The Georgia Bulldogs are well-represented at the NFL scouting combine after winning their first national championship in over four decades.

A deep, talented group of receivers came to this week's NFL scouting combine with a simple goal.

The NFL announced that 73 underclassmen have been granted special eligibility for the draft, the fewest in the last seven years.

Alabama once again collected a Southeastern Conference title and two big league-wide individual awards.

John Metchie caught a scoring pass from Bryce Young in the fourth overtime to give No. 3 Alabama a 24-22 comeback victory over rival Auburn on Saturday, rescuing the Crimson Tide’s national title hopes.

Bryce Young passed for a school-record 559 yards and five touchdowns and No. 2 Alabama clinched a spot in the Southeastern Conference championship game with a 42-35 victory Saturday over No. 21 Arkansas.

Bryce Young passed for 371 yards and two touchdowns and ran for two more scores, carrying No. 4 Alabama to a 52-24 victory over traditional rival Tennessee.
