#2 Oklahoma vs #3 Georgia

Hasn't been announced yet but pretty sure that's it.

First ever meeting between these two historic programs and what better setting than the granddaddy of them all!

Pumped. Going to be awesome. Good luck Georgia:suds:

Oklahoma's offense is going to be tough to slow down. As long as our pass rush is as good as it was last night it should be a good one.

OU always does well against Sec teams. We are 3-1-1 vs Alabama, 2-0 vs Auburn, 3-1 vs Tennessee, 10-4-1 vs Arkansas. We have never played Georgia before which is interesting.

If this is the matchup, I'm willing to do an avatar bet with ONE Oklahoma poster. 2 weeks, straight up(no spread), only rule is nothing that would get either of us banned(no nudity, racism, etc)

Judging by your avy you are not very good at betting?

I have an annual bet with @SlinkyRedfoot for Braves vs Indians record. Braves are rebuilding, Indians are WS contenders.

But there's an Auburn fan rocking an avy of my choosing this morning.

If there are two SEC teams in the CFP, they need to be in the same bracket.

I don't think the majority of America wants to watch another all SEC NCG.

I wouldn't worry too much about that. Bama/OSU, doesn't matter, Clemson beats either one.

Won't happen.

It'll be Clemson vs Alabama and Georgia vs Oklahoma.

That said, the odds of a SEC NCG are pretty slim.

But if the committee is gonna put Alabama in, they should at least make Bama the 3 seed and reward Georgia with the Sugar Bowl instead of the Rose Bowl. At least punish Bama by making them go across the country.

I figure Georgia will be a considerable underdog against either Clemson or Oklahoma. I like our chances better playing in the Sugar Bowl and against an old rival.

It's CFB. Anything can happen when these teams get near a month to scout each other.

Oklahoma is undefeated in the Rose Bowl.

Alabama has the most Rose Bowls wins of any Non Pac12/Big10 team and more than the majority of the teams in the Pac12/Big10.

I'll take the Rose over the Sugar all day. Which is funny because when I was a kid, making it to the Sugar Bowl was the goal of the year.
