Dec 8, 2024, 01:03 AM

Georgia defeated Texas 22-19 in overtime to win the SEC Championship, securing their fifth SEC title. The game was a thrilling contest, with Georgia becoming the first team since 1909 to beat Texas twice in the same season and the first SEC team since 2010 to defeat the same team in both the regular season and the SEC title game. Georgia's backup quarterback Gunner Stockton stepped in after starting quarterback Carson Beck was injured. Stockton suffered a concussion after a heavy hit, prompting Beck to return for the final play. Trevor Etienne scored the game-winning touchdown on a 4-yard run in overtime. The victory ensures Georgia a first-round bye in the College Football Playoff, while Texas is expected to host a playoff game in the opening round.
