Final minute interception crushes UGA

(This story was updated to add new information.)

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The Georgia Bulldogs almost had the comeback of the century, but fell just short in the final three minutes of the game to Alabama, 41-34.

The Bulldogs had a rough start, with Carson Beck headed into halftime having only completed eight passes total. A rushing touchdown and failed two-point conversion was all they could account for headed to the locker rooms.

They regained momentum in the second half, with a receiving touchdown from Arian Smith for 12-yards and a successful two-point conversion.

From there, it was like a wave. Georgia outscored Alabama in the second half 27-11, with touchdowns from Lawson Luckie and two from Dillon Bell, including a 67-yard dot that gave them the lead, if only briefly — like not even two seconds brief. Ryan Williams ran it back 75-yards in response.
