I couldn't stay up past regulation.   Did the ref's factor in UGA's victory?   No penalties against GT until the 4th quarter and then a very suspect PI call (that replay couldn't even point out) to give UGA 6 attempts at a touchdown from inside the 10 followed by 3 more penalties against GT on the following drives.

I feel like the refs helped UGA, but I’m a Bama fan who needed UGA to lose for Bama to have even a chance at the playoffs.

GT had a 27-20 lead around the 2:00 mark  on a 3rd and 1, Haynes King appeared to pick up the yardage for a first down, but he fumbled the ball on the hit. However, the hit appeared to include the crown of the UGA defender’s helmet directly into Haynes King’s facemask. This appeared to me to be textbook targeting by making forcible contact with the crown of the helmet, which would have overturned the fumble and given GT a first down.

The refs missed a blatant hold against UGA on their drive to tie the game. The hold occurred on 3rd and 9 and allowed Beck to scramble for a first down at about the 3 yard line. They later scored to tie, but a 3rd and 19 would have been much harder to convert. 

There was also DPI on a 4th and Goal earlier in the game. The ball appeared to be tipped, which would have negated the DPI and given the ball to GT. The spin on the ball seemed to change after Beck let it go but the play wasn’t even reviewed. 

All that being said, GT had opportunities to win the game but couldn’t get it done. Their coaching decisions in OT were highly questionable. For instance, Brett Key didn’t even know the OT rules, calling for one after GT’s second OT touchdown (required to go for two in second OT).  The play calling also went away from everything that worked throughout the game.

Beat Clemson.

Injury report out, hopefully Clemson is going to actually get some guys back today and put them on the field to make it a game today.  Only one OL actually ruled out but it’s still a pretty big question mark of who actually can go today.  They need their offensive lineman to play

Appreciate Matt Rhule winning me a lot of money last night. You’d figure that by now he’d be humble but nope. Still a foolish dude that thinks way too highly of himself.

Watch Georgia lose this one, but win the SEC title game lol. Three loss teams have no business in the 12 team field.

it’s been pretty widely mentioned at this point that three loss teams have been in the twelve team field in a majority of seasons since the advent of the bcs.

not even sure why people are still saying this at this point

He is like high school Cam or better right now. I mean he isn't Auburn Cam but he is coming on. I want the guy, looking at '26.

Sellers is definitely a prospect to keep an eye on for sure. He checks a lot of boxes. Very interested to see how he develops.

They called a phantom PI on 4th and Goal - that would have been the end of the game. They also didn't call targeting when a Georgia LB lit up the GT QB and caused a fumble.

Absolutely disgraceful decisions, both.

And there is orange in the endzone!

Inside the one season, massive growth.

You'll get Cade K from Clemson next year and like it
