With just 2:42 remaining on the clock, Georgia took the lead for the first time in the game. Carson Beck found Dillon Bell for a 67-yard touchdown, but the two-point conversion attempt failed.
However, Alabama responded swiftly. Ryan Williams, a 17-year-old sensation, caught a stunning 75-yard touchdown pass from Jalen Milroe, and a successful two-point conversion gave the Crimson Tide a 41-34 lead.

Georgia had one more chance to even the score, but Beck was intercepted, allowing Alabama to kneel out the clock and secure the dramatic victory.
The loss was Georgia's first of the season, while Alabama improved to 4-0. Milroe had an exceptional performance for the Crimson Tide, throwing for 373 yards and two touchdowns and rushing for two more. Williams, despite his youth, made six catches for 177 yards and a touchdown.
Beck, despite turning the ball over four times, managed to throw for 439 yards and three touchdowns. Arian Smith rushed for 132 yards, and Bell added 100 receiving yards.
The game was also notable for the appearance of former President Donald Trump, who received an ovation from the crowd when shown on the jumbotron.
Alabama will travel to Vanderbilt next week, while Georgia will host Auburn. The Bulldogs will look to bounce back from their first loss, while Alabama will aim to continue its winning streak and prove that they are once again a contender for the national championship.
