INGLEWOOD, Calif. — It was over long before it actually ended. But when it did, the Georgia Bulldogs reveled.
Smoke hovered over the field at SoFi Stadium as they lit their celebratory cigars. College Football Playoff-branded confetti trickled onto their shoulders, undeterred by the misty weather. They jumped in each other’s arms, danced with newspapers announcing their second straight title, tossed on-field souvenirs to their families in the stands and began declaring a three-peat future for their budding dynasty.
