2021 Bowl season and playoff

If Georgia was favored over Bama by 6 1/2 on a neutral field, there's only so much they can add/drop in power ratings. Usually no more than 2 points. If they played again this week, Georgia would still be favored. Probably by only 3 or 4, but hard to imagine a 7 pt plus swing, without a QB injury.
Or maybe people put too much into the Clemson win, and they were in the weaker division.

On Tuesday, Michigan football right tackle Andrew Stueber said that no Wolverines are positive for COVID-19, that the team is taking enhanced precautionary measures, and that there would be a team-wide booster shot on Wednesday.

Things appear to be a little different in Athens.

There had been talk about whether or not former five-star quarterback JT Daniels could take the reins for former walk-on and current starter Stetson Bennett IV against the maize and blue in the Capital One Orange Bowl. Additionally, the Bulldogs just got star receiver George Pickens back for the regular season finale after he tore his ACL in the spring. Now both appear to be in jeopardy for the College Football Playoff semifinal.

As first reported by DawgNation, both Daniels and Pickens are in the COVID protocol, strongly endangering their chance to play in the Dec. 31 game against Michigan.

Georgia quarterback JT Daniels and receiver George Pickens are among UGA players who have been placed in COVID protocol, per sources. Daniels is vaccinated but Pickens’ vaccination status is unknown.
The Georgia football medical staff will be offering its players booster shots on Wednesday amid the recent surge in COVID-related cases across the sports landscape. Coach Kirby Smart is not expected to be made available to the media to update player statuses until the team arrives in South Florida on Sunday.

If either of 4 teams in the final four turn up C19, they forefit. Course NCAA did not say what happens if both teams in either game default to bogus testing.

They said the winner of the other game is the champ….if three teams get CoVid nobody claims the title…
