Georgia vs. Tennessee is coming down to the wire on Saturday night in Knoxville.
Tennessee got the upper hand and led 38-30 after hitting a field goal. Then, on the ensuing drive, Georgia took the ball and drove down the field’s length. On fourth down, Georgia scored a touchdown, and then it got the subsequent two-point conversion to tie the game.
Gunner Stockton threw a 28-yard touchdown pass to London Humphreys and then threw the two-point conversion pass to Zachariah Branch, tying the game with 2:32 seconds left.
Here’s a look at Stockton’s clutch throw to Humphreys:
That touchdown pass gave Stockton two for the day with 304 passing yards. He also has a 74.2% completion percentage after going 23/31. This was a breakout game for Stockton and cemented him as one of the better quarterbacks available in the SEC. It was a question of whether he could replace Carson Beck well, and he has answered the call and then some.
