The game that everyone had marked on their calendars lived up to the hype for some.
Saturday's game between Alabama and Georgia was a rematch of last season's SEC title game, which Bama won as the No. 8 team in the country. Georgia had previously been ranked No. 1 with 42 wins out of 43 games, but the Bama win moved them up in the standings. They eliminated Georgia from the College Football Playoff.
Now, this matchup, just like the last one, was just epic.

After trailing by four touchdowns, No. 4 Alabama scored a late touchdown and cruised to a 41-34 victory over No. 2 Georgia. It was a classic match of the moment.
Alabama scored four touchdowns in the first 19 minutes of the game, taking a commanding 28-0 lead, and everyone thought the game was over quickly. However, Georgia fought back until the end.
Georgia scored steadily to make it a 30-15 game, and after Bama kicked a field goal to give it three possessions back, Georgia found the end zone when it desperately needed it. The Bulldogs missed a two-point attempt, but forced a punt and then scored again. Suddenly, Bama's lead was down to just four points.
Georgia then forced another punt, but Bama wasted no time and got the ball back until a timeout with 2:42 left to take the lead. Well, it took Georgia just one play to take the lead when Carson Beck found Dillon Bell for a 67-yard score for a 34-33 lead. Beck's rush on the two-point conversion was short-lived, but it completed the comeback, and Bama, who had an early advantage, suddenly found itself in desperation mode.
No need to worry. It was 17-year-old Ryan Williams who received a 75-yard pass home from Jalen Milroe and completed the two-point conversion, giving Bama a seven-point lead.
The Bulldogs faced a fourth-and-2 with 1:22 left at the Bama 47, Beck found Colby Young for a first down, and three plays later the Bulldogs were in the red zone. However, Beck was intercepted after making his way into the end zone, and the touchback brought Bama to a knee, allowing them to clinch an incredible victory.

After allowing four touchdowns early on, Georgia finally scored a touchdown midway through the second quarter. But then Beck was called for an intentional grounding in his own end zone, resulting in a safety. But apparently, that was all Georgia needed at halftime, despite trailing 30-7.
Beck scored the first score of the third quarter on Arian Smith's 12-yard touchdown and got within 15 yards on the two-point conversion. However, Bama's field goal late in the third quarter made it a three-possession game. On Georgia's ensuing drive, Beck lost a fumble. But they weren't dead yet, and the comeback began on the next drive. But Beck's final turnover came at the worst possible time, as he was unable to get a stop when he needed it most.
The game was Georgia's first loss of the season, which had lost just once in 43 consecutive games, but now has lost two in its last five games. They are 45-3 in their last 48 games, with all three losses coming to Alabama (although one of those wins came against the Crimson Tide in the 2022 National Championship). Bama, on the other hand, improved to 4-0.
Milroe completed 27 of 33 passes for 373 yards, two touchdowns and two runs, while Williams, 17, had six catches for 177 yards and a touchdown. Beck turned the ball over four times, but still threw for 439 yards and three touchdowns. Smith gained 132 yards and Bell added 100 yards.
The appearance of Donald Trump was also a hot topic at this game. The former president and current Republican candidate received applause from fans as he walked the halls and appeared on the jumbotron.
