Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett fired two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter to help lift the Bulldogs to their first national championship since 1980, beating Alabama 33-18.
After a questionable fumble call that led to an Alabama score earlier in the period, Bennett would regroup and toss a 40-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Adonai Mitchell to put the Bulldogs back up. Bennett would strike again later in the fourth with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Brock Bowers.

The extra point put Georgia up 13-9 with 1:20 left in the third quarter.
On the following drive, Young would connect with wide receiver Agiye Hall for 28 yards to set up a first-and-goal from the 5-yard line. However, Alabama would fail to punch it in and settle for its fourth field goal of the game and cut the deficit to 13-12.
The questionable fumble call came in the fourth quarter. Alabama was able to get some pressure on Bennett and it appeared he was able to throw the ball away before he was tackled for a loss.

The ball bounced away and into the hands of Alabama's Brian Branch, who then stepped out of bounds. The officials would rule that the ball was actually fumbled by Bennett and recovered by Branch before the defender stepped out of bounds.

Bennett would show some resiliency and put together a few solid drives that would end in scores. Georgia outscored Alabama 27-9 in the second half.
Young was 35-for-57 with 369 passing yards, a touchdown pass and two interceptions. Brian Robinson Jr. finished with 68 yards on 22 carries. The Crimson Tide offense took a hit when receiver Jameson Williams left with a knee injury and it may have altered the way the offense played down the stretch.
