3. Georgia's depth at running back

Georgia may have the deepest running back room in the country. They are led by Nate Frazier who continues to impress each time he takes the field, but the options behind him are endless.

Chauncey Bowens is excelling as the Bulldogs No. 2 option while Dwight Phillips is thriving in his limited role by gashing defenses every time he touches the ball. Then there is transfer Josh McCray who found his role as a punishing running back against Tennessee and veteran Cash Jones who excels as a third down back.

The good thing about having this much depth is that each player will have fresh legs whenever they take the field. Georgia's offense can use this to their advantage in the second half once Alabama's defense gets tired because UGA's running backs won't even be close to getting exhausted.

So the more touches Georgia can spread out the better, because that will pay dividends late in this game when Alabama's defense can't keep up anymore.
