Summary

We are five days away from college football’s national championship game, a David and Goliath showdown between the defending champion Georgia Bulldogs, and the team no one expected to be here: the TCU Horned Frogs. Today, we’re joined by Seth Emerson — who covers Georgia for The Athletic — to look at Stetson Bennett’s encore, and what has made this edition of the Bulldogs so unstoppable. Then, we talk to The Athletic’s Sam Khan Jr. about tiny TCU’s dramatic turnaround, and the blueprint to an epic upset for the underdog Horned Frogs.
