CFB National Championship Game: TCU vs. Georgia – Best Free Pick

TCU brings the most explosive offense in the country into the National Title Game Monday Night, but it’s not just Max Duggan’s arm the Georgia Bulldogs should be concerned with. TCU’s gunslinger can flat-out run, and he doesn’t mind doing it. This will be the third time in a row we have gone to the well on Max Duggan’s rushing prop, and we fully expect him to deliver again. In the Big 12 Championship against Kansas State, Duggan toted the rock 15 times for 110 yards. He followed that up with 15 more carries for 57 yards against Michigan in the CFP Semifinal game last week. What we have to remember when betting college football quarterbacks to go over their rushing totals is that sacks count against their yardage. Fortunately, TCU’s offensive line has been stellar this year and only gave up more than one sack in a game four times in 14 games. Georgia’s defense will flush Duggan out of the pocket all night, and we think this will be a positive for those of us holding tickets for Duggan to rack up rushing yards. Bovada is currently dealing 31.5 (-125) and we are down on the over.

Prediction: Max Duggan (TCU) over 31.5 rushing yards
