The Georgia Bulldogs are SEC champions for the first time since 2017. Georgia football has lost three SEC championships since it last won the conference title.
The Bulldogs won a national championship in 2021, but the SEC championship eluded the Dawgs. Now, Georgia will likely be the top seed in the College Football Playoff.
Georgia’s 50-30 win over LSU in the SEC championship was not the Dawgs’ best performance of the season. Georgia allowed plenty of passing yards and points to the Tigers, but the Bulldogs did not let LSU make it a two possession game during the second half.
Stetson Bennett and Jalen Carter were outstanding in Georgia’s SEC championship win over LSU. Here’s how Georgia football Twitter reacted to the Bulldogs’ SEC championship:

When Georgia wants to be good in a big game……the Dawgs are simply dominant. Oregon, Tennessee, and now LSU have felt that dominance.

Whoever draws Georgia in the CFP is going to have a really really bad day

TCU has earned a spot in the CFP even if they lose. Stop it.

If the Committee goes insane and puts Bama in over TCU, lil' ole defending National Champs Georgia will be the only non-Blue Blood in the CFP.
