Georgia fans frustrated watching the national championship

The Georgia Bulldogs’ reign as back-to-back national champions is over. The Michigan Wolverines defeated the Washington Huskies 34-13 in the national championship in a game that left Georgia fans frustrated.

The national championship was fairly sloppy. Both teams struggled to convert third downs (Washington and Michigan went a combined 3 for 24). The game featured 10 punts, but opened up in the fourth quarter as Michigan finally gained some separation.

Ultimately, Michigan won thanks to a robust effort with 303 yards on the ground. The Wolverines played sound defense on a great Washington passing attack and capitalized on the Huskies’ errors. Michigan deserves a lot of credit because winning a national championship isn’t easy.

However, numerous Georgia players, coaches, fans, and members of the media were left thinking what it could’ve been for the Bulldogs.
