A dominant first half from No. 1 Georgia against No. 3 TCU in Monday night’s College Football Playoff national championship game led to a hilariously tense moment between Alabama coach Nick Saban and UGA great David Pollack at halftime.
With the Bulldogs leading 38–7 at the break, Pollack took a moment to praise their imposing performance with the reigning champions presumably closing in on their second consecutive national title. He then took it a step further by declaring Georgia’s continued dominance proves the program has taken over college football, much to the chagrin of Saban who sat to his immediate right.
“We love the Cinderella story and we love when this comes about but this isn’t really the Cinderella ending,” Pollack said. “Georgia, obviously, we’ve seen from the past couple seasons now, really, they’ve taken hold of college football. Unbelievable job.”
