13) Georgia 33, Alabama 18:
? Dawgs win their first national title in 41 years.
? Game was 9-6 Alabama at halftime; all field goals.
? Georgia ended game on 20-0 run over last 8:04 of game.
? Alabama was 9-20 on third down, Georgia 4-12.
? Crimson Tide threw 57 passes, ran ball 28 times.
? 79-yard pick-6 salted game away with 0:54 left.
12) Georgia QB Stetson Bennett was a walk-on at one point, which seemed surprising; found out last night his dad owns seven pharmacies in Georgia, which is why he turned down offers for scholarships elsewhere to be a walk-on at his preferred school.
11) The day after the NFL regular season ends is a rough day for coaches who lose their jobs; this year was no exception.
? Vikings fired Mike Zimmer
? Bears fired Matt Nagy and their GM
? Dolphins (surprisingly) fired Brian Flores
? Broncos fired Vic Fangio
? Lions fired offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn.
? Giants? GM Dave Gettleman either retired or was fired.
10) Patrick Mahomes/Aaron Rodgers are bad for coaches? job security:
? Over last 18 months, every other team in AFC West has fired its coach.
? Over last 18 months, every other team in NFC North has fired its coach.
In other words, its kind of important to have a good quarterback.
9) Dallas Cowboys went 13-4 ATS this year, after going 5-11 ATS last year.
8) When Raiders made the playoffs Sunday night, they became the first team since the 1961 Houston Oilers to make the players after an in-season coaching change.
Back in ?61, Oilers fired Lou Rymkus after starting 1-3-1; they promoted Wally Lemm to head coach and went unbeaten the rest of the way, beating the San Diego Chargers 10-3 in the AFL title game.
7) Seattle Seahawks went 0-5 this season in games decided by 3 or less points; they could jump back into contention. Teams that win/lose lot of close games one year, tend to go the other way the next season.
6) If you know me or read this site a lot, you know I like trends, but this one makes me queasy, very queasy.
Last five times divisional rivals met in this round of the NFL Playoffs, the road team won every time, with the underdog covering all five games.
Like I said, very queasy. 2012 was last time the home side won a divisional rematch in a Wild Card game.
5) Last three years in this round of playoffs, #6-seeds are 5-1 SU vs #3-seeds; #5-seeds are 4-2 SU vs #4-seeds.
4) Was good to see Klay Thompson play basketball Sunday night; he scored 17 points in 20:00, his first NBA game in 941 days. Golden State is already 30-9; now they figure to get even better with Thompson back in the rotation.
3) In college basketball, Baylor Bears are 15-0, the first national champ to be 15-0 the following season since 2011.
2) Sunday night?s Raider-Charger game was fascinating, an overtime game with both teams? seasons on the line, with the Steelers dreading a tie game from 2,000 miles away. The tie game damn near happened; Raiders could?ve screwed the Steelers big time by taking a knee, playing for the tie, but then they would?ve had to play the Chiefs this week.
Raiders played Kansas City twice this year, lost 41-14/48-9. No way they wanted to play them again. Playing Cincinnati will be a tough game, obviously; they lost 32-13 to the Bengals in Week 11.
1) One thing for sure, Chargers/Bengals are both set at QB for the next 10-12 years, which is very good news for Brandon Staley/Zac Taylor. Coaches with really good QB?s have very excellent job security, although Staley may have to stop going for it on 4th-and-2 from his own 18-yard line, if he wants a long head coaching career.

Wednesday?s 6-pack:
Teams that hit the most HR?s at home last year:
153? Baltimore
143? LA Dodgers
138? Cincinnati
134? Chicago White Sox
121? LA Angels
118? Chicago Cubs
Quote of the Day
?I think he is one of the more disrespected reigning MVPs that I can think of in terms of the attention. But if you open up the dictionary, look up the word consistency, there?s going to be a picture of Nikola there.?
Nuggets coach Michael Malone, talking about Nikola Jokic
Wednesday?s quiz
Seth Curry of the 76ers played three years of college ball at Duke, after transferring from which school?
Tuesday?s quiz
Mark Richt was Georgia?s football coach before Kirby Smart.
Monday?s quiz
Jeff Fisher was the Tennessee Titans? coach in their one Super Bowl.
*******************************
Wednesday?s Den: Mid-week musings??.
13) Stanford 75, USC 69
Texas Tech 65, Baylor 62:
Night started with two unbeaten teams left in the country; now there are none.
12) St Bonaventure 80, LaSalle 76 OT:
? In a 45:00 game, Bonnies? subs played a TOTAL of 3:00. Three kids played all 45:00.
? Bonnies outscored LaSalle 18-2 on the foul line.
? Explorers led by 12 with 13:50 left to play.
11) Marquette 87, DePaul 76? FS1 had both coaches miked for this game, with very few commercial breaks. Excellent broadcast; you got to see parts of the halftime talks, huddles during timeouts, a good peek behind the curtain of what goes on.
10) The term ?student-athlete? makes my skin crawl; it seems so phony, so patronizing. Coaches don?t get fired if players get bad grades, they get fired if the team loses too much. The kids, like it or not, are athletes first, then hopefully students, but except for probably the Ivy League, it isn?t an equal thing.
9) Speaking of coaches getting fired, Giants told Joe Judge to take a hike; they were 10-23 in his two seasons as coach. Now the new GM, whoever he is, will pick the new coach.
In the last three days, three NFC coaches have already cleaned house, firing the coach and GM; Chicago, Minnesota and now the Giants.
8) There was an interesting thread on Twitter Tuesday about a guy who once made the baseball team?s traveling squad at USC because he could steal signs. Seriously.
USC got to the College World Series that year, and the guy, who was a marginal player, wound up in the major leagues, pitching five years in the majors. His dad was a good major league pitcher and now this guy is Director of Pitching for the San Francisco Giants, so he made a career for himself, because he had a knack for stealing signs when he was 20.
7) Hey, baseball labor negotiations are starting up again Thursday, six weeks after the lockout started. Hopefully these people, who all make a boatload of money, can agree how to divide it up to everyone?s satisfaction, so we can start thinking about the 2022 season.
6) Orioles are moving the left-field wall at Camden Yards back, and they?re raising it from 7-feet high in some spots, to 12-feet high, which will hurt hitters/help pitchers.
5) College football ended Monday night, but for the coaches, their work continues; Signing Day is three weeks from today, February 2, so from then until now, recruiting becomes the thing to do, because recruiting is a 24/7/365 thing in college football.
4) Alabama had seven players enter the transfer portal Tuesday, including Paul Tyson, one of their backup quarterbacks. Tyson has three years of eligibility remaining.
3) So far this recruiting season, 37 of the top 101 recruits who have signed chose either Texas A&M, Alabama or Georgia; the SEC is crushing recruiting, which is why they?re reluctant to expand the college football playoff to 12 teams. Why wreck a good thing?
2) Meanwhile, the Pac-12 hasn?t had a team in the 4-team national playoff since 2016, so they want/need the playoff to be expanded. Pac-12 teams have also lost 11 consecutive bowl games; I?m thinking this is bad karma because the Pac-12 Network isn?t on DirecTV, but that?s just me.
1) Alabama WR Jameson Williams tore his ACL Monday night during the national title game; unsure if he go to the NFL, where his draft status has to have suffered, or if he?ll go back to Alabama and play next year.
You wonder if his injury becomes a cautionary tale for other pro prospects; lot of money out there to be had.
