Georgia vs. Alabama: How to watch, TV channel, streaming, start time, players to watch and stats

Week 5 of the 2024 College Football season brings a potential National Championship game preview, as the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide host the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs in a battle between SEC heavyweights.

Both teams were idle in Week 4, which means the players should feel fresh entering this matchup.

So far this season, Bama has beaten Western Kentucky 63-0, South Florida 42-16, and Wisconsin 42-10. Their start to the season has seen them move up one spot after they were fifth in the preseason AP Poll.

Georgia began the season with a huge 34-3 win over then-No. 14 Clemson and then blew out Tennessee Tech 48-3, but a narrow 13-12 win over Kentucky in Week 3 saw the Bulldogs fall from first in the AP Poll to No. 2.
