Alabama strikes first with a Will Reichard FG, leads Georgia 3-0

Alabama strikes first in the CFP title game, leading Georgia 3-0.

Thanks to a Will Reichard 37-yard field goal, Alabama takes an early 3-0 lead over the Georgia Bulldogs.

The Tide avoided disaster earlier in the drive after what appeared to be a sack-fumble returned for a touchdown by the Bulldogs. After video review, it was decided that Bryce Young had control of the ball and was moving his arm forward and that resulted in an incomplete pass.

Young went 5-9 for 45 yards on the Tide’s first drive of the game, helping Alabama drive into scoring range to set up the Reichard attempt.
