    The ESPN "College GameDay" crew was previewing the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide versus the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs in Week 5; one of the biggest college football games of the 2024-25 season.

    While the panel discussed the matchup, they welcomed Ole Miss Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin on air for an informal interview.

    After Kiffin shared a few points on the Rebels' matchup with the Kentucky Wildcats in Week 5, he revealed his prediction for the Georgia-Alabama matchup.

    Kiffin believes home field advantage will play a big role in the game, so he picked the Crimson Tide to steal the victory as one-point underdogs against UGA.

    Kiffin previously coached with the Crimson Tide from 2014-16. While he was a member of the coaching staff, under Nick Saban, Kiffin served as the offensive coordinator and quarterback's coach.

    While he's looking to secure a national title with the Rebels, Kalen DeBoer, Alabama's first-year head coach, is attempting to do the same with the Crimson Tide.

    DeBoer has the Crimson Tide in a strong position to defeat Georgia in Week 5 and climb up the college football rankings.

    Alabama enters the game at 3-0, having defeated the Wisconsin Badgers, USF Bulls and Western Kentucky Hilltoppers.

    They're playing behind the success of quarterback Jalen Milroe, who's produced eight touchdowns and 590 passing yards with a 67.3 completion percentage this season.
