Fourth quarter

Georgia 50, LSU 30, 7:12

7 plays, 83 yards, 1:55

Garrett Nussmeier broke a sack on fourth down and found Jaray Jenkins for a 33-yard touchdown. The backup quarterback is now 12-of-21 passing for 253 yards, 2 touchdowns and an interception.

The Tigers are the first team to score 30 points on Georgia this season.

Georgia 50, LSU 23, 13:13

7 plays, 75 yards, 3:33

Kenny McIntosh scored his second touchdown of the day on an 8-yard toss sweep. AD Mitchell found Darnell Washington on the 2-point conversion.

It is the second time Georgia has scored 50 points this season. The first was against Vanderbilt.

UGA now has 217 rushing yards for 2 touchdowns. Kendall Milton leads the group with 96 yards.

Third quarter

Georgia 42, LSU 23, 1:46

4 plays, 65 yards, 1:46

Noah Cain capped off another explosive LSU drive with a 1-yard touchdown run. The Tigers failed to convert a 2-point conversion.

That touchdown marked the most points Georgia has allowed since the 2021 SEC Championship.

Josh Williams finally broke through for the LSU run game, ripping a 47-yard run. The Tigers have reached the red zone in three straight drives.

Georgia 42, LSU 17, 3:32

8 plays, 95 yards, 4:27

Kenny McIntosh scored UGA’s first rushing touchdown of the day from 2 yards out.

Todd Monken is leaning on Georgia’s physicality to move the ball while burning clock. Seven of UGA’s eight plays were on the ground. The single pass was a screen to Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, who ran 18 yards behind a convoy of offensive linemen.

The Bulldog defense flipped the momentum with a fourth-and-inches stop at its own 5-yard line. Georgia has allowed 6 total yards rushing on 15 attempts.

Georgia 35, LSU 17, 10:33

3 plays, 57 yards, 0:51

Garrett Nussmeier, in his second drive in relief of the injured Jayden Daniels, found Malik Nabers on a 34-yard touchdown pass. It was LSU’s first touchdown since the first quarter.

Nussmeier entered Atlanta with 333 passing yards, a touchdown, two interceptions and a QBR of 22.

The Tigers recovered a Georgia fumble on their own 43-yard line to set up the score.

The Bulldogs will also repeatedly be without Warren McClendon and Ladd McConkey for the rest of the game. McClendon exited when his leg was rolled on in the second quarter.

McConkey appeared to leave with a right leg injury, and is now in street clothes on the UGA sideline.

Second quarter

Georgia 35, LSU 10, 0:00

7 plays, 51 yards, 00:32

LSU kicked a 42-yard field goal in the final seconds of the first half. It was the first Tiger points in five offensive possessions.

Jayden Daniels was 5-of-5 passing on the drive for 51 yards.

Daniels does appear increasingly bothered by his ankle injury. The quarterback was momentarily replaced by backup Garrett Nussmeier and limped into the locker room while his team was kicking the last-second field goal.

Georgia’s 35 first half points mark the most allowed by LSU this season. Stetson Bennett has 214 passing yards and a season-high 4 touchdown passes, completing 19 of 24 pass attempts.

The quarterback is sharing the wealth as four different players have a touchdown catch. Ladd McConkey leads the group with 5 receptions for 69 yards and a score.

The Bulldog offense, looking as lethal as it did the last time it played in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, will start the second half with the ball.

Georgia 35, LSU 7, 00:32

5 plays, 58 yards, 1:26

Freshman receiver Dillon Bell notched his third touchdown of the season on a 3-yard rollout pass from Stetson Bennett.

The Georgia defense forced its third consecutive three-and-out, starting the offense just 58 yards from the end zone. Three plays later, Georgia was at the Tiger 2-yard line.

UGA has scored on four of its last five drives and will start the second half with the ball.

Georgia 28, LSU 7, 2:48

13 plays, 76 yards, 5:06

Both of Georgia’s tight end have made highlight plays, as Darnell Washington snagged a 14-yard touchdown pass. Washington burned two defensive backs for his second score of the season.

The Bulldog offense slowed its tempo on the drive, taking more time to score its fourth touchdown than its first two combined.

Stetson Bennett has made a case for a slew of postseason awards in the first half, posting 170 yards passing with 3 touchdowns on 16 completions.

The Georgia defense appears to have settled in since giving up LSU’s only touchdown. The Tigers’ last three drives have ended with a pair of three-and-outs and an interception.

Jack Podlesny missed his third field goal of the season from 43 yards out on the previous UGA drive. The senior is now 23-of-26 , but just 3-of-6 from 40-plus yards.

Georgia 21, LSU 7, 14:43

1 play, 22 yards, 0:08

Stetson Bennett delivered his second score of the day, a 22-yard strike to Ladd McConkey.

It was Bennett’s 17th touchdown pass and McConkey’s fifth TD catch on the season.

Georgia’s points have been nothing if not explosive. The Bulldogs have 21 points from just over four minutes of possession time.

An unlikely interception snagged by Smael Mondon gave Georgia the ball on the LSU 22-yard line. LSU’s first pass of the drive was broken up by Christopher Smith, bounced off the helmet of the intended receiver and Javon Bullard, and into Mondon’s hands.

The Bulldogs scored on the first play of the drive.

First quarter

Georgia 14, LSU 7, 00:03

7 plays, 75 yards, 2:18

Brock Bowers capped a monster drive, snagging a 3-yard touchdown pass for his sixth TD catch of the season.

The tight end had 3 receptions for 50 yards and a score on the drive.

Stetson Bennett has completed 5 of 7 passes for 70 yards with a touchdown. The Bulldogs have struggled in the run game so far, with 6 yards on 3 attempts.

Georgia 7, LSU 7, 2:21

3 plays, 75 yards, 1:12

LSU’s talented receiving corps responded quickly, as Kayshon Boutte ripped a 53-yard touchdown catch.

Jayden Daniels is 10-of-13 passing for 143 yards and a touchdown.

Georgia 7, LSU 0, 3:33

Christopher Smith recovered a field goal blocked by Nazir Stackhouse and returned it 95 yards for the game’s first points.

It was Smith’s first touchdown since a pick-six in the 2021 season opener against Clemson.

The Bulldog front has imposed its will early with two sacks and the block.

Jayden Daniels appeared bothered by his ankle injury for the first time. Tramel Walthour fell on his feet on a second down sack and the quarterback came up limping.

AD Mitchell, who participated in team warmups after playing limited snaps last week, was not on the field for UGA’s first possession.

3:45 p.m. update: No Marvin Jones Jr. today, as he is wearing a boot on his left ankle after injuring it against Georgia Tech. Georgia is already without Nolan Smith, leaving the Bulldogs with just Chaz Chambliss and Robert Beal as the only options at the position. Jalon Walker will help out in pass-rushing situations.

De’Nylon Morrissette dressed after dealing with a hamstring injury.

AD Mitchell was much more involved in pregame warmups than he had been in the past.

Pregame: Georgia players have made their way out onto the field for pregame warmups. Most notably, wide receiver AD Mitchell was going through drills with the team as Georgia hopes to get some contributions from the talented sophomore.

He has not played since the win over Auburn back on Oct. 8.

“Same as recent weeks. He’s been in some practice weeks,” Georgia coach Kirby Smart said. “He’s going to be out there and rep. The hopes are he’s going to be able to contribute.”

There are no travel restrictions with this game, meaning Georgia is able to bring its entire roster to the game.

During the current portion of warmups, tight end Arik Gilbert is not with the team. He did not dress last week and did not travel with the team to Kentucky.

A win for Georgia would move the Bulldogs to 13-0 and give them the first SEC championship since 2017. Georgia likely already has a spot in the College Football Playoff locked up, especially after USC’s loss last night.

This could be the first of two straight games for Georgia in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, as it will host one of the College Football Playoff semifinals. Georgia beat Oregon 49-3 in this building earlier this year as well.

But Smart is more focused on beating LSU first and foremost.

“There’s no thought of the next step,” Smart said. “There’s such a long break between this step and next step. This is the culmination of a season. The next opportunity, we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.”
