For those who stayed up to watch the entirety of the SEC heavyweight battle between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Alabama Crimson Tide, they were left with their jaws on the floor thanks in large part to Bama’s 17-year-old star wide receiver, Ryan Williams.
The game was one for the ages, as it will no doubt go down as one of the best matchups of the 2024 college football season. At one point, it looked like Alabama would run away with it, as they took a 30-7 lead into the half. But the visiting Bulldogs kept fighting, and by the time there was only 2:31 left in the fourth quarter, they had miraculously taken a 34-33 lead over their bitter conference rivals.
At that moment, it looked like we had just seen one of the greatest comebacks in SEC history, but Alabama’s 17-year-old freshman had other ideas.
Williams was already having himself quite the game, with over 100 yards going into that final drive. But he added another 75 to his total of 177 with this epic game-winning touchdown.
