South Carolina beats Georgia on the most unlikely finish anyone could have imagined
The South Carolina Gamecocks came to Georgia as massive underdogs, but coach Will Muschamp’s squad never gave up.
After leading 17-10 late in the fourth quarter, the Gamecocks watched as Georgia tied it up, sending it to overtime.
Then, in overtime, K Parker White missed a field goal, keeping the game alive. White hit a shorter field goal in double overtime, but Georgia K Rodrigo Blankenship — one of the most reliable kickers in the nation — had a chance to send it to triple overtime.
In a finish no one could have expected, Blankenship missed for the second time of the game, as you can see below:

Entering the game, Blankenship was 11-for-11 on field-goal tries. He went 1-for-3 on Saturday.
This was Georgia’s first loss of the season. A fall in the AP Poll is sure to follow.
