The Georgia Bulldogs lost to Alabama 41-24 in the 2021 SEC championship. Alabama quarterback Bryce Young shredded the Georgia defense.
However, the narrative changed in the 2021 national championship. Georgia bounced back after Stetson Bennett had a fumble in the fourth quarter. Bennett led the Bulldogs down the field on a pass-heavy drive. Facing second-and-18 on Georgia’s next drive, Bennett connected with Adonai Mitchell on a 40-yard touchdown pass. Georgia never looked back.
Georgia’s defense forced a three-and-out on Alabama’s next drive. Next, UGA’s offensive line dominated Alabama as the Dawgs drove the ball into the red zone behind a spirited rushing attack. Bennett connected with Brock Bowers on a touchdown to build a 26-18 lead.
The Dawgs needed to stop Bryce Young and Alabama to win a national championship. Young and the Crimson Tide drove the ball to near midfield before he threw a third-down pick six to UGA’s Kelee Ringo. Georgia wins 33-18.
