The Ridley family had to have been proud watching the National Championship Game.
Leading up to the game, Alabama’s Calvin Ridley and Georgia’s Riley Ridley didn’t speak to one another, ESPN announced during the broadcast Monday night. They both were so focussed on this game, and they knew they would have a moment after the game.
While Alabama’s elder Ridley will likely be a first-round pick of the 2018 NFL Draft (if he decides to leave school early), it was the younger Ridley who had the better game. Georgia’s Ridley caught six passes for 82 yards, while Alabama’s Ridley caught just four passes for 32 yards but added one TD.
Following the game, the brothers swapped uniforms in an amazing moment neither will ever forget.
