Georgia for the first time since 1980 clinches a National Championship Vs. The Alabama Crimson Tide. With 54 seconds left in Monday night’s College Football Playoff National Championship presented by AT&T, Georgia cornerback Kelee Ringo intercepted Alabama quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young and returned it 79 yards for a touchdown — this is the longest pick-six in championship game history, cementing the No. 3 Bulldogs’ 33-18 win over the No. 1 Crimson Tide.
Head Coach Kirby Smart “I told the guys in the locker room, just take a picture of this, because I think back to the ’80 championship picture and seeing all those players and the Frank Ros and the Herschel Walkers and all these people that have reached out and said things,” Smart said. “Our guys have accomplished that, something special, and as they say, they’ve become legendary, and I want that for them.”
Alabama and Georgia are without question the power houses of not only the SEC but the entire nation when it comes to recruiting. We plan to see these rivalry continue you on for many many years to come. Congratulations to the Georgia Bulldogs on their Title Win.
