Old Fashioned Beatdown

In the first half UGA fumbled and turned the ball over,
and Tech successfully executed an onside kick.
Good aggressive call by Collins,
who broke down and did pushups after the play.
After UGA took a 17-0 lead, the Jackets cut the score to 17-7 at the half,
after Rodrigo missed a field goal as the second quarter expired.
Tech only managed seven first downs. Already without their best receiver, UGA lost D'andre Swift to injury and five star freshman receiver Pickens, who was ejected for fighting. Tech's Swilling started the fracas but remained in the game.
Fromm threw for four touchdowns but struggled to find his mojo.
Several dropped passes by receivers and a couple of throwaways.
Demanding perfection, Jakes' naysayers had a field day bashing him.
Some wanted Fromm benched. Who do they think should replace him?
Even with Fromm bringing his A game,
it will be near impossible to beat LSU next week.  
The stands at Grant Field were mostly red.
Most Tech fans had left before the third quarter ended.
Tech wore light gold jerseys. Should've let Georgia wear red jerseys.
Dawgs dominated the stat sheet.
Thriller in the Iron Bowl.
Difference in the game was the field goal Auburn made at the end of the half, after a replay gave Auburn one second to get off the snap. Instead of standing behind the center to signal the clock, the ref stood off to the side of the kicker for his own safety. Saban might've had an argument.

Bama had a chance to tie, but banged a field goal attempt off the left upright. Auburn fans will be insufferable, but it helps clear up the playoff picture.
Backup QB Will Bryce got some playing time against South Carolina.
Once again the big bad all black uniforms didn't help win the game.
LSU QB Joe Burrow's last game. He just may win the Heisman.
