ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — For the second straight year, Athens streets were closed for a parade leading to a celebration at Sanford Stadium for Georgia’s national championship. At the stadium, many fans held up three fingers as they looked ahead to the goal of a threepeat. No team has won three consecutive national championships in the AP poll era, which dates to 1936. Georgia won its second straight national championship despite having a record 15 players selected from their 2021 team in last year’s NFL draft. The Bulldogs clinched the 2022 championship with their runaway 65-7 win over TCU in Monday night’s national championship game.
