Amid Georgia’s historic rout of TCU in the College Football Playoff national championship on Monday night, an awkward moment broke out on ESPN’s halftime show between Alabama coach Nick Saban and UGA alum David Pollack.
With the Bulldogs leading 38–7 at halftime, Pollack took an opportunity to praise Kirby Smart’s program for its remarkable showing over the last two seasons. In doing so, he proclaimed that the top of the college football landscape has changed with Georgia now taking control of the sport, all while Saban was sitting directly to his right.
