Georgia turned what looked like a Friday night massacre by Georgia Tech into a miraculous Bulldog comeback win, 44-42, in eight overtimes.
The Bulldogs pulled out the victory after overcoming 20-6 and 27-13 fourth quarter deficits and pulled it out when freshman Nate Frazier ran up the middle for the mandated two-point conversion.
It came after a seventh overtime when Carson Beck was stopped on a design run up the middle and Smael Mondon was flagged for pass interference on a pass, giving the Yellow Jackets the ball at the 1 ½-yard line but CJ Allen stopped Haynes King’s run.
Allen then applied pressure on King, forcing an incomplete pass when the Yellow Jackets went first in the eighth overtime.
The Bulldogs orchestrated the late-game comeback as Beck hit Dominic Lovett on a 17-yard touchdown with 3:39 to go in regulation and then again on a 3-yard scoring strike with 1:01 to go.
Georgia safety Dan Jackson set up the final score when he jarred the ball loose from King with two minutes to go, giving the Bulldogs the ball at the Yellow Jacket 32 after it was recovered by Chaz Chambliss.
Georgia moved to 10-2 while the Yellow Jackets fell to 7-5 just three weeks after upsetting a No. 4 Miami.
The Bulldogs now advance to the SEC championship next week and still have a chance to get into the 12-team College Football Playoff if it loses as a three-loss team.
