Georgia and Alabama are gearing up for Monday’s National Championship Game in Atlanta, and the early betting trends suggest that the battle between the two teams may be a tight one.

According to ESPN gambling writer David Payne Purdum, there is less than $1,000 separating the two teams. There is certainly enough evidence to make a case for either team winning, and it sounds like betters are having a tough time deciding where to place their money.

Alabama dominated a defensive battle against Clemson in the Sugar Bowl while Georgia went on to win a shootout over Oklahoma in the Rose Bowl. While this game will likely not be as high scoring as the Rose Bowl, both teams look prepared to go toe-to-toe with one another regardless of the game tempo.

Who would you put money on in the championship?
