One of the more intriguing matchups will be how Georgia’s two-tight end offensive sets match up against T.C.U.’s 3-3-5 defense, which was built to thwart passing offenses.
By playing with two tight ends, it creates more holes along the line of scrimmage — more options for Georgia running backs and more gaps to plug for the T.C.U. defense.
On paper, it would seem to spell trouble for the Horned Frogs, but they managed to slow Michigan’s power running attack because the Wolverines struggled to find the right defenders to block or to keep them blocked. Michigan did have success through the air, however.
