Chris “The Bear” Fallica reveals tips for “Sugar Bowl”.

Chris “The Bear” Fallica has a pick against the spread for the College Football Playoff quarterfinal game between Georgia and Notre Dame.

On Friday, Fallica announced his betting tips for the upcoming bowl games and quarterfinal games of the College Football Playoff.

In this game, Fallica likes the Bulldogs side.

“I ended up at Georgia -1.5,” Fallica said. “Both teams have mobile quarterbacks, both teams have good defense and good running games, but Georgia just has better players.”

The Bulldogs received a first-round bye after winning the SEC Championship Game. The Fighting Irish easily prevailed against Indiana in their match. Entering this game, the Bulldogs have a record of 11-2 while the Irish are 12-1.

However, a major factor in this game could be the fact that Georgia’s starting quarterback Carson Beck will not play. Gunner Stockton came to the SEC Championship Game and led the Bulldogs to victory, but this will be the QB’s first start.

“The Joker is Gunner Stockton,” Fallica explained. “He can throw the ball, so I’m excited to see how he fares with another three weeks of training.”

In the SEC Championship Game, Stockton completed 12 of 16 passes for 71 yards and 1 interception. The Irish have the No. 8 overall defense in the country, so Stockton will face a tough challenge.

The Irish and Bulldogs will kick off at Caesars Superdome on New Year’s Day at 8:45 p.m. ET.
