#5 University of Georgia 30, #1 University of Texas 15

A mega match between the top five teams has been held for three consecutive weeks this season, and the third week’s card was the one ranked No. 1 in the United States.University of Texasis in 5th placeUniversity of GeorgiaThis was a game in which the team headed home. The University of TexasSEC(Southeastern Conference) this year, this game had great significance in the SEC title race, but of course due to its high ranking.college football playoffs(CFP) It was also an important match for the race.

The University of Georgia has already suffered one loss, losing to the University of Alabama. And although the University of Texas has progressed undefeated to this point, it has never actually faced a tough opponent. I thought it would be a very interesting game to see where both sides stand, but…

Georgia QB starts the gamecarson beck(Carson Beck) committed two pass INTs in the first quarter alone and could not find a rhythm, and the Texas defense was gaining momentum with the support of the home crowd.

However, Georgia’s defense demonstrated the ability to go even further. Especially in the trench battle at the scrimmage, he overwhelmed the Texas OL team, which has future NFL candidates. Texas QBQuinn EwersHe put a lot of pressure on (Quinn Ewers) and made a fumble recovery after a QB sack, which really upset Ewers.

The University of Georgia took the lead. RB just before the end of the 1st quarterTrevor Etienne(Trevor Etienne)’s short-yard TD run gave Georgia the lead. On the other hand, the Texas offense struggled against Georgia’s pressure even in the second quarter, and Ewers committed an INT, allowing the Georgia defense to control the flow of the game. Meanwhile, Etienne scored his second TD of the day, making the score 17-0.

The University of Georgia made another FG to make it 20-0, and the University of Texas, ranked No. 1 in the nation, showed signs of impatience. ThereSteve Sarkisian(Steve Sarkisian) Coach was active during Ewers’ absence due to injury.arch manning(Arch Manning) brought on just before the end of the second quarter. However, even Manning could not do anything in front of Georgia’s defense, and Texas entered the second half without a score.

However, in the second half, Texas finally got a scoring drive. They continued their desperate attack, including a successful 4th down try, and with less than 11 minutes left in the third quarter, they were defeated by Ewers.Isaiah BondThe TD pass to (Isaiah Bond) finally gave the University of Texas a point.

Furthermore, late in the third quarter, Georgia QB Beck committed his third pass INT of the day, and Texas returned it 9 yards inside Georgia’s half. It seemed like the University of Texas had a great opportunity. But this timeJudder Baron(Jahdae Barron) was called for a defensive holding foul and this return was wiped out. An angry Texas fan decided to throw something onto the field, causing the game to be temporarily suspended. There is also a scene where director Sarkisian calms down the fans to appease this.

However, the referees reconsidered the play recently, and the holding foul was eventually written off. This led to a strange situation in which the foul was canceled because a Texas fan indirectly threw something into the game, giving the referees time to think about it.

(Incidentally, the University of Texas later paid a fine of $250,000 (approximately 25 million yen at a rate of 100 yen to the dollar) for this act, and the person who threw the object was tracked on video, and that person, etc. Will he be banned from the rest of the games?)

In the end, Texas took advantage of this opportunity and scored a TD, reducing the score to 23-15, just one point. The only thing I can’t control my anger about is the University of Georgia.Kirby Smart(Kirby Smart) Director. They were put in a disadvantageous situation by the referees in an away environment, and they did not remain silent. In the 4th quarter, Georgia started pushing with hard runs and went for a score in a 4th down & goal situation, and in the end, RB Etienne scored his third run TD of the day and Georgia was back up 30-15. Expand the point difference.

In the end, Texas was held back by Georgia’s strong defense and was unable to score any additional points, ending the game. We suffered our first loss of the season at home.

On this day at Georgia, as mentioned above, Beck committed three pass INTs and had zero pass TDs, so it was the defense that led the team. This is the 11th time under Smart that Georgia has held an opponent ranked in the nation’s top 10 to 15 points or fewer. It feels like the University of Georgia’s nasty defense from when they won the national championship for the second straight time is back.

University of Georgia’s front seven, especially the DLJaylon Walker(Jalon Walker) had a monster performance, recording 3 QB sacks, 3 TFL, and 8 total tackles. Moreover, it is surprising that most of these numbers were achieved in the first half. In addition, their defensive scheme was almost perfect, and there was no chance for them to take advantage of the opposing QB Ewers’ weaknesses and movement habits.

The only team they have lost to since 2021 is Alabama. They are showing great strength by winning against all other teams. It’s strange to think that there is a kind of awe towards the University of Alabama for that reason.

On the other hand, the University of Texas, although ranked No. 1, can be said to have been stripped of its plating by the powerhouse University of Georgia. Up until this point, we hadn’t had the kind of games where we struggled to win, but we were defeated by the University of Georgia, a team that has always won. You could say that I was baptized by the SEC…


#11 University of Tennessee 24, #7 University of Alabama 17

Since it is held on the third Saturday of every year,The Third Saturday in OctoberThis one of the best liveries is called by the nickname “.University of AlabamatooUniversity of TennesseeIt was a must-win match to stay alive in the SEC title race and CFP race.

The game started from the first half with both sides’ defenses doing well…or rather, both offenses getting very weak, and in the first half, Alabama’s Q.B.jaylen milroe(Jalen Milroe) to Super Rookie WRryan williamsWe entered the second half up 7-0 with only one TD pass to (Ryan Williams).

Tennessee QB struggled in the second halfNico Iamareiva(Nico Iamaleava) passes gradually. Starting from that, RBdylan sampson(Dylan Sampson)’s runs became effective, and Sampson scored two run TDs in the third quarter, and Tennessee entered the fourth quarter with a three-point lead.

However, Alabama’s RB immediately after the start of the 4th quarter.justice haynes(Justice Haynes) scored a 7-yard TD run to turn things around again. This game was a battle of defense, and it was thought that the game would be a close one, but that’s exactly what happened.

However, the University of Tennessee at home won’t just fall. Iamareiva’s only TD of the day came with less than six minutes left in the game.Chris Brazell II(Chris Brazzell II) made a perfect pass near the corner of the Hedo zone, producing a priceless come-from-behind TD.

The University of Alabama showed its incompetence by failing to get a single first down on its final four drives. The last chance came with less than two minutes left in the game, but QB Milroe’s pass was intercepted and it was all over. The University of Tennessee earned the gold star by defeating the University of Alabama at home for the second time in 2022.

When the University of Tennessee defeated the University of Alabama in 2022, a fan broke off a goal post and threw it into the Tennessee River.On this day, fans stormed the field and knocked down the goal post as well. I did. Unfortunately, due to the way it was bent, the goalposts never made it out of the stadium…

On this day, the University of Tennessee’s defense struggled. He limited Alabama’s total rushing yards to 75 yards and was able to extract two pass INTs from Milroe. He also kept a check on Alabama’s offense, racking up three sacks.

On the other hand, the University of Alabama’s offense had not been active since the second half of the game against Georgia, and they had a reputation for their scoring ability.Kaylen DeBoer(Kalen DeBoer) The new coach’s tactics are not working well. Also, on this day, they were penalized 15 times and were forced back for 115 yards. I didn’t like self-destruction (of course, everyone does)nick saban(Nick Saban) Under the previous manager, he would have been punished if he committed this many penalties.

Either way, the University of Tennessee maintains its one loss and the University of Alabamavanderbilt universityThis was a painful second loss following the previous match. Naturally, it is becoming increasingly likely that the University of Tennessee will survive in the SEC title race, while the University of Alabama will not be able to participate in the playoffs, let alone the title race, due to its second loss in the conference game. By the way, this is the first time they have lost two games before November since 2007, Saban’s first year as head coach. Is the idea that the University of Alabama = a consistently winning team becoming questionable?
