The Georgia Bulldogs open the 2021 year with at #5 overall ranking following an 8-2 season complete with a Chick-FIl-A bowl win. Jt Daniels will finally get his time atop the Georgia offense looking to lead them to promise in 2021. Daniels will start the year as the #1 guy after closing the year over the last 4 games leading the Bulldogs to a bowl win. Zamir White will be in the back field as the leading rusher from last season to take some pressure of Daniels to start the year.
The Georgia defense is stacked at every position led by a big deep line and a group of Linebackers that will lead this team in 2021. Georgias biggest issue is in the secondary and that will most likely show in this game against an explosive and talented Clemson team that could lead to the difference in this game.
Clemson enters the post Trevor Lawrence era with loads of talent and a new QB under center. D.J. Uiagalelei finally takes his position at the top of the Offense and the youngster is full of talent and confidence. With a host of weapons at receiver and a veteran in Lyn-J Dixon this Tigers offense is poised to beat up on everyone they play.
Defensively Clemson is as good as it gets with the #1 Defense in the nation heading into week 1. After the struggles to close the 2020 season this Clemson defense will use size and depth to push opponents around and clog up running lanes. The defense will be led by the best D-Line in the land and will take this team as far as the go disrupting offenses starting in week 1.
