With a touchdown in the fourth quarter, Georgia made history again. . Scoring 65  points sets the record for most points scored in a national championship game. 

The “Dawgs” made this win look easy.

The 31 point differential was the greatest in a national championship since 2002. 

Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett ended his career the way anyone would want to, with a curtain call and fans bowing down. He shared after the game that “That was special. I’ll remember that for the rest of my life”. Bennett joined as a walk-on, went to junior college, then came back to UGA as the second string. Following an injury to their number one guy, Bennett found himself leading his team to their first title in 40 years. This season, Bennett added to his legacy in Athens as a Heisman finalist leading his team to an undefeated season and yet another national championship win.
