Bryce Young completed 17 of 28 passes for yards with three touchdowns and an interception. Young connected with Slade Bolden for an eight-yard touchdown pass top open the scoring in the first. Young's nine-yard touchdown pass to Cameron Latu early in the fourth made it , helping to seal the victory and put the Crimson Tide one win away from a second straight championship.
Brooks finished with 66 yards on four catches and Jameson Williams added 62 yards on seven catches. It was the first loss of the season for the senior-laden Bearcats Desmond Ridder went for for yards, while Jerome Ford rushed for 77 yards on 15 carries.
Georgia took down Michigan in the Orange Bowl to advance to the national championship. The Bulldogs jumped out to a lead after the first half and didn't look back. Stetson Bennett hit Brock Bowers with a nine-yard touchdown on Georgia's opening drive for the early lead.
A trick play with wide receiver Kenny McIntosh throwing to Adonai Mitchell for an yard catch-and-score doubled their lead.
After two Georgia field goals and a Michigan field goal, Bennett hit Jermaine Burton for a yard touchdown near the end of the first half to put an early dagger into the Wolverines. Bennett finished the game tossing yards and three touchdowns while James Cook led all receivers in yards with on four catches and a touchdown.
A catch by Jemaine Burton and pass interference call moved them into Alabama territory before Bennett found Adonai Mitchell for a yard touchdown in the corner of the end zone. A two-point conversion attempt failed, making it Georgia with left.
NationalChampionship pic. Georgia was trying to protect its lead early in the fourth quarter when quarterback Stetson Bennett broke the pocket under pressure. Hit as he was in a throwing motion, the ball went forward and tumbled toward the sideline. Brian Branch recovered for the Crimson Tide, though it was unclear what the call was. Referees ruled after a long replay review that the ball went to Alabama at the Bulldogs Four plays later, Bryce Young hit Cameron Latu on third down for a touchdown to push the Crimson Tide ahead with left.
The lone bright spot for the Bulldogs is they stopped the ensuing two-point conversion and kept the score at Just one score away from taking the lead.
Now can their offense do enough to find the end zone? Make that four field goals for the Crimson Tide as yet another drive stalls close to the Georgia end zone. Bryce Young had two throws to put Alabama ahead before Alabama coach Nick Saban decided to kick a field goal and cut his team's deficit to with just under 13 minutes left to play.
Massive possession upcoming for Georgia. Need to take time off the clock and possibly get some points. After a yard run by James Cook put the Bulldogs in scoring position, his senior sidekick Zamir White scored on a 1-yard touchdown run giving the Bulldogs their first lead at with left in the third quarter.
James Cook e a maior corrida feita contra Alabama desde Nick Chubb, em Um prospecto e tanto. Without their two top receivers, the Crimson Tide needed to change some things with their offense starting on their 2.
Offensive coordinator got running back Brian Robinson established on the ground early on the latest drive before mixing in short passes to Robinson and wide receivers. It got the Georgia defense off balance and fatigue seemed to set in. But the Bulldogs did eventually stiffen when Alabama reached their 30 to force a field goal. Will Reichard's attempt was blocked and the score remains in favor of Alabama with left in the third quarter. The Crimson Tide ran 17 plays for 68 yards and took off clock and ended with no points.
Bryce Young made his first mistake of the game, forcing a deep throw to Jahleel Billingsley as Georgia had two people in position to make the play. Christopher Smith made the interception at the Alabama 43, giving the Bulldogs great field position. It's a rare miscue for the Heisman Trophy winner, who entered the game with 46 touchdown passes and just five interceptions.
But with his two best receivers sidelined, he seems to be struggling with the connection to the inexperienced reserves on field. The Crimson Tide's defense quickly got the ball back for Young, forcing a three-and-out by Georgia. A deep punt pinned Alabama on its 2 to start the next possession. We have our first big mistake of the game. Georgia has a short field to work with. They need to capitalize now. Nobody reached the end zone in the first 30 minutes but there were five scoring drives as Alabama had three field goals and Georgia had two, making the score unexpectedly Not that there was supposed to be a shootout.
The running games for both teams were nonexistent, leaving the quarterbacks to make much of the big plays. Bryce Young threw for yards and appeared more comfortable than counterpart Stetson Bennett. The loss of receiver Jameson Williams makes the Crimson Tide thin with experience at the position. That will be something to watch in the second half. Georgia gets the ball to start the second half.
That drive could be critical as field position can be key if the offense continue to bog down. If you like defense and physical play, this game is over you. It's a change from shootouts in previous editions of the title matchups. Welcome to SEC football. The Crimson Tide look poised to extend their lead to 10 after Cameron Latu's yard catch and run put them inside the Georgia However, Latu dropped a sure touchdown on the second snap after his big play.
Alabama was forced to kick its third field goal of the game and increase its lead to with 7 minutes left in the second quarter. It was a big escape for the Bulldogs, who are struggling on offense and couldn't afford to go down 10 points. Instead, it is still a one-score game even though the Crimson Tide have mostly dominated things. Perfect throw by Bryce Young to Cameron Latu for a huge 61 yard gain.
He hit it from 37 yards out. No touchdowns so far as the game nears the midway point of the second quarter. There have been three field goals, however. Will Reichard converted a yard field goal for the last points as Alabama leads The scoring drive was marred by the injury to Crimson Tide leading receiver Jameson Williams on a yard reception that set up the score.
Williams caught yard pass over the middle of the Georgia defense but as he was twisting to avoid the tackle attempts of two defenders he went down holding his knee.
Williams was helped off the field and went to the injury tent on the sideline for evaluation. Besides Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young, Williams was easily the biggest offensive weapon for the Crimson Tide this season with 1, yards and 15 touchdowns entering tonight's game. Ouch Jameson Williams pic. The first signs of life for the Bulldogs offense as Stetson Bennett hits George PIckens with a deep ball for 52 yards to the Alabama They'd get closer to the end zone before the Crimson Tide stiffened and Jack Podlesny kicked a yard field goal to even things at with left in the second quarter.
The pass to PIckens is significant as the deep ball could loosen things up for the Georgia running game that has been bogged down. Bulldogs have 11 yards on eight attempts.
