[@Anonymous-lt8lb]

Georgia alum here... I predicted Alabama to win the national title preseason, but then I backed off my prediction after watching Milroe the first 3-4 games. But it appears they are finding their stride late in the season which matters most. I did not have a good feeling heading into the SECCG, but how the game turned out was NOT how I thought it would play out. To win, I thought Milroe needed to play his best game but Georgia kept him check most of the night with very avg numbers. What did play out the way I thought it would was the line of scrimmage. Alabama just has "different" players on both sides of the ball and they took control of the LOS for most of the game. This being said, there is a little bit of luck that goes into winning a national title. Alabama needed it the week prior to escape with a win at Jordan Hare and they took advantage of uncharacteristic unforced errors by Georgia in the SECCG (false start/missed FG & turnovers) - things that Georgia has kept to a minimum all year long. Those 2 things were the actual difference in the game. I'm pulling for Alabama the rest of the way because I felt that the SECCG was the defacto national championship game. I hope Alabama beats the brakes off Michigan and Harbaugh like we did 2 years ago. However, this is NOT the Alabama teams of old. They are beatable, but I am pulling for them to win it all. Go SEC!!!!

[@Rageousss]

Jalen and the WR’s affected themselves more than Georgia did. - 7 Drops with 2 being TD drops. - Jalen is the best QB in CFB on Passes 20+ Yards and he threw his worst one on the season to Burton who cooked his DB for 5 Years that ended up being incomplete. - He missed 5 Wide Open Players for TD’s by not noticing them Open and threw elsewhere. - And then 4 Dropped interceptions with 2 being likely Pick 6’s I could keep going.

Alabama deserved to win the game. They were the better team on both lines of scrimmage and made fewer mistakes than Georgia did. Georgia made more self inflicted mistakes in a single game Saturday than I’ve seen them make in a single game since 2019 vs South Carolina and when you do that against a team as good as Alabama you’re gonna pay for it. Did the refs make some bad calls that hurt UGA? Yes. Did Mims being out and Bowers and McConkey clearly not fully healthy hurt UGA? Yes. But that’s how football works sometimes and UGA just simply didn’t capitalize on opportunities as well as Bama did and that’s why they lost. The run was gonna end eventually but it was truly magical. 3peating was always gonna be difficult and UGA will ultimately fall slightly short of it, but I’m proud of the resiliency UGA showed in the 4th quarter, they made Bama have to play a full 60 minutes and they did. GG to Bama, for as much as Kirby has accomplished over the past few years, there’s no doubt Saban is the greatest coach in history. Good luck in the playoff. Go Dawgs.

@@Bama-SportsGuyExactly. Someone compiled the data on this a few years ago, and found that Bama’s opponents were flagged for offensive holding fewer than any other team’s opponents in the country by a wide margin. This was true for every year over about a 10-year period. And during most of this time, Bama’s defense totally overmatched most opposing offensive lines, and we regularly saw our DLs having their jersey collars or armholes pulled down to their waists, or being tackled from behind. It was almost like they were just trying to give the other teams a chance.

Bama def had the better roster, best blue chip ratio in CFB history. UGA had just been utilizing their players better throughout the season and Saban found a way to utilize his talent towards the end. Both great teams though, and I think that was the national championship game

[@MrBlarginFlarg]

Bama was just way better at every position, including coaching, and it wasn't even close. Kirby needs to take a good look at his team and program and make some serious changes if he wants to contend next year (Bobo isn't the guy and never will be). Milroe is just a different beast and has grown so much this year whereas Beck is just another average at best game manager QB that UGA loves to have for whatever reason. They'll need better QB play and way better WRs if they ever want to win another Natty. Good job Bama, better luck next time Dawgs.

Y’all wanna talk about the catch being reviewed what about when Milroe was called down when he wasn’t down or when UGA got a phantom call against Bama, but no one wanna talk about that both teams had controversial calls, you uga fans are deceptive when y’all team lose all think excuses can be made, but when the opposing team loses its different it don’t work that way, you can comment about injuries and flags all u want, but bama had the same controversy so keep crying if you want nothings gonna change the outcome

I agree Saban is the GOAT but you are dumber than half the inbreds in Alabama if you think the refs didn’t make more than a 3 point difference in this game. Sure, Bama won in the trenches. Georgia was also out-coached. But you take away 4th down dropped ball, nonexistent Horse collar, and throw a flag on the missed face mask and Georgia literally wins. I won’t bring up injury excuses like Bama fans have for the last two years because injuries are part of football. Unlike one-sided officiating.

Georgia taking down Ga. This was by getting out Coached with a stupid game plan early. Then penalties, missed field goal , and defensive dumb ass moments as when receivers standing uncovered. Also getting their head pushed back on the O line and stupid use of hurt players. The record of 29 good and 1 clunker isn't that bad.

@@jky3889 If Milroe is on, Alabama will beat Michigan decisively but fortunately for Michigan, Milroe hasn't proven that he can be consistently accurate. The problem for Michgan is that Milroe's decision making has improved dramatically and he has so many other positive qualities that Alabama can win without Milroe being on as long as he keeps the mistakes to a minimum. I don't think Michigan can win without their QB playing his best game and making almost zero mistakes.

I've watched every Bama game this season and honestly, they are pretty mid. Their entire success relies on how Milroe plays. He's kind of a spaz. He leaves the pocket too early.
