Tennessee stuns Georgia on Hail Mary (Video)

Butch Jones Hail Mary

Tennessee remained undefeated on Saturday and it took a miraculous play for the streak to stay alive.

With ten seconds left in regulation, Georgia’s Jacob Eason found Riley Ridley for a 47-yard touchdown pass to put the Bulldogs up 31-28 over the Volunteers. Unfortunately for Georgia, the remaining time was just enough for Tennessee.

After the ensuing kickoff, Tennessee set up shop at Georgia’s 43-yard line. On first down, Josh Dobbs dropped back and launched a pass towards the end zone. When the ball came down, it did so in the hands of Jauan Jennings for the game-winning touchdown.

After a few moments of elation, head coach Butch Jones fell to his knees on the field.

The play capped off a remarkable fourth quarter for Tennessee, who scored 20 points in the final period to overcome a 24-14 deficit. The Volunteers are now 5-0 and 2-0 in SEC play.
