Overview
- Georgia won the SEC Championship 28-7 to move to 12-1, capturing a second straight conference crown and its first title-game win over Alabama under Kirby Smart, who now has four SEC titles and the program’s 16th overall.
- Gunner Stockton completed 20 of 26 passes for 156 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and was named game MVP, adding 39 rushing yards.
- Key momentum swings came from Cole Speer’s blocked punt that set up a short-field touchdown and Daylen Everette’s interception that preceded another Georgia score.
- Georgia’s defense stifled Alabama, holding the Crimson Tide to negative rushing yards and limiting Ty Simpson to 19-of-39 passing for 212 yards with one touchdown and one interception as Alabama fell to 10-3 and awaits its CFP fate.
- On3’s NIL valuations underscore an off-field contrast, with Simpson estimated around $2.3–$2.5 million compared with Stockton’s roughly $823,000, even as Georgia controlled the rematch.
