    Will Ralphie give Colorado the edge? Colorado is able to move the ball against the Georgia defense. A missed FG and a made FG has Colorado up by 3 close to the end of the 1st quarter. Colorado scored a TD on the last drive but it was called back on a false start. Georgia has done nothing on offense.

    There is less than 5 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. The most shocking stat in the game so far is that Georgia only has 2 first downs. Colorado defense is playing lights out!

    This is a good Georgia team that has made 4 first daowns (one by penalty). This first half has to be a shocker for both teams and fans. Colorado goes into the locker room up 10 to ZIP.

    Will the real Bull Dawgs show up in the second half?

    If Colorado holds on, it will be a huge upset!

    Maybe Richt will let Bobo call the plays from the booth? Richt is a failure at OC.

    Totally shocking halftime stats as well.

    Rusingh yards 132 to 18
    Passing yards 109 to 36
    total yards 241 to 54
    TOP 19:05 to 10:55

    Colorado has even had more penalties (5/50) than Georgia (3/35).

    I would bet the farm that Georgia wakes up in the second half.

    ... or not! Georgia offense was getting momentum but has now turned the ball over on the first two drives of the second half. The first resulted in a Colorado FG. The second was after had made about a 30 yard impressive drive. If colorado can score on this second turnover, will Georgia be able to turn the game around.

    This could be the turning point of the game. Georgia defense holds and forces a Colorado punt. It is still a 2 score game with six and a half minutes left in the 3rd period.

    Colorado 13 Georgia 0

    I've been out all morning this is the biggest shocker of the day so far, Colorado has been just awfull so far this year. B12 sure needs the upset to get a little of it's tarnished prestige back from last weekends debacles.

    Colorado is moving backwards now. They are hard pressed to run a play without a penalty. They have committed 4 penalties in the 3rd quarter and now have to punt to the Dawgs.

    Georgia has now inserted the backup QB, #14 Cox and Georgia is moving the ball.

    Georgia gambles on 4th and 3 from the Colorado 13 yard line. They turn the ball over with 14 minutes left in the 4th quarter still down by 13. A 30 yard FG at that point would have helped the psyche of the team tremendously. That could prove to be a big mistake.

    Passing 109 to 103 Great improvement for Georgia
    Total 271 to 128

    Georgia Defense holds strong again. If Georgia comes back, the defense has to be praised. Georgia gets the ball back with the best field position of the day for them.

    Georgia offense comes alive and the Colorado defense is now being hit with penalties. Such a disiplined team early is now shooting itself in the foot. Georgia scores to draw within 6 points.

    Colorado holds to force Georgia to go for it on 4th and three again at the same place as before. Pass incomplete and the Buffs make yet another defensive stand. Colorado ball on the Colorado 12 yard line.

    If Georgia had kicked both FGs rather than going for it twice, the score would be tied right now.

    Colorado 13 Georgia 7 with 3:30 left

    Georgia defense again stops the Buffs. Colorado punts to Georgia with under 2:40 to play.

    After a few plays, Georgia has the ball on the Colorado 25 with 90 seconds left.

    What a game! Georgia goes up by one with 46 seconds left in the game. Hopefully Georgia will still be a top 10 undefeated team when Tennessee come calling. Georgia needs to stay with Cox!
