Can TCU beat a mistake-free Georgia? Will the Dawgs take shots down the field? Who can take advantage of their running QB? RJ_Writes takes a look at the CFP national championship’s most important scheme questions
The college football national championship is nearly here. Georgia and TCU meet in a title game that is in many ways a different proposition from the semifinals. Both teams had weeks to plan for the semis, then bring out whatever wrinkles they’ve been working on. The title game is a much more normal game planning scenario, but the semifinal performances brings up new questions for each team,
Michigan ripped off 39 points in the second half, albeit out of their normal game plan, and TCU was able to answer with haymakers of its own to keep the Wolverines at an arm’s length. Even the way the Horned Frogs got the two goal-line stops were advantageous. One, the ball bounced into the end zone for a recovered touchback and the other, instead of stymying the Wolverines at the 2-yard line , they got a tackle for loss and assumed the ball at the 10 rather than being backed up.
, as he went 13-of-16 beyond the line of scrimmage between the numbers. Can Duggan come close to matching that performance?Carter wasn’t terribly impactful on the stat sheet, and TCU did just neutralize Michigan interior defenders Mazi Smith and Kris Jenkins. But can they do that again against Carter? Part of Ohio State’s plan to mitigate Carter had Stroud on multiple bootleg plays and changing his launch point.
What Washington gives the Georgia offense is a unique two-tight end set in which he lines up as a sixth offensive lineman and Brock Bowers is jumbo slot receiver. Whether Delp can fill in for Washington in the same ways—particularly as a run blocker—will be a subplot to this game. But Georgia could opt to go with one tight end more often, and more wide receivers now that Adonai Mitchell has proved to be a healthy and capable complement to Arian Smith and Ladd McConkey.
