Which former Georgia RB has more rushing yards in the Super Bowl? You can now bet on that
Super Bowl LIII from Atlanta will serve as a showcase of sorts for Georgia’s strong claim to “Running Back U” as both Todd Gurley and Sony Michel could represent Los Angeles and New England in their starting lineups.
While Michel didn’t turn many heads early in his rookie season in the NFL, he has turned into a revelation for the Patriots in the postseason. So far, the rookie running back has five rushing touchdowns in only two postseason games and has played a huge role in the team advancing to the Super Bowl.
The other sideline features one of the NFL’s most dynamic offensive players in Gurley, however, the Rams star running back has been limited this postseason and rarely saw action in the NFC Championship Game.
Taking all that into consideration, it appears to be a toss-up regarding which running back will earn the most yards in the Super Bowl. Will Michel’s hot streak continue? Will the two weeks of rest prove to be exactly what Gurley needed?
Whichever way you are leaning, you can now bet on that over at online sportsbook BetDSI. Here are two Super Bowl LIII prop bets that involve Georgia and the SEC that BetDSI currently has available to wager on:
Which former Georgia Bulldog will have more rushing yards?
