ESPN writer Max Olson, known for covering transfer portal news on X, predicted the Georgia Bulldogs will play the Oregon Ducks in the College Football Playoff national championship. Unfortunately, in Olson’s prediction, the Bulldogs lose to the Ducks 34-27.
Olson is part of the ESPN staff that wrote an article on their CFP bracket predictions.
Writer Chris Low was the highest on Georgia amongst the group. He predicted the Bulldogs winning the national title game against the Ohio State Buckeyes. Four of the twelve writers predicted Georgia losing the championship to Oregon.
Interestingly enough, every other writer, including SP+ writer Bill Connelly, has Georgia losing in the Sugar Bowl to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
The variability more than likely comes from quarterback Gunner Stockton’s inexperience, despite Stockton’s valiant effort in the SEC championship. However, former Georgia Bulldog Aaron Murray still believes Georgia can make the national championship even with his lack of faith in Stockton.
