5 plays, 75 yards, 1:22

Texas is back in a flash, as Quinn Ewers found DeAndre Moore Jr. on a slant-and-sprint for a 41-yard score. The Longhorns scored their first touchdown, but it was far from their first explosive pass of the game.

Third quarter

Georgia 13, Texas 6, 00:16

9 plays, 61 yards, 4:40

Peyton Woodring took a seven-point lead with a chip shot 24-yard field goal. The Bulldogs had another impressive drive but stalled out inside the 5-yard line.

The third quarter was much better for UGA’s offense, as it outgained its first half performance 116-54. UGA also scored 10 more points and had two more first downs. Stockton’s first quarter of significant action ended with 43 yards passing on four completions.

Georgia 10, Texas 6, 10:27

10 plays, 75 yards, 4:33

Gunner Stockton is here, and Georgia’s offense came to play with him on its opening drive. The Bulldogs’ backup quarterback entered after an injury to Carson Beck on the final play of the first half.

Stockton led the Bulldog offense down the field and Trevor Etienne finished the drive with a 10-yard rushing touchdown, plowing over several Longhorn defenders. It was UGA’s longest run of the day.

The redshirt sophomore from Rabun County completed three passes for 36 yards and added another 12 yards on two rushes.

Second quarter

Texas 6, Georgia 3, 6:32

8 plays, 49 yards, 3:50

Georgia got on the board with a 44-yard field goal from Peyton Woodring, but the drive easily could have been extended into the red zone.

But yet again, UGA’s receiving core failed Carson Beck, as Arian Smith got open before dropping a perfect pass that would have moved the chains. According to the ABC broadcast, it was UGA’s 37th drop of the season, which leads the country.

It was still Georgia’s strongest drive, as the Bulldogs finally got some momentum on the ground, which paid off in the play action attack.

Texas appeared to find some success on the ground on its last drive, too.

Texas 6, Georgia 0, 10:22

14 plays, 56 yards, 7:14

A long, chutes-and-ladders-type drive from Texas ended in another field goal from Bert Auburn. But the Longhorns’ offense appears to be much more comfortable at this point in the game than UGA’s.

Texas has run 28 plays with eight first downs. Georgia has seven plays and has moved the chains one time.

The Longhorns have also outgained the Bulldogs 193-11.

UGA’s defense continues to handle Texas’ run game well, but the Longhorn pass attack is punishing Georgia’s secondary. The Longhorns have faced an average third down distance of 14.1, and have gained an average of 20 yards on third down attempts.

Steve Sarkisian appears to be attacking cornerback Daniel Harris, UGA’s second cornerback. Harris is making his third career start and should be the Bulldogs’ unquestioned CB2 after Julian Humphrey announced his intent to transfer on Sunday.

First quarter

Texas 3, Georgia 0, 5:17

9 plays, 64 yards, 4:10

Bert Auburn scored the game’s first points with a 41-yard field goal for Texas.

The Longhorns’ passing offense is clicking well, but the Bulldog front has made them one-dimensional to this point. Quinn Ewers has six completions for 117 yards while Texas has 10 rushing yards on six carries.

UGA has dominated the line of scrimmage defensively, but it lost its first offensive battle at the line on third-and-1. Carson Beck attempted a ‘tush push’ but came up inches short, prompting a three-and-out on the team’s first drive.

1 p.m. ET Update: At last, the SEC Championship game is here.

Saturday’s game will be a rematch between Georgia and Texas. The Bulldogs beat Texas 30-15 earlier in the season.

But head coach Kirby Smart expects a different game between these two teams.

“Texas does a tremendous job. First of all, they have good players,” Smart said. “They have very sound schemes. They out-execute you. They figure out your tendencies and they do a great job of recognizing formations and routes. They have instinctive defensive football players, especially on the second level, where they read routes, they jump routes. They do a tremendous job. So that adds a lot. Do they get hands on the ball? Do they get a lot of tips? And when you get tips, you tend to get a lot of interceptions. They are one of the best in the country at doing that.”

On the injury front, Georgia will wait to see the status of running back Trevor Etienne and Christen Miller. Etienne has been dealing with a rib injury that has kept him out of the previous three games. He did have 3 rushing touchdowns in the earlier matchup against Texas.

Miller has been out since the game against UMass game when he suffered a shoulder injury.

Smart provided an update on both players on Thursday.

“They’ve been taking part in some parts of practice and taking reps and, you know, hopeful that those guys are able to do something,” Smart said. “You know, they’re both listed as questionable right now.”

As for Texas, offensive tackle Kelvin Banks has been listed as questionable throughout the week. He left the Texas A&M game but Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian noted that Banks did practice this week. Georgia had 7.0 sacks in the first game.
