Some were dramatic endings, others were dominant performances.

But all of these teams were crowned champions in 2022.

It was a close game in the first half on Jan. 10, but Stetson Bennett and the Georgia Bulldogs got to work against Nick Saban’s group in the second half. They outscored Alabama 27-9 to win the national championship, 33-18.

Bennett threw for two touchdowns, one to Brock Bowers and the other to Adonai Mitchell, while Zamir White rushed for 84 yards with a score. Bryce Young threw for 369 yards for Alabama, but he gave up two interceptions and notched just one passing touchdown.

In just his first season as starting quarterback, Matthew Stafford got his first Super Bowl ring, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals, 23-20, at the Los Angeles Rams’ home SoFi Stadium on Feb. 13.

Stafford threw three touchdowns in the game, as well as two interceptions, on 26 of 40 for 283 yards. Odell Beckham Jr. caught the first touchdown of the game, but tore his ACL later in the first half. That’s when Stafford began relying on star wideout Cooper Kupp even more, as he hauled in the other two touchdowns.
