Georgia and Ole Miss travel to New Orleans, La., for a College Football Playoff quarterfinal game in the Sugar Bowl. The game will be played New Year’s Day at 7 Central and will be shown on ESPN. The Southeastern 16 crew previews the game. Topics include:

We saw a motivated Ole Miss team handle Tulane easily, a game that showed the Rebels are ready to play for new coach Pete Golding. However, Ole Miss’s best two players--Trinidad Chambliss and Kewan Lacy--both suffered shoulder injuries vs. Tulane. Monitor the health of both entering the Sugar Bowl. Georgai’s defense, led by CJ Allen and KJ Bolden, played like some of Kirby Smart’s elite defenses in the season’s second half. They’ll need to play well because Chambiss is a dynamic player, plus, the Rebels can spread a defense out through the air as five pass-catchers--Harrison Wallace III, De’Zhaun Stribling, Deuce Alexander, Dae’Quan Wright and Cayden Lee--enter with over 500 yards receiving.

The Bulldogs have found plenty of offensive balance with physical running back Nate Frazier showing both speed and power, and quarterback Gunner Stockton showing he can make timely plays both through the air and with his feet when needed. Don’t sleep on Ole Miss’s defense, either. The Rebels gave consistent effort there and have stars in linebacker Suntarine Perkins, Princewill Umamielen and didn’t allow more than 26 points in any of their last six games. Both teams are elite on special teams.
