INDIANAPOLIS — Georgia football’s 33-18 College Football Championship Game win over Alabama will be immortalized in several mediums, with Kelee Ringo’s game-clinching interception serving as the “Oil Painting Moment.”

There were several heroes for the Bulldogs as they doggedly stayed close by fiercely defending their end zone and doing just enough on offense to stay close.

Game-Defining Moment One

The game turned with 3:18 remaining in the third quarter when Jalen Carter blocked a 48-yard field goal attempt one play after freshman WR Agiye Hall let a third-and-11 Bryce Young pass slip through his fingers inside the Georgia 5.

The next two plays demonstrated how football is a game of opportunities and momentum, as Carter leaped high into the air for the block, and defensive player of the game Lewis Cine pounced on the football at the UGA 20-yard line.

Georgia went on offense and on its first play handed off to James Cook, who had 2 carries for 4 yards to that point in the game.

Game-Defining Moment Two

Cook took the handoff deep in the backfield and bolted through a well-defined hole up the middle before cutting back on Alabama defender DeMarcco Helms and racing 67 yards before getting caught by safety Jordan Battle at the Tide’s 13-yard line.

Three plays later, Zamir White punched in the first TD of the game from 1-yard out and gave the Bulldogs their first lead of the game at 13-9 with 2:10 left in the third quarter.

The teams traded the lead in the fourth quarter, Alabama getting its only touchdown of the game on a 16-yard drive after a Stetson Bennett fumble, before Brock Bowers took a short screen pass 15 yards for a TD that gave the Bulldogs a 26-18 lead with 3:33 left.

Young, the Heisman Trophy winner and the leading passer in the Power 5 ranks with 4,872 yards and 47 TD passes, went to work on the ensuing drive intent on tying the game.

Young completed four consecutive passes to the Georgia 44, sending the Bulldogs’ fans closer to the edge of their seats.

But on first-and-10, Georgia safety Christopher Smith broke up a pass, and Young was off-target on his next throw, setting up a third-and-10 pass.

Ringo, who would have given up a TD pass if not for Travon Walker tracking down Alabama receiver Agiye Hall and limiting the Tide to a 24-yard gain, was in the right place at the right time.

Game-Defining Moment Three

Ringo leaped high to incredible intercept Young’s second interception of the night and only his seventh in 15 games this season, and raced down the right sideline for a touchdown and a place in Georgia history.

“Man, that was a heck of a play,” Walker said. “Kelee showed up in a big-time game when he really needed to and closed things out.”

Kirby Smart shared this thought when Ringo intercepted the ball, which was much the same as the Georgia fans around him.

“I felt like we had won the national championship.”
