Georgia Football: Can the Bulldogs Three-Peat as National Champions in…

It took Georgia 41 years to finally win a second national title at the end of the 2021 season. Now, it has taken just 364 short days to win their third. It has now taken 12 hours for people to start to use the word “dynasty” when referring to Kirby Smart’s program. I mean, if last night’s game is any indication, they could even lobby to move to play in the NFL next season.

In case you’re wondering, the last time one program won three straight national titles, it was Minnesota in 1934, ’35, and ’36. But now, after they just de-pantsed TCU by a 65-7 count, the big question is whether or not the Bulldogs can become the first program in 86 years to go back-to-back-to-back. (Doesn’t Pat Riley have a patent on the word “three-peat”?)

And the worse news for SEC rivals and college football in general is that there appears to be zero indication that the Bulldogs are going away anytime soon. Remember last April when the defense had five first-round draft picks and eight draftees overall get pulled into the NFL? Then look what happened after that, the defense hardly had any type of drop-off. Going into this postseason the Junkyard Dogs were allowing just 11.3 points per game and 271 yards per game through their first 12 games. On Monday night, they held TCU to seven measly points.
