It Had To End This Way For Georgia, Finishing The Season With Redemption Against Alabama
We all took a deep look at this Georgia team this season and wondered whether they would be able to finish off a 12-0 regular season in which they dominated opposing SEC teams with ease. Everyone watching or covering the team wondered what would happen if Georgia let it slip away one more time. Well, the thoughts of a collapse finally escaped the air on Monday night, as Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs won their inner battle and finished what they started by defeating Alabama 33-18 and breaking a 41-year national title drought.
Towards the end of this season, many wondered where the offense would come from if they got into a battle with an opponent that could hang with them for four quarters. We witnessed the first sign of a crack in the armor in December, when Georgia fought Alabama for an SEC Championship and lost. The Bulldogs knew who they wanted to play for a National Championship, if they had the opportunity. The season would've felt incomplete if Georgia had faced any other opponent. Kirby Smart shared this sentiment while meeting with the media on Tuesday morning.
