How do you make every possible mistake two years in a row? Georgia had multiple chances to pin Alabama deep via punt and screwed it up each time. Scared to throw over the middle so you wing it harmlessly out of bounds. Can't stop a third down from Hurts after stopping virtually all of them for 7 quarters combined last season and this year.
At least I wasn't kidding myself once Georgia butchered the possession deep in Alabama territory while up 28-14. The weaker team never manages to put the game away in that situation, no matter their caliber. Once the third down play was miscommunication despite wide open, and then the kicker predictably missed, the remainder of the game seemed a mere formality.
