Georgia fans crushed by devastating loss, but vow to return to National Championship Game
What a game the National Championship Game turned out to be.
However, with every great game, there can be only one winner, and that wasn’t meant to be for the Georgia Bulldogs on Monday night, as an impressive fourth-quarter comeback spurred Alabama to victory.
The Tide may have won, but the Bulldogs are still feeling good about where they are under coach Kirby Smart, as he led the team to a title game in only his second year at the helm of the program.
Things are looking up for the Dawgs, even after Monday’s devastating loss. After the game, Georgia fans flocked to Twitter to express their undying support for their team:
Still love my dawgs – thanks for one helluva season #GoDawgs

Always proud, no matter what #GoDawgs

Tough loss, but these Dawgs should be so proud. Great game, great season. #GoDawgs

May not of ended the way we wanted it to, but I’m so proud to be a Georgia Bulldog! #GoDawgs

That’s a tough one to swallow. Congrats to Bama in another title though lol. Really wanted to see these seniors go out on top. But once again, congrats to Bama. Hell of a game #GoDawgs

Nobody should hang their heads after this game. Proud of the University, Proud of this team, proud of the coaching staff and proud of the fan base…
This is just the beginning…
You choked the game away! Not ready for prime time with Mark Richts recruits!
Shut up.
There are still Arkansas fans? I figured you all would have given up by now. Good for you for sticking with your garbage team. Good luck on hopefully getting 6 wins next year but hey don’t be too upset if you only get 3 or 4.
I hate Bama with a fiery passion thats hotter than hell. I have to stop being so invested in these kinds of things. Its not good for my health.
Pollock, Smart and Georgia fans are LOLtastic.
Elite Senior returns and they mention the word “dynasty” without ever winning.
It’s embarrassing.
Miracle season is over, and it ended the same way it has for 36 straight years – no Championship.
Georgia is on pace to make it back to the playoff in 2053.
Thanks for the laughs!
2053 good one
UT will never again be top 10 say hi to Nebraska
Actually, UT was ranked in top 10 last season at one point (yes, overrated lol) Sorry y’all lost (I was saying ANYBODY BUT BAMA) but the future looks bright. Enjoy it while it lasts!
So says the guy who’s team in the spring is predicting a huge comeback season and win the East every season this millennium. Lemme guess, it’s on now that Pruitt is in town? Guaranteed playoff team next season?
Who the Muck is this guy? Get out of here, Tennessee is worst team in the SEC, and will be for a very long time.
They aren’t as bad as Missouri our Ole Miss.
You know you can only spell “or” phonetically if you know that “or” is only one syllable, right? Right Mississippi??
You are high. Tennessee didn’t even win a single conference game this year! learn how to English.
Nah, UT hasn’t fallen all the way back to the end of the DOOFUS era. While Botch drove it off a cliff this season, don’t think Pruitt will have as far to go with rebuilding a competitive SEC East team. UF is also regrouping, so good for UGA for a bit. Won’t last, so enjoy it.
Good luck with Derek Dooley. You guys lost to MTSU!
Now Eason is leaving.
It’s already falling apart!
If Jim Chaney is not fired, the Dawgs won’t be back anywhere. He went away from EVERYTHING that worked in the first 3 quarters and GAVE THE GAME AWAY with predictable play-not-to-lose play calling.
He should be fired, Lane Kiffin style, and not be allowed to board the bus back to Athens. Eff Jim Chaney.
If you happen to be a UGA fan and a Falcons fan, I really do feel for you tonight.
Lol! Crappy combination!
I am and it does suck. But thats life as a Georgia sports team fan. You embrace a lot of suck.
At least we are being defeated in CHAMPIONSHIP games. Good luck trying to get to a bowl game next year!
The falcons superbowl prepared me for this. I started drinking early.
Yes, embrace the suck. But hey, I am also a Falcons fan and believe it or not, the Falcons have a better chance of winning it more this year than last because of their defense. In football, defense wins championships.
Great game, UGA. Sad y’all lost, but excited to see your program heading in the right direction.
Keep your chins up, Dawgs. Kirby has y’all moving in the right direction. The SEC haters are in trouble. Bama and UGA are elite and you’ve got Mullin finally with the tools he needs in Florida and Jimbo ready to turn around aTm. I don’t see SEC dominance of the CFP going away anytime soon.
Jimbo now in the SEC. The SEC will get back to being the best conference. As much as I hate to admit it, Florida will too be back in the coming years with Mullen at the helm. I like our future at Georgia. We too will be back. Go Dawgs!
As a Mizzou fan with plenty of experience with what you are feeling right now (flea kicker, fifth down, Tyus Edney, etc, etc) I can honestly say the feeling about this game never goes away, but it does make the wins taste a little better…you just have to wait 7 months to get one.
HUMBLE YOURSELF!
I don’t think they need any encouragement in that department today.
Ah yes. The lowly Tennessee hyenas that come and mock the Lion when he’s down. Keep laughing buddy. 41-0 will seem like mercy after what UGA does to your team next year.
Did not see a throat slash from Bellamy there, Biggie. Do not know why you would say that.
Wow that was a great game. Congrats to both teams. Both are loaded for the next several years. Freshmen taking over. This game could very well be repeated next season.
Bama and Georgia are set to remain strong for the foreseeable future, but my Auburn Tigers will also be there to be the monkey in the wrench for all their plans. Had to use a Diehard reference. LOL!
…or a “Dye-hard” reference, even better. ;)
Hell of a game, Dawgs. Y’all should be proud and excited for what’s the come, no doubt you’ll be back at the ship soon.
That said, Roll Tide!
Thanks RT! It was. Go Dawgs!
