Missouri vs Georgia: Relive All the Highlights from Saturday's Win

Saturday's 27-0 win over the Missouri Tigers places the Georgia Bulldogs just one win from clinching the SEC East and keeps their College Football Playoff hopes alive. Without Kelly Bryant, the Tigers were rendered scoreless and held under 200 yards of total offense for the first time all season. 

Kirby Smart and staff will not direct their attention to Auburn, but before we do that, let's take a moment to soak up the victory.  

It was a cold and breezy day in the classic city Saturday, relive everything from the Tailgate to the Postgame presser with us here on The Bulldog Maven.

Game Highlights: 

Fromm and company opened the game hot, scoring on their first possession. Driving 60 yards in just 6 plays, three runs and three passes, the last of which was a 25-yard strike from Jake Fromm to Freshman George Pickens on 3rd & 11. The Freshman's first of two scores in the contest came early. 

Richard LeCounte got his second interception on the season and he did not disappoint with regard to the return, taking it 71 yards back to the eighteen-yard line, leading to a Rodrigo Blakenship field goal.  

D'Andre Swift was not going to miss out on the explosive play party though, Swift joined the group to start the second half with a 47-yard statement run. Swift had 12 carries for 83 yards in the contest, slightly above his season average of 6.3 YPC. 

We had to save the best for last, Georgie Pickens' incredible fourth-quarter catch in the west endzone to put the nail in the coffin on the Tigers. Pickens finished the contest with 5 catches for 67 yards, and as Kirby Smart said after the game, there should have been a third TD grab had Pickens lined up correctly.
