The 2021 Georgia Bulldogs football team represented the University of Georgia in the 2021 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Bulldogs played their home games at Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia, and competed in the Eastern Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). They were led by sixth-year head coach Kirby Smart. They finished the season with 14 wins and 1 loss (14–1 overall, 8–0 in the SEC). Georgia won the National Championship and was the consensus No. 1 team at the conclusion of the season. The 14 games won by the Bulldogs also set the record for the most wins in a single season in school history.[1]

The Bulldogs made it to the College Football Playoff for first time since 2017. After defeating Michigan in the semifinals, they defeated Alabama to win their first national championship since 1980. This was the first time a No. 3 team has won the CFP National Championship. It also marked the first time in the history of college football since the Associated Press started in 1936 that a college football team had won an AP National Championship after losing their respective conference championship game in the same season.

Previous season

Georgia finished the previous season with a record of 8–2 (7–2 in the SEC) and a Peach Bowl victory. After a Sugar Bowl Victory in the 2019 campaign, Georgia was predicted to be the runner up to Florida in the Eastern Division. Georgia finished the regular season with a 7-2 record. Georgia was ranked No. 9 in the College Football Playoff(CFP) standings and they were chosen to play the No. 8 Cincinnati Bearcats in the 2021 Peach Bowl. The Bulldogs would win the game 24-21. After the victory, Georgia finished with a final ranking of No. 7 in both the AP and Coaches' Polls.
