The depth of the Dawgs' talent was evident throughout the night as Georgia's defense flew all over the field and stopped an Alabama offense few teams could even slow. Georgia is a team that is so talented, it somehow managed to win a national title using a former walk-on at quarterback. Georgia's pass rush was helped by its run defense: One of the reasons Georgia could get so much pressure on Young was that it could blitz from anywhere it wanted because it knew Alabama couldn't run the ball consistently.
The Tide tried to do so in plenty of different ways but only had inconsistent success. Early in the game, Alabama tried to get Brian Robinson on the edge with tosses and sweeps.
Those didn't work. Georgia loaded the box with defenders, playing only one high safety. Later in the game, the Tide tried to run at the heart of the Dawgs defense and outmuscle it. That didn't work then, either. Alabama finished with only 30 yards rushing on 28 carries, but even if we take away sack yardage Young finished with yards , it managed only 73 yards on 24 carries 3.
Robinson was held to 68 yards on 22 totes a week after tearing Cincinnati's defense apart for yards and 7. He was not overly efficient and held onto the ball for a second longer than he should have before releasing it across multiple plays.
That includes the aforementioned fumble that occurred as he was sacked from behind, a mistake that led to Alabama's lone touchdown of the night.
It was a moment that immediately brought to mind Bennett's turnovers in the SEC title game that ultimately led to Georgia's downfall. They didn't this time.
Instead, Bennett kept his cool and atoned for fumble with two touchdown drives. One ended with a beautiful throw to Mitchell, who made a spectacular grab to secure the six points, while the other was more methodical.
Ironically, it was a drive reminiscent of the one Young led late in the Iron Bowl to lead Alabama to victory over Auburn and keep the Tide in the playoff race. The Jameson Williams injury was massive: It's hard to say whether the outcome would've been different, but you can't ignore what Williams' loss meant to the Alabama offense. Latu stepped up to fill the void, catching five passes for yards and a touchdown, but he doesn't provide the kind of home-run threat Williams offers.
Hall tried to play that role, but he caught only two of the eight passes thrown his way, and his third-quarter drop led to a series of events that turned the game around. Williams' injury was the second straight suffered by one of Alabama's top two wide receivers against Georgia. Once Williams was hurt, Young was down his two best game breakers. Coupled with the absences of two key defensive backs on the other side of the ball, it's only fair to note that the Tide were hardly at full strength in the game.
Like it or not, you may see this game plenty more: This is already the second time we've seen Alabama and Georgia play in the CFP National Championship. I don't think it'll be the last. Rob Sale, who served as offensive coordinator under Billy Napier at Louisiana Lafayette before heading to the Giants as an offensive line coach, will rejoin his former coach at Florida as his OC.
For Georgia football fans, this was the ultimate -- ending a painful, decadeslong title drought against the team that has stood in their way for so long. Alabama QB Bryce Young shouldered much of the blame following Monday night's loss to Georgia in the College Football Playoff National Championship, saying, "We didn't execute, and at the end of the day, that's on me. Alabama wide receiver Jameson Williams, a standout junior on the high-powered Crimson Tide offense, injured his left knee early in the second quarter against Georgia in the CFP title game and did not return to the loss.
For the first time since the season, the Georgia Bulldogs reign supreme in college football. The sports world took to social media to react accordingly. Anyone born the year Georgia last won it all is now in their 40s.

Ours is the early game at 2pm. Be nice to get the dub and then sit back and watch how things develop in the other games. Like x 1.
Dec 21, 3. Interesting that Bama and Ole Miss lost in the same way. Both nearly came back to avoid upsets, but fell short. I don't think the SEC is particularly strong this year.
UK might end up being very good. Bama is showing flaws. SEC is current 4 conference rpi. Agree x 1 Informative x 1. Dec 22, 4. Bama is not quite as awesome as Oats fans would have us believe. Agree x 2. Dec 22, 5.
