Top Recruits predict CFP semifinals

Uncommitted five-star athlete Nyckoles Harbor: “Michigan beats TCU by two touchdowns. People aren’t going to like this, but I need Georgia to beat Ohio State and then I got Michigan winning it all.”

Clemson signee Peter Woods: “Georgia is going to sweep the whole thing. They’ll two-peat and then we’re coming next year.”

Alabama signee Richard Young: “Georgia 34-17. Michigan 50-17.”

Georgia signee Samuel M’Pemba: “I’ve got Georgia by 100. Georgia 34-17.

Uncommitted five-star tight end Duce Robinson: “I think Georgia is probably going to win it all. I think they’ll probably beat Ohio State. It’ll be a close game. I got them going all the way. I think if Max Duggan comes out and leads his team the way he has been, TCU can pull it off. Don’t have a score prediction, but I’m interested to see that game.

Texas signee Johntay Cook II: “I got Georgia over Ohio State. Ohio State’s offense is nice. I’m going to say 42-24. I say TCU, but it depends on how Max Duggan plays. If he plays like the Heisman finalist, TCU will score about 40. If he plays like he did against Texas, Michigan is going to win. I got TCU 35 and Michigan 28.”

Texas A&M signee Bravion Rogers: “I got Georgia winning by a blowout. I think Michigan and TCU is probably a close one but I see TCU pulling it out.”

Texas A&M signee defensive lineman David Hicks: “I got Michigan. 34-28. I got Ohio State, they’ve got a lot to prove. It’ll be a close game. Probably something like 38-34.”

Alabama signee Jalen Hale: “I got Georgia, 35-10. I got Michigan, 28-16.

Florida signee Kelby Collins: “Georgia and Ohio State, I have that being close. I’m going to say 24-14 Georgia. I got Michigan blowing them out. I don’t have a score.”

Iowa State signee JJ Kohl: “I’m going to say TCU and Georiga win. For the Michigan vs TCU game, I’m going to say 27-24. For the Georgia and Ohio State game, I’m going to say 42-38 Georgia.”

Michigan State signee Stanton Ramil: “I got Georgia 35-21. I have Michigan 28-14.”

Uncommitted cornerback Ethan Nation: “Georgia is the favorite. I’m from Georgia and it would be wrong for me to go against the Bulldogs. I think I’m going to go with Georgia to win the championship. Georgia 34 Ohio State 14. Georgia has a disgusting defense. They have some dogs. It’s hard playing SEC ball. Michigan is going to dog TCU. I like TCU’s journey and how they popped up on the scene. They lost one game. I feel like that Kansas State game should have just sold it right there.”

South Carolina signee Trovon Baugh: “I got Ohio State, 40 to something. That can go either way. I got Michigan. 38-10.”

Alabama signee Olaus Alinen: “I will say OSU 38-31, and Michigan 46-24.”

Alabama signee Miles McVay: “Michigan and Ohio State.

Arkansas signee Luke Hasz: “I’ve got Michigan in that one…Georgia (in the other).”

Ole Miss signee Suntarine Perkins: “I think TCU is going to go out with a bang… Georgia.”
