What began out because the battle of the sphere targets quickly became a throwing competitors within the fourth quarter that arguably needed to finally end in a pick-six.
And that second got here for Georgia’s Kelee Ringo with lower than a minute to go within the national title recreation.
The Bulldogs have been up by eight factors when the defensive again intercepted Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Younger’s dart, operating it again 79-yards for the title successful landing.
Monday’s win over Alabama marks Georgia soccer’s first national championship since 1980. Stetson Bennett has gone from a former walk-on quarterback to a national champion, and Kirby Sensible grew to become the primary former Alabama assistant coach beneath Nick Saban to beat him.
Momentum shifted in Georgia’s favor as Bennett threw a 40-yard landing cross to Adonai Mitchell for a 19–18 lead within the fourth. The protection held sturdy towards Younger and the Crimson Tide, giving strategy to Bennett’s 15-yard landing cross to Brock Bowers with simply over three minutes remaining.
Then got here Ringo.
Sensible ran down the sideline as Ringo sprinted again, seemingly shouting two phrases on repeat because the defensive star tried to make it to the top zone—down.
