First Quarter: Tennessee 10, Georgia 7
D1 (TN) -23: 10 plays, 77 yards, 3:11……..TOUCHDOWN
Hooker misses Jones on second play. Wide open, just a bit too far on the throw. Hooker picks up first down on 3rd & 5 with 15-yard run. Small trucks a DB on next play for nice gain of 9. Hyatt two catches on drive in for Jones at slot. Payton draws DPI on ball into the end zone – easy call on a good ball. Kelee Ringo was just beat. Great play-call for 9-yard TD pass to Jones, on third down. Bunch formation close to LOS, Tillman goes up seam, Fant & Jones block in first before Jones peels out……TOUCHOWN (Vols 7-0) (first 1Q TD allowed by Georgia defense all year)
D1 (Ga) -22: 6 plays, 78 yards, 2:28……..TOUCHDOWN
Bennett finds Jackson for gain of 19 on first play – throwing into the DB blitz. Bennett runs for first down on first third down. Vols had both Taylor and Young in C-gap. Taylor (I’d assume) should have stayed outside on CB blitz. Cook scores on 39-yard run. Goes through left A-Gap. Banks gets washed out. Beasley nowhere for bend back as he was paused – waiting for Bennett to not pull on option……..TOUCHDOWN (7-7)
D2 (TN) -25: 3 plays, 9 yards, 1:32………PUNT (Brooks, 42 yds)
Payton injured on first play, screen gain of 8 yards. Does not return. Beautiful play-design form Heupel. Sends H-back (Warren) in motion and it’s 3-aganst-2 to the short side of the field. Warren and Jones block it well. Georgia linebackers owned that drive. Dean made the hit on Payton and crushed Hooker on 3rd & 1 run. Tindall cleaned Hooker up on third down run. Georgia defense made two stops on 2nd & 1 (Small) and 3rd & 1 (Hooker). Got to find a way to get one yard on two plays……PUNT
D2 (Ga) -29: 3 plays, 1 yard, 2:13………..PUNT (Camarda, 56 yds)
Matthew Butler barrels through the OL to bring down Stetson on first down – loss of eight. Only the sixth sack given up all season by the Bulldogs.

Georgia throws screen on 3rd & 22, Banks seals off outside and makes tackle prior to sticks……PUNT
D3 (TN) -17: 13 plays, 76 yards, 3:47………FIELD GOAL (McGrath, 24 yds)
Hooker completes first five passes of drive; goes 7/10 on drive. Hooker fumbles after run following near sack (Carvin beat), but call is reversed – no fumble. Tennessee recovered, anyway. Carvin called for holding – Devonte Wyatt is killing him this drive. Kenrick called for DPI on play where he and Tillman were getting after it. Tillman made catch anyway for 29-yd gain. Kendrick held, Tillman threw him down. Could have gone either way. Hooker fires high to Fant in end zone, but only to where he could get it. Hooker fires high again on third down, this time it’s not even close….Vols settle for 24-yd chip shot from McGrath……FIELD GOAL (Vols 10-7)
D3 (Ga) -25: 3 plays, 5 yards, 1:32…….PUNT (Camarda, 45 yds)
Second-consecutive 3-and-out. Vols playing the run well. Banks made two tackles on drive. Bennett missed badly on third down throw. Had McConckey wide open in flat, would have been a first down……PUNT
D4 (TN) – 25: 3 plays, -7 yards, 1:39……..PUNT (Brooks, 48 yds)
First play of drive is a completed pass to Jones for 2 yards. The first quarter draws to a close. It’s the first time Georgia has trailed at the end of 1Q all season.
Second Quarter: Georgia 24, Tennessee 10
D4 (TN) continues….
Second down derailed drive. Hooker was hit while throwing. Called a sacked (loss of 11) and fumble. Jaylen Wright was Johnny on the spot for the recovery (in air). Third down, Wright gains 2 and Vols are forced to…….PUNT
D4 (Ga) -34: 9 plays, 44 yards, 3:46………FIELD GOAL (Podlesny, 40 yds)
Stetson Bennett picks up first down on gain of 12 yards. Bennett avoids intentionally grounding play on Beasley blitz up the middle. Georgia moving it with ease on this drive, but Vols come up with big third down stop to force a field goal. Vols swarm Bennett and give him a few shots, bring him down short of the marker on 3rd & 8. Podlesny drills 40yd FG…….FIELD GOAL (10-10)
D5 (TN) -25: 4 plays, 13 yards, 00:46…….INTERCEPTION
Vols gain five on first down Hooker run. Hooker misses Hyatt deep on second down. Too wide down the sideline, played well by CB Cine. Hooker hits Fant for first down on next play. Then comes the interception. Looks as if it was just a really bad throw. That’s had to believe though because Hooker is never that off. But he’s been off so far in this game. Looking for Jones on the comeback and the guy covering Tillman made the INT. Just a bad throw….INT
D5 (Ga) +40: 5 plays, 40 yards, 1:32……TOUCHDOWN
Tennessee played good defense on first two plays. Taylor great in coverage while White had nowhere to go on carry. On 3rd & 8, Tennessee sends 6 and gets no penetration. Bennett finds McConckey over the middle for the first. Georgia goes hurry up and gains 15 more yards on Cook run. Next play, Tennessee rushes up field great, forced Stetson back inside and he runs it in from 9 yards out…….TOUCHDOWN (Ga, 17-20)

D6 (Ga) -33: 3 plays, 7 yards, 1:32……..PUNT (Camarda, 43 yds)
Tennessee’s defense responds, forces three-and-out. Good zone on third down coupled with not a great throw from Stetson.
D7 (TN) -21: 5 plays, 20 yards, 1:26…….PUNT (Brooks, 49 yds)
Tennessee attacks the edge so well in perimeter passing game. Greta blocks by Fant & Jones on another screen to Keyton for a gain of 9 on first down. Nice run of 8 yards by Small on second down – following blockers of Fant and pulling center, Mays. Good vision and patience. Tennessee takes a shot to Keyton on next play, a GO down the far sideline. What looks like another overthrow, I thought was a good ball. Keyton was watching it the whole time and slowed down. Got to run, then get eyes back to find the ball. Just missed. Third down throw was behind Fant, NaKobe Dean breaks it up. Vols to punt……..PUNT
D7 (Ga) -10: 11 plays, 90 yards, 3:05……TOUCHDOWN
Georgia runs on first three plays. Tennessee doing a good job of taking on blockers, setting edge. Poor backside flow from linebackers. Stetson completes next two passes and then avoids sack on blitzing LBs (Banks, Beasley) by flicking ball out before going down. RB was in area – heads up play. Stetson then hits Mitchell on back-to-back plays to get in field goal range. Bennett motions Cook (RB) out wide and Page (LB) follows for man-coverage. Bennett throws good ball to end zone as Cook beats Page. Good recognition of the mismatch. For 23-yd score…….TOUCHDOWN (Ga, 24-10)
