OPENING THOUGHTS
This will be anyones game. Both Georgia (#10) and Tennessee (#13) are tough teams and both are SEC. I had to listen to the game on WIVK, since I don’t have cable. The game was on EPSN at 7:45 p.m. The game is held in Athens, GA. This will be Tennessee’s and Georgia’s 36th time meeting.

1st QUARTER
Georgia gets to kick-off to Tennessee. Erik Ainge is the starting quarterback tonight. Tennessee gets a penalty right off the bat. Tennessee has to punt it off to Georgia. Tennessee almost intercepted the ball from Georgia. Georgia attempts a field goal, the kick is good! TN—0 to GA—3. Georgia kicks-off to Tennessee. Bret Smith gets us a Tennessee touchdown.

Touchdown Tennessee! Aria Foster just gets it in and Wilhoit tacks on the extra point. TN—14 to GA—24. Now, Tennessee has to kick off the ball to Georgia. Now Georgia has the ball with 44 seconds left in the half. Georgia leads 24 to Tennessee 14.

HALF TIME THOUGHTS
I would really hate to be in the locker room during this half time. I know they are going to get a good earful. I hope Tennessee they can come back like they normally do in the 2nd half. I predict you will see a new Tennessee team when they come back out to play and they will step it up a knotch or two.

3rd QUARTER
Georgia kicks off to Tennessee. Tennessee has to start off the 2nd half kicking the ball off to Georgia. Antwan Stewart intercepted the ball. Stewarts’s 2nd interception of the season. Flag on the play, dead ball, false start against Tennessee. Another penalty flag, pass interferance against Georgia. Now another penalty flag, holding against Georgia. Ainge does a quarterback sneak and scores Tennessee a touchdown. Ainge’s first for the season. They are reviewing the play to make sure Ainge made it inside the inzone. Call on the field stands! It is a touchdown! Wilhoit’s extra point is… GOOD! TN—21 to GA—24. Tennessee kicks off to Georgia. Penalty, face mask against Georgia. Another penalty, holding against Tennessee.

4th QUARTER
Tennessee starts the 4th quarter with the ball, just right after intercepting it from Georgia. Touchdown Tennessee! Ainge play fakes, Ainge pretended to give the ball to LaMarcus Coker, but tossed it Robert Meachem, who got the touchdown. Wilhoits extra point is… GOOD! TN—31 to GA—27. Tennessee now kicks it off to Georgia. Flag on the play, blocking the back, against Georgia. Georgia will now punt, the first punt tonight by Georgia. Tennessee’s Antonio Wardlow blocks the kick and it is down in the inzone and Tennessee’s Wardlow fell on it for a Touchdown! Wilhoits kick is… GOOD! TN—38 to GA—27.

Georgia kicks off the ball to Tennessee. Ainge attempts a sneak for a touchdown and didn’t make it. Arian Foster in for the touchdown, penalty, offsides against Georgia, penalty decline, touchdown Tennessee! The kick by Wilhoit was no good, his 3rd miss of his Tennessee career. TN—44 to GA—33. Tennessee kicks the ball of to Georgia. Georgia fumbles the ball and Tennessee’s Jerod Mayo recovers it. The 3rd Defense turnover for game. Georgia has a time out to have futher review of the play. After review shows it was a fumble, so Tennessee stands on the recovery. Arian Foster for his 3rd touchdown tonight and this season! The play is now under review. The play is a touchdown! Wilhoits extra point is… GOOD! TN—51 to GA—33. It has been a long time since a team has scored 50 points against Georgia, esp. in the SEC, so Tennessee has made history with this game tonight. Tennessee kicks it off to Georgia. Tennessee’s Jonathan Hefney just intercepted the ball. Tennessee’s 3rd interception tonight. Tennesee wins the ball game 51 to Georgia 33.

FINAL THOUGHTS
Tennessee has really struggled on the kicking game. Tennessee needs to step it up a bit, we still have some tough teams left to play, esp. since all the rest of our games are conference games in the SEC. That was a great play from Wardlow where he blocks the kick and recovers the ball for a touchdown. We can expect great things for him, esp. since he is a Freshman. Georgia was very well at pick up the ball from a kick off and going all the way down the field. I figured the talk they got at half time would work for them, Tenneseee usually comes back in the 2nd half, esp. if they were behind in the 1st. This is Tennessee’s 2nd straight win in Athens, GA. Georgia didn’t hesitate taking down the score from tonights game, the radio said, about 2 seconds after the game, they shut it off. The player of the game is.. Erik Ainge.
