Monday night’s resounding victory over TCU in the College Football National Championship means the Georgia Bulldogs join a very short list of teams that have managed to win back-to-back titles. In the BCS and CFP era, only USC and Alabama have done it.
a new dynasty
A new dynasty is brewing in NCAA football. The Georgia Bulldogs are CFP National Champions for the second year in a row. A junior college transfer quarterback has led the Bulldogs to an undefeated season and they are back on top of the college football world. Stetson Bennett and his head coach Kirby Smart reigned supreme Monday night as the Bulldogs pulverized the TCU Horned Frogs 65-7.

TCU was in the game for a short time, but Bennett put them on the sword quickly and smashed their hopes reasonably early. Bennett, who was responsible for six total touchdowns in the game, tying a CFP-era record, had the Bulldogs up 38-7 at the half and Texas Christian’s hopes of pulling off an upset were dashed.
Bennett’s scene call
His finishing touch came in the fourth quarter at a moment the 25-year-old said he would never forget. It was also a performance he should never forget, and a story to go down in history.

Bennett came from junior college and was a freshman at Georgia when he first got there. He waited a few years before finally getting started after JT Daniels was injured in 2021. In that time, Bennett went 29-3 and now has two national championships and an SEC title to his name.
Now that his time in Georgia has come to an end, Bennett can possibly look towards a professional career. Whichever NFL roster he lands on, at least he’ll have a proven winner with a big chip on his shoulder.
Back to back
Georgia became the first team to go back-to-back in the CFP National Championship since Alabama in 2012. The only other team to do so in the BCS or CFP era was USC in 2005 and 2006. Georgia has already settled as the favorite . with sportsbooks to make three in a row next year.
