Look: Scenes from Georgia's SEC Championship celebration
ATLANTA, Ga. — Georgia is king of the Southeastern Conference. The Bulldogs grabbed a 50-30 win over LSU on Saturday, moving to 13-0 for the first time in school history and winning the league for the first time since 2017.
The Bulldogs got a huge game from sixth-year senior quarterback Stetson Bennett, who threw for four touchdowns. They also saw Brock Bowers, Ladd McConkey, Kendall Milton, and Kenny McIntosh make big play after big play.
It resulted in quite the celebration afterward with Bennett winning the MVP trophy and the team having a chance to celebrate as the SEC’s blue and yellow confetti fell. DawgsHQ has scenes from that action below.
“We came here with a plan to have a connected assault. We talked about it all week. We wanted our team to stay connected, and they did that. Our team kind of played this game like they played the whole season: unbelievably well in spurts and unbelievably poor in spurts, and answered the bell when they had to.
“I’m proud of ’em. They’ve handled that all year. I want to give a lot of credit to Brian Kelly and the LSU team that never went away, never quit fighting. Had an injured quarterback. They did a really good job of fighting and pushing through.”

“But this has been a different group. You guys have tried to label them, tried to figure ’em out, tried to analyze ’em. They’re not comprehendible. They do what they have to do, and they do it well. They care about each other and they really do it for each other. No greater example of that than these two men sitting next to me who have been part of our program for a long time.” — Georgia head coach Kirby Smart after the game.
“Yeah, winning the SEC is a big deal. This is the best conference in football. National championships is huge and great. That’s our next goal. But SEC is the first goal, second goal after winning the East.
“Winning the SEC championship, there’s only one of those. It’s a banner. It’s the same thing as a national championship, just a little bit smaller scale.”
“So, yeah, it was important for us.” — Georgia QB Stetson Bennett on what winning the SEC means
“I think what they were missing was the culture we were able to create around here, the next-man mentality. Start of the season we had a lot of guys that weren’t able to play. But as the season went on, they gained experience, and I think that helped us out a lot.” — Chris Smith on what Georgia doubters were missing about this team
