ATHENS, Ga. — It’s understandable what the College Football Playoff selection committee did by seeding Ohio State No. 4 and TCU No. 3. But they did the No. 1-ranked Georgia Bulldogs no favors in doing so.
Though Georgia is the top-seeded team and will play in its backyard in the Peach Bowl semifinal, the Bulldogs definitely drew the tougher of the two matchups.
Las Vegas oddsmakers indicate that TCU would have been a more favorable pairing, but the committee kept the Horned Frogs (12-1) slotted at No. 3, so they’ll face No. 2 Michigan (13-0) in the Fiesta Bowl semifinal in Glendale, Ariz.
