Georgia dominates at SoFi stadium finishing with a trophy after lopsided with over TCU.
INGLEWOOD — Georgia was carried to LAX and its national title defense last week by a Delta plane whose fuselage bore the signature of the man who built the Bulldogs’ first dynasty–Vince Dooley.
In keeping the national title between the hedges to become the first school to successfully defend its crown since Nick Saban’s Alabama did so in 2012, Georgia’s triumph in the College Football Playoff championship game before 72,628 at SoFi Stadium served as a reminder that even in the sport’s most transformative decade one thing remains constant – the season ending with an SEC school lifting the national title game’s gold trophy into a downpour of confetti.
Stetson Bennett’s precision passing and timely running and an overpowering defense that has been a trademark of Bulldog head coach Kirby Smart’s seven seasons at his alma mater Georgia led 38-7 after 30 minutes. The view from the TCU sideline didn’t get any better in the second half. Bennett, a 25-year-old former walk-on nicknamed the “Mailman” because he always delivers, completed 18 of 25 passes for 305 yards and four TDs on the night. He was responsible for 36 Georgia points, equalling a national title game record. The Bulldogs rolled up 589 yards total offense, 485 in the first three quarters.
All of which leaves many in the sport convinced that college football has never been more popular–and never more rudderless. Texas, which already has its own television network, and ancient foe Oklahoma are taking their Red River Rivalry to the SEC.The schools aren’t the only ones on the move or following the money.
