The Georgia Bulldogs saw their undefeated streak come to an end in the SEC Championship game against Alabama on Saturday. The Crimson Tide went on to clinch the victory with a 27-24 final score and be crowned as the 2023 SEC Champions.
Nick Saban and his team are one step closer to their goal of making it to the College Football Playoff. However, fans of the Georgia Bulldogs called out the referees for their alleged favoritism, saying that they helped Alabama by making wrong calls in the game.
One angry Bulldogs fan wrote:
"@SEC wow y'all let the referees cheat for Alabama again on fourth down and result was they got a touchdown out of this and then beat Georgia by less than a touchdown."
One seemingly controversial call came in the second quarter when Alabama QB Jalen Milroe tossed a pass to Isaiah Bond that set up the field for a touchdown after two more plays.
However, Georgia fans argued that the ball hit the ground and the catch should have not stood. But the referees decided not to look at the replay and ruled in favor of Bond, which ultimately turned the tide in favor of the Crimson Tide.
Nick Saban leads Alabama to another SEC victory over Georgia
Despite all the doubts that were looming over Nick Saban's career with Alabama after his Week 2 loss to Texas, adding another trophy to the cabinet might be the best way to answer all his critics.
The Crimson Tide have remained undefeated since Week 2 and have improved with each passing week. Now, with another SEC title in the bag, the Crimson Tide have created chaos for the selection committee. Will Alabama emerge as a national title contender this year?
