SEC Network analyst Cole Cubelic shares picks for who will win SEC, national championship
Another college football analyst thinks that 2019 will be Georgia’s year. SEC Network analyst Cole Cubelic shared his picks for all the Power 5 division winners and the College Football Playoff final four on Thursday.
Cubelic has Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs winning the SEC East, conference championship game and national championship game. He has the Dawgs topping SEC West champ Alabama in a rematch in Atlanta. Cubelic predicts Georgia will take down defending national champion Clemson in this year’s CFP championship game in New Orleans.
The former Auburn offensive lineman is known for turning heads with his picks. He took some heat in 2018 for predicting N.C. State would make the final four. His out-of-left-field pick for 2019 is Utah, his predicted Pac-12 champions. Big Ten and Big 12 fans sure won’t like Cubelic’s predicted final four.

That’s bold. Seeing how close the competition’s been between Bama and UGA over the past few years, it’s not outside the realm of possibility. Clemson put together an absolutely perfect game last year for the championship. Hard to see them matching that 2 years in a row – odds are they drop off a bit.
I like the bold predictions. It gets boring seeing the same old mix of Clemson, Alabama, Michigan, OSU, Oklahoma, and UGA everywhere.
There was some idiot on College Football Live yesterday that picked Ohio State and Michigan to make the playoffs. That’s a bold prediction.
I think everyone is missing something here…..Utah?
