Aaron Murray predicts national championship winner

Former Georgia Bulldog Aaron Murray submitted his CFB playoff bracket predictions on Instagram. He predicted the Ohio State Buckeyes to take home the national championship, winning it against the Georgia Bulldogs.

Ohio State is the No. 8 seed in the College Football Playoff. The Buckeyes have a 65.3% chance to beat Tennessee according to ESPN’s matchup predictor. If Ohio State beats Tennessee, then they’d have to play against the No. 1 Oregon Ducks in the Rose Bowl, a rematch of a game Ohio State lost to Oregon in Week 7. Murray has the Buckeyes playing the Texas Longhorns in the semifinal, and of course, he has Ohio State playing against his former team.

Murray still has the Bulldogs reaching the national championship despite showing little faith in Georgia quarterback Gunner Stockton.

Murray was one of several people from the Players Lounge to post their predictions, including former Bulldog Keith Marshall, former Tennessee Volunteer Josh Dobbs, and former Clemson Tiger Darien Rencher.

Marshall, along with content creator Jack Wright, predicted the Bulldogs to win the championship. Clemson journalist Mare d’Entremont was the lowest of the bunch on the Georgia Bulldogs, predicting Notre Dame to beat them in the Sugar Bowl.
