Overview

  • A late false start pushed Tennessee’s potential game-winning 43-yard field goal back, and Josh Heupel opted to kick without resetting the spot; Max Gilbert missed at the end of regulation, made a 42-yarder in OT, and Georgia then sealed it with a 1-yard score.
  • Georgia forced overtime with a fourth-and-6 touchdown from Gunner Stockton to London Humphreys and a two-point pass to Zachariah Branch with just over two minutes left.
  • Stockton completed 23 of 31 passes for a career-high 304 yards and two touchdowns and added 38 rushing yards, drawing postgame praise from Kirby Smart.
  • Tennessee piled up 496 yards as Joey Aguilar threw for 371 yards and four total touchdowns, with Chris Brazzell II posting 177 yards and three scores, while Heupel defended a conservative late series that led only to a field goal.
  • Georgia’s defense yielded big yardage but produced key takeaways with interceptions by Joenel Aguero and KJ Bolden; next up, Tennessee hosts UAB and Georgia has a bye before facing Alabama on Sept. 27.
