It's going to be a very interesting matchup.
Let's look at defense first.
Alabama:
-No true "pass rusher". They don't have anyone on the team with more than 5 sacks or 9 tackles for loss. That's really their only weakness on defense, which can put their secondary in a bind.
Georgia:
-Jarvis Jones is a terror to opposing offenses with 10.5 sacks and 19.5 tackles for loss, but the Georgia defense has been susceptible against the run.
Offensively, it looks like the strength of both teams plays well against the weakness of the opposing defenses. If Murray has time in the pocket, he will do enough to make Alabama pay. If Georgia can't slow down the Alabama run game, they will impose their will.
I see both teams scoring in the 20's and, if I had to choose, I would pick Georgia.

bama is fine on the pass rush, they are tied with LSU and A&M for 26th, all have 30 team sacks. Only South Carolina and Arkansas (31 sacks) have had a better pash rush in the SEC this year.
