Georgia's offense answered an Alabama touchdown in the third quarter of Monday’s National Championship Game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Facing a third-and-11 at their own 20-yard line, quarterback Jake Fromm aired it out to Mecole Hardman who hauled it in and completed the 80-yard touchdown to put the Bulldogs ahead 20-7 with 6:52 left in the quarter. It was Hardman’s second touchdown of the game.
