then shut down the Clemson Tigers, 24-6, in the Sugar Bowl. Can Georgia shed their long-standing reputation for folding on big stages, or will Alabama make it five national titles in the last nine years? Here’s a look at the NCAAF odds to bet against the spread.
