The Matchups: There is a lot of good NFL talent going head-to-head in the National Championship. This will be a good test for TCU quarterback Max Duggan, as he is facing a tough defense led by Jalen Carter, one of the best prospects for the 2023 NFL Draft. Carter will take on a good interior offensive lineman in Steve Avila.

Horned Frogs wide receiver Quentin Johnston could be the top receiver for the 2023 NFL Draft, and he could eat up Georgia corner Kelee Ringo, who struggles with change of direction. After disappointing against LSU and Ohio State, Ringo needs a big game in which he doesn't get picked on a lot. Johnston could use a big game to help his chances of ending up as a top-10 pick this coming April in the 2023 NFL Draft.
