JUMP TO:

After 45 minutes of football on Saturday night, Georgia looked to be leaving the door open for an Arch Manning comeback attempt. Kirby Smart and Gunner Stockton slammed that door shut.

With 21 fourth-quarter points and five total touchdowns from Stockton, No. 5 Georgia defeated No. 11 Texas, 35-10. No matter the result, Saturday's matchup was bound to impact the top of the SEC and the College Football Playoff race. Georgia's second-half dominance further affirmed that Smart's team isn't just approaching "lock" status for the CFP—it could also have a shot at the SEC's automatic bid in a few weeks.

An opening-drive field goal was one of just two Texas scoring drives all night, as the Bulldogs' defense dominated Manning; the Longhorns went 2-for-12 on third downs. Steve Sarkisian's run game was also stifled, totaling just 23 yards, while Stockton made a statement leading the Georgia offense.

Completing 24 of 29 passes for 229 yards, four touchdowns, and an interception, with 29 yards and a touchdown on the ground, Stockton kept his team rolling for its sixth straight conference win. A gutsy call also paid off for Smart in the fourth quarter, as an unexpected onside kick led to back-to-back touchdown drives, ending Texas' hopes of a comeback.

While Manning and the Longhorns’ playoff chances are dwindling, Georgia once again proved its worth as a potential national title contender. On both sides of the ball, Smart had his team cruising, looking well-prepared for a playoff run.

He's now completed 24 of 29 passes for 229 yards, four touchdowns and one interception, with his lasting scoring pass going to Lawson Luckie.

10:20 p.m. —  Immediately following the touchdown, Kirby Smart took a wild gamble, attempting an onside kick. It paid off. Georgia recovers the shocking onside kick, robbing Steve Sarkisian of a possession. The Bulldogs can now burn some clock, or extend it to a three-score advantage. 

Georgia 21, Texas 10

10:18 p.m. TOUCHDOWN —  Stockton delivers his third touchdown pass of the night, a key one that puts Texas down two scores in the fourth quarter. From 30 yards out, Georgia's quarterback went to London Humphreys for the score.

End of third quarter: Georgia 14, Texas 10

10:08 p.m. —  Georgia keeps a massive drive going on 4th & 1, going for it from its own 36-yard line. Smart's call pays off; Stockton goes to Chauncey Bowens for a 10-yard pickup to keep the drive alive. With the third quarter winding down, the intensity has picked up in Athens. 

As we head to the fourth, it's still anybody's game.

Georgia 14, Texas 10

Halftime: Georgia 14, Texas 3

9:14 p.m. —  Texas doesn't try to force anything with a few seconds remaining, sending this SEC matchup to halftime. Georgia is in control, with Kirby Smart's defense slowing down Manning (125 passing yards, 1 INT) enough, especially on third downs. Gunner Stockton has been efficient and effective, with 139 yards passing and two touchdowns.

Texas' playoff hopes will likely be on the line in the second half.

9:12 p.m. —  Another punt for Georgia. Manning has little time, but will get the ball before the end of the half. Both offenses have gone cold late in the second quarter.

9:04 p.m. —  With two minutes remaining in the half, Georgia has the ball. The Bulldogs quickly punted after Manning's interception, but Texas proceeded to go three-and-out, setting Stockton up for a chance to add some points before the break.

Georgia will get the ball to begin the second half, a chance to double-up in scoring opportunities.

8:56 p.m. — Just as Manning got Texas in range to score again, he throws a pick. KJ Bolden grabs it for the Bulldogs, a key turnover to give Georgia another chance to extend its first-half lead. Manning had a strong start initially, but hasn't had many answers for Kirby Smart's defense.

8:55 p.m. —  The Texas run game has been more present tonight, up to 4.6 yards per carry so far with Quintrevion Wisner leading the way. The Longhorns are in field-goal range.

8:50 p.m. —  Stockton can't get much going after consecutive touchdown drives. Georgia punts, and Texas will get another opportunity to make this a closer game again.

8:40 p.m. — The Georgia defense has settled in since the start of the matchup. Texas punts again, as Manning did have a 40-yard play to Emmett Mosley V, but poor field position was too much to overcome. Manning has 75 yards thus far, trailing by two scores.

Georgia 14, Texas 3

8:34 p.m. TOUCHDOWN —  Gunner Stockton is off to a fantastic start. He continues cruising on his second drive, extending Georgia's lead with a touchdown pass to Thomas once again. Stockton has 103 passing yards already.
