2022 NCAA Football National Championship MVP Prediction
There are two rules of thumb whenever betting on the MVP of the college football National Championship: choose a player from the team you believe will win, and the safest wager is always a quarterback.
We're following one of these guidelines here. Alabama is our pick to beat Georgia and win it all, so it makes sense to go with a Crimson Tide player. But we're picking against Bryce Young (+225), their QB, because of how important wide receiver Jameson Williams (+600) will be to a winning effort.
Williams caught two touchdowns in the first meeting between Alabama and Georgia, and his success isn't merely owed to throws by Young. The former is an expert at eluding contact and gobbling up yards after the catch. At +600, we like the lucrative return paired with the feasibility of his MVP stock.
OSB Prediction: Jameson Williams (+600)
Highest Scoring Quarter Prediction
Here are the latest Georgia vs. Alabama odds on the highest scoring quarter:
- First: +500
- Second: +175
- Third: +475
- Fourth: +200
- Tie: +750
If the SEC Championship is any indication, the second quarter should be the pick here. We're going a different route.
Both of these teams have met before. They know each other's offensive tendencies and have talented enough defenses to try limiting them. Thus, we expect halftime adjustments to have a major impact for at least one of Georgia or Alabama, which should mean a higher-scoring third quarter.
OSB Prediction: Third quarter (+475)
First Score of Alabama vs. Georgia Prediction
Check out the latest odds on Georgia vs. Alabama for how the first score of the game will be made:
- Georgia Touchdown: +175
- Alabama Touchdown: +200
- Georgia Field Goal: +350
- Alabama Field Goal: +375
- Georgia Safety: +5000
- Alabama Safety: +5000
A lot of this comes down to which team wins the coin toss. However, we like the idea of betting on an Alabama touchdown as the first score.
They'll be looking to make an immediate statement rather than go off in the second quarter like they did last time, and it wouldn't surprise us to see them go for broke on their first possession.
OSB Prediction: Alabama Touchdown (+200)
Who Will Score First Touchdown of 2022 NCAAF National Championship?
Below you'll find Georgia vs. Alabama betting odds for who will score the first touchdown of the 2022 National Championship:
- Jameson Williams: +600
- Brian Robertson Jr.: +600
- Brock Bowers: +900
- Zamir White: +950
- James Cook: +1000
- George Pickens: +1200
- Jahell Billinglsey: +1200
- Slade Bolden: +1400
- Cameron Latu: +1600
- Ja'Corey Brooks: +2000
- Georgia Defense: +2000
- Stetson Bennett: +2500
- Bryce Young: +2500
- Alabama defense: +2500
Bargain bettors who don't think Alabama will score first should take a flier on Georgia's defense at 20-to-1. Still, we're sticking with our faith in Alabama.
And since Jameson Williams is both their most targeted receiver and our official MVP pick, we might as well roll with him.
In the event you think Williams will face tougher coverage, you should consider Slade Bolden. But a 14-to-1 payout isn't enticing enough to move us off the favorite.
OSB Prediction: Jameson Williams (+600)
