[Applause] georgia or receive it this end shake hands guys let's have a great playoff game all right there you go that's scott campbell the referee out of the big 12 conference georgia will get the opening kick michigan won the toss they deferred let's go down to dj shockley on the field to cook's pest control report shock what's the uh what's the atmosphere on the sideline i'll tell you the atmosphere inside the locker room was really good one of the things that kirby smart mentioned was he said hey i feel a little doubted i feel like we're getting a little disrespected so there's a little chip on the shoulder these dogs as they come out this locker room he said one thing they want to do is play a physical for 60 minutes but they said they doubt it they feel good i think they're excited but there's definitely a chip on the shoulder all right shock thanks very much it's a it's a long standing chip these two teams haven't played in uh since 1965. so maybe that chip's been there for both teams a long long time our kickoff is coming up uh it's brought to you by georgia power powered by georgia power whether you're on the way to the stadium or heading home from a win charge up with georgia power plug in at one of our convenient ev charging stations today all right the field is clear temporarily as michigan huddles up its uh kickoff unit and now they'll take the field and georgia will have the kick return unit head to the field momentarily and we'll watch it from our cozy little booth here the piedmont healthcare cozy little radio booth in the northwest corner of hard rock stadium in miami gardens florida our first half tonight presented by attorney ken nugent injured in a wreck there's only one one call that's all one eight hundred call ken so michigan will be delivering the kick with their lou groza award winner jake moody the senior from northville michigan will kick it uh in a traditional setting it would be left to right but in this setting he's kicking it towards us kind of back deep for georgia is kenny mcintosh on the goal line on the far hash and that's the direction the ball will go it'll hang high come down returnable mcintosh from the seven to the 10 to the 15 to the 20 right into the pile and down right there at the 20-yard line maybe an inch or two shy of that but kenny with an opportunity to return one those don't happen much anymore in college football he took advantage of it returned it out to the 20-yard line no they don't we've seen the dogs do that all year long because we've got such talent on the special team saw it there from michigan purposely kicked that short to try to give yourself a little bit better starting field position if you're on the defensive side of the ball but out of the gates here the dogs get to see what this michigan defense is all about top 25 nationally in seven major categories cedric van praan the center up over the football stetson bennett the quarterback zamir white in the backfield first and ten from the 20 for the dogs hand off first carry samir straight up the gut and he boom close to a first down i think he got it actually or maybe they're gonna bring it back a yard shy he got nine straight up the hash brad hawkins the free safety a graduate from camden new jersey on the stop for the michigan defense but a good way to start this ball game on a nine yard gain on first down well michigan brought linebacker pressure there drop down went single safety try to get a safety involved as well but just a zone run there by the dogs we locked into those linebackers and drove them backwards second one for georgia just underway here in miami in the orange bowl play fake and a throw out to a.d mitchell caught at the 36 by mitchell he veers inside the numbers and then back out and they'll bring him down where around the 40 georgia 45 yard line that's a gain of 16 yards and that's a scan of energy first down the second of the or the first of the game for the bulldogs it was dj turner on the stop the quarterback for michigan yeah michigan showed cover two pre-snap rolled again to three deep stetson saw it just ran a hitch with a.d on the outside and michigan's cornerback gave a ton of room for a.d to catch that three tight ends in the formation for georgia pass play for bennett he's going to go left to the sideline reaching and catching brock bowers up high deep in michigan territory on the near sideline there's the sec player of the year doing his thing way downfield he's been match-up problems all year long but i'll tell you give the george offensive line credit right there that play took a long time to develop stetson able to stand in the pocket took a pretty big hit at the end of it but plenty of time to survey the field and step into that throw 35 yards on the game down to the michigan 20. dogs in the in the red zone down on the far end of the field bennett going to take the snap throw it to brock bowers to the right time this time as they set up a screen on the far hash and brower's bowers rather makes the catch down the line and then proceeds to push that ball inside the 15. uh far end of the field looks like they're tackled down around the 14 or so and it was ross and coulson two linebackers making the stop as george is working in the massey ferguson red zone here on their first possession boy but about four or five yards after contact there on that little bubble screen brock bowers we wanted to get him involved in the football game early we're doing it second and three from the michigan 13 for georgia dogs on the doorstep early on white to bennett's left zamir will get the handoff bounces left runs into a hoard of blue shirted defenders and they'll stack up zamir white after a short gain brad hawkins the free safety hit him first for michigan they got two it's gonna be third down and a yard to go wolverines brought their free safety all the way down in the box almost into a linebacker position they're expecting run and just trying to clog up any interior holes third and one on the 11. first series of the ball game georgia way down at the other end of the field stetson bennett looks over his left shoulder turns around looks to the sideline play clock down to four it's at three bennett ready for the snap here it comes he snaps it and did we call time or take the penalty we stopped the clock the officials blow it dead i think georgia called time timeout georgia first and a half georgia called time they don't get penalized [Music] back inside the piedmont healthcare radio booth we need another booth down on the other end of the field just to see what the heck is going on third down and one to go for georgia we're on the michigan 11 scoreless ball game first possession of the contest 11 20 nine on the clock here in the first quarter bennett under center zamir in the backfield stretch handoff white straight ahead running powers into the pile and inside the 10 to the nine and from this angle looks like he got the first down well scott the dogs flipped the formation there we had tripp's bunch to our right moved everybody before the snap to the left it created all kinds of confusion in the on the michigan defensive front they never got set it's going to be a first down a scanner energy first down on the run by zamir two yard gain its goal to go for the dogs on the doorstep nine yard line of michigan trying to get on the board first here in the orange bowl quickly break the huddle james cooks in the backfield cook play fake from bennett throws it out to bowers wide open left side catches it and into the end zone left corner touchdown as the dogs are on the board first boy how do you leave brock bauer is that wide open a busted coverage for michigan brock bowers just ran a simple flat route nobody was close to him good job of recognition from stetson bennett delivered a ball that easily allowed brock bowers to turn and run and nobody was there he goes in untouched nine yard touchdown throw from bennett to bowers that's the 12th reception on touchdowns for brock bowers and that is a new school record for the bulldogs and the freshman tied in from california point after try jack potlesny is coming up six to nothing dogs jackpots kick low but got over the crossbar very low wow but he did make it seven to nothing dogs 10 49 to go in the first quarter as the dogs take it the distance they went 80 yards in seven plays in four minutes and 11 seconds and the scoring strike was a nine yard touchdown pass from stetson bennett to brock bowers that is your georgia metals drive summary from a dog house to a dog's house georgia metals has got you covered bennett by the way z four for four 67 yards throwing the football on the opening possession yeah look very sharp give credit to the offensive line as well stats have been in a couple of quick throws there getting the football out of his hands which is exactly what we wanted to see because of this bonnet pass rush of michigan but when we did press it down field on the wheel route to brock bowers ample time for for stetson to survey the field he took a pretty big shot right at the end of that throw but nice work there by the offensive front for georgia our first half tonight presented by attorney ken nugent injured in a wreck there's only one one call that's all one eight hundred call kent [Music] jake camarda as the ball teed up on the 35 he'll measure it off as he walks it off back to the 27 he'll approach and kick aj henning a dangerous return man for michigan down on the far end the left end of the field but camarda's kick will sail high and deep and into the end zone and michigan will take the touch back seven to nothing georgia first quarter bulldogs football brought to you in part by your atlanta area bmw centers providing legendary performance exceptional offers and a premium ownership experience at bmw they only make one thing the ultimate driving machine visit bmwatl.com today proud sponsor of georgia athletics this michigan offense they want to be balanced but it starts with running the football running backs hassan haskins blake quorum together averaging over 180 yards per game that's a good one-two punch and their offensive line supposedly the best in college football before the snap flags fly and the whistles blow the umpire through the flag fall start number 68 that's on the center andrew the stardust a graduate from ashburton virginia and these guys are boy they're good across the front stuber the right tackle might be the best of the bunch it's a veteran group and they move people they create space yeah just an unforced error there from an offensive line that has been outstanding they lead the country in fewest tackles for loss they're third in the country and sacks allowed back on the 21st and 15. mcnamara to throw escapes to pocket he'll run it straight up the hash still on his feet dives forward now up across the 35 and maybe uh across the 40 they're going to mark it back around the 38 where he began his dive forward a big run by the quarterback mcnamara a huge gaping hole at right guard for mcnamara yeah good recognition there by mcnamara we did not bring pressure the dogs didn't bring pressure there but we ran with all the receivers so our backs were turned mcnamara saw it and then took off for a nice game 18-yard run i'll say first and ten at their own 38 for michigan snap it in the shotgun they run a little flea picker after the handoff to haskins pitch it back to the quarterback and then he throws it to haskins for a short gain as he makes the catch around the 42 or so on the near hash and then he's tackled there pretty quickly around the 43-yard line by the georgia by the bulldog defense he got five yards on the short pass play and it'll be second down at five from the michigan 43 for the wolverines dogs went single safety there never bit on the flea flicker it happened so quick you saw it coming there's a handoff to haskins breaks free around the left edge oh that's donovan edwards excuse me a freshman from west bloomfield michigan who bounced out to the left and just right up the middle as they continue to run nothing fancy about that just finding daylight and he pushes that ball on the logo to the georgia 47 yard line and that's a gain of 10. it's a first down for michigan now they'll throw it where they go a little tempo out to the left it goes to edwards again on the pass play he's tumbled down in georgia territory at the 44-yard line well just a little swing past there michigan trying to get mcnamara involved in this football game that was intended to go out on the swing pass the entire way good job of the dogs coming up though and limiting yards after the catch the kobe dean with the stop for georgia second down seven balls on the bulldog 44 for michigan they trail seven to nothing here in the first quarter shotgun snap to mcnamara hands off to haskins hit on the left edge as he tries to turn the corner outside the numbers and that was quite a pop out on the perimeter by nicolby dean and nolan smith the two georgia linebackers and jalen carter also came in to get a piece of that stop boy great scrape right there by nicoby dean able to get through a little bit of traffic and deliver a blow really critical that with these running backs you get them on the ground after contact these are big physical runners that get a lot of yards after that initial hit dogs have got to take the fight to the wolverines today asking's fourth in the big ten in rushing this season picked up three there third down for mcnamara they throw the ball was tipped i think coming over the line of scrimmage he misses his target the tight end on a crossing route luke shoemaker a senior from connecticut from left to right across on the crossing route it looked like the ball from here to z took a funny direction as it crossed the line of scrimmage i almost thought it was tipped but maybe it wasn't i think it just went through the receiver's hands and then he he deflected it michigan though fourth down keeping their offense on the field fourth and four balls on the dog's 41-yard line georgia has a seven to nothing lead here first quarter of the orange bowl in the college football playoff they go with an empty backfield snap it back mcnamara in the pocket looks to the left throws it in that direction and it's off the hand of the intended receiver eric all the tight end incomplete into the boundaries where the ball ended up and that's it the dogs will take over on downs lewis seen was in coverage dogs sat back in coverage there only brought four against the empty set that was two empty sets in a row for for michigan dogs don't bring pressure against it sit back in coverage and a nice start here for the dogs on the first offensive and defensive series our first half is presented by attorney ken nugent injured you know who to call there's only one one call one eight hundred call ken the dogs take over michigan went forward on fourth and four from the georgia 41 an incomplete pass hands the ball over to the bulldogs james cook in the backfield with stetson bennett we bring mcconkey and motion around the quarterback throw it to him in the left flat with blocking mcconkey 45 mcconkey 50 near sideline they wrestle him out of bounds near the midfield stripe on george's side of the field and that'll be around a nine yard gain let's see where they spotted officially brad hawkins the free safety is the guy that was wrestling number 84 into the boundary dogs caught michigan in exactly the right look michigan again starts with two safeties bring one safety down and brought pressure off the slot we just throw a little screen pass to the outside right where the blitz was coming you can't dial it up any better he got nine second down and a yard to go ball is on the 50. bennett goes under center now cook deep in the backfield seven yards back stetson stretch handoff james cook beers right big hole cook straight down the middle one man to beat he's going to tackle him around the legs around the 30 or so well we talked about it pregame inside traps and then counter trays because those outside rushes of michigan get up field so quick there are huge gaping holes we did it right there massive hole for cook to run through down to the 29-yard line a gain of 21. warren mcclendon with a key block on that right side georgia goes quickly pump fake bennett throws it off left flat to cook cook at the 30 25 and a man goes low and cuts him down at the knees around the 21 and that's their leading tackler josh ross the middle linebacker from southfield michigan but georgia on the doorstep again here leading seven to nothing 6 29 to go first quarter the bulldogs are moving furiously boy great decision right there by stetson bennett was trying to take a shot downfield didn't like it felt the pressure coming right in his face able to get that to his checkdown second down and three for the dogs for the michigan 22 far end of the field split backfield now with mcintosh and white and mcintosh breaks out into the right side and stetson will throw it to him a screen to the right kenny mack makes the catch bowers trying to set it up with blocking around the 20. and michigan will come in and break up the play with a nice tackle at the 20-yard line r.j moton one of the safeties made the tackle on the wide side of the field uh we needed uh three i think on that last play we only got well we get two it's third and a yard to go at the 20 dogs in the massey ferguson red zone for the second straight possession well michigan right now bringing pressure relentlessly from a variety of different looks dogs countering a lot of screen passes a lot of things out on the edges bennett going to take it under center pitch it out to zameer wanting running wide to the right with blocking on that side and michigan played it well all the way to the boundary and he got the first down however he got a yard maybe a yard and a half tough to see from this angle trying to look at the spot of the football but zamir picked up the scanner energy first down and moved the sticks for the dogs as we get a little bit deeper into the massey ferguson red zone for just a student body right there for the dog stetson a traditional little uh pitch run on like that you're gonna turn and reverse that he goes down the line of scrimmage like an option and got it out of his hand quickly mcintosh the lone setback with uh stetson bennett in the shotgun snap it back hand it off to kenny mack with blocky he'll throw it into the end zone touchdown touchdown kenny mack threw it to a.d mitchell he was wide open in the michigan end zone touchdown georgia boy kenny mack threw that ball before a.d mitchell ever got out of his break he looks like he's been playing quarterback for years at the highest level and a little gift back to michigan we've seen michigan do that on tape throughout the year a little trickeration to the dogs payoff mitchell was so wide open it was just a matter of all right get my hands around the football don't drop it don't drop it he did not 18-yard touchdown throw kenny mcintosh it's 13 to nothing the point after is coming jackpot lesney lifts this one up high between the uprights and it's good and georgia with a 14 to nothing lead 4 41 to go first quarter our first half presented by attorney kent nugent over one and a half billion dollars recovered now there's a number and remember there's only one one call one eight hundred call ken dog sports by about three or four yards and that'll be the automatic touch back and the ball to the 25 for the wolverines scott this is an unfamiliar spot for michigan they have been great in the first half really good in the first quarters as well outscoring opponents this year 89-22 in first quarters of football games this year 227 to 76 in first half halves of games so really important for the dogs to get out to this kind of start a touchdown throw by mcintosh by the way the first by a non-quarterback for georgia all season long as you might guess and this will be a handoff michigan goes with jj mccarthy at quarterback now in this series and he'll run it with haskins straight up and haskins will pick up four to the 29 where nicolby dean the linebacker makes the stop for the bulldog defense the buckus award winner making another stop there boy nice run there by haskins able to get his hand on the ground he had contact right at the line of scrimmage been able to put a hand down keep his balance and fall forward for a nice first down pickup jj mccarthy in it quarterback the 6-3 freshman from lagrange park illinois he subs in periodically for mcnamara out of the shotgun takes the snap hands it off runs into the pile haskins tries to bounce out to his right but he takes white shirts with him the silver britches wouldn't let go trayvon walker and nolan smith hanging on for the tackle as he tried to bounce out haskins gonna lose a yard on the play i think no he got one yard excuse me third down and five is the down and distance balls on the michigan 30. it's 14 to nothing georgia here as we get a little deep into the first quarter three minutes and 30 seconds remaining and the clock is moving well nothing fancy there from the dogs on that one just two deep safeties but just a brick wall up front now mcnamara back in at quarterback in the shotgun takes the snap looking to throw here comes pressure throws it out wide to the left it's caught and out of bounds at the 35 is dalen baldwin a senior at 6-2 from southfield michigan pushed into the boundary by uh davion uh darion kendrick excuse me for georgia on the far side of the field and the ball's up gonna be spotted on the 36-yard line a pickup of six yards on that third down throw now just a quick hitch on the outside by baldwin kendrick in pretty good position dogs got some pressure on mcnamara there but such a quick route he was able to get the football out of his hands snap to mcnamara in the shotgun a play fake with time now i think he'll go down in a pile behind a massive humanity let's see if we can see who came out of the stack it was robert beale that got the sack and jalen carter all of a sudden the quarterback went down i couldn't see anything all of his linemen were still in front of him from this angle you can't see anything well that's because we just pushed the offensive line back into the lap of mcnamara he had nowhere to go a tremendous push right up the middle and nice coverage in the secondary by georgia's defense sack number 42 in the year for the dogs [Applause] second down 16 balls back on the 30 for michigan they lost six on that play mcnamara back to throw pass batted down back in the pocket kway walker the linebacker from cordial zipped in from the edge batted that pass down incomplete dog show cover too early brought a safety down quay walker came off the edge he knew he couldn't get there but able to get those big hands up in the air and swap that football away cade mcnamara wanted to go to haskins to his left he appeared to be open in the left flat but kway walker had another idea third down 16 to go on the 30. michigan on their own 30. third and extra long they'll empty out the set run a man in motion to the left and throw it to him in the left flat and coral makes the catch but wow what speed from the kobe dean who hustled to make the stop out on that left edge blake coram the sophomore with speed at 5-8 goes down shortly after he makes the grab balls on the 28-yard line he lost two and it's fourth down and 18 for michigan quorum came all the way across the formation there in motion to run that swing pass nacobi dean ran right there with him and was just shot out of a cannon as soon as that ball came out of mcnamara's hands nothing quorum could do brad robbins the michigan punter on to kick it away quieris jackson the deep receiver for georgia he's on r23 snap kick high hanging wobbly spiral quieris up at the 25 to call for the fair catch he'll make the grab there and georgia will have the possession with 110 to go in the first quarter it's georgia 14. michigan nothing right now 47-yard punt by michigan that time our first quarter recap is brought to you by ag georgia southwest georgia and ag south farm credit loans for land and farms well it's all georgia as you might guess with a two touchdown lead here in the first quarter let's take a look at some of the numbers how about stetson bennett seven for seven in the first quarter for 85 yards and a touchdown kenny mcintosh has a touchdown pass as well and he too is perfect one for one so the dogs passing attack eight for eight z in the first quarter on the ground we haven't really run the football a whole lot other than short yardage plays samir white four for 15. cook has a carry for 21 yards bowers already with three catches for 51 yards for the bulldogs well a lot of what we've been doing in the passing game right now just substitutes for a running game a lot of quick passes a lot of screens getting the football out of stetson bennett's hand safe throws georgia by bringing linebackers are bringing safeties let's see if they make an adjustment here after the first couple of series and get back into a little more traditional just straight cover two and see if that great defensive front for michigan can hold up against this georgia offensive line james cook is the deep back in the backfield stetson bennett under center cedric van brand ready to snap it bennett takes the snap handoff cook running left behind salyer and between salyer and darnell washington he angles to the left and will gain almost five yards on the play they'll mark it at about four and a half washington kind of hobbling to the sideline just a little bit but comes out of the ball game for georgia the game is almost a full five it'll be uh they'll call it second down at six however for the dogs clock under a minute under 45 seconds to go in the quarter as a matter of fact dogs right there straight at aidan hutchinson and a nice block by donaire washington pushing him backwards this time hutchinson on the right side and he jumps early dogs with a free play bennett will hang it up for jermaine burton he makes the catch deep down field on the sidelines no he's out of bounds caught the football but couldn't get the feet in bounds on the georgia sideline but michigan jumped early boy great recognition there by stetson knew he had a free play and just threw that football up in the air way early but had to get it out of his hands knowing that it was a free play take your shot hutchinson on the other side you just referred he was blocked well by darnell washington on the previous play he went to work on warren mcclendon's side of the line of scrimmage and jumped early on that last snap so a five yard pickup for the dogs and it'll be second down in one ball's on the 34. our own 34 we're moving to our left or away from us from this vantage point play fake bennett completes another pass down the line to bowers to the left he draws a crowd as he caught it at the 30 of the 31 aidan hutchinson number 97 the first one over there the 6-6 senior from plymouth michigan to wrap up bowers we lost yardage on the play that time lost a couple will be third down and three now ball on the 32 well that was all recognition there from your runner-up heisman candidate aiden hutchinson saw the bubble screen developing on the outside peeled back from his defensive end position and got to the boundary in a flash he was more like a nickelback that time than a defensive end pass rusher that's the last play of the quarter by the way cook's pest control sideline report with dj shockley shock hey fellas i love what we've done on first down well i think we've kept them off balance they've we got stuff going to the outside got a tall sweep she got going inside and another little nugget the touchdown by kenny mcintosh they said he was over aiding practice on that but he hit it when it count here in the game oh that's good stuff shot thank you wow well he still had a lot of faith in him to get it done and that was good to see third down and three for the dogs we're on our own 32-yard line now they're coming at us play fake from bennett he'll pull it down and throw it and it's caught george pickens on a quick slant from the left side gp makes his first catch of the game tackled by dj turner and the ball up to the 41-yard line that's a scanner energy first down the dogs go quickly from the 41. bennett over the middle big darnell washington goes up high had his hands on it but they hit him and the tackler is still down the ball came out of his hands incomplete he went up high reaching up high as we've seen so many balls go in washington's direction but brad hawkins the free safety who tried to tackle that massive humanity is still on the field shaken up on the play yeah we hope he's okay and that pass while incomplete really the only place stetson could could put the football you had the michigan safety coming over hard stetson just tried to back shoulder him on that inside seam route [Music] back inside the piedmont healthcare radio booth dogs second down to 10 from their own 41 leading 14 to nothing quick snap to bennett throw it out to the left side quieris jackson had a block from marcus rosami jack saint on this near sideline makes the catch and shakes his way up the field close to the 50 hit by josh ross the linebacker and dj turner the cornerback and he got eight yards to the 49's where they'll spot it snap back to bennett we're gonna run it kenny mcintosh looking for room just running down the line to his left looking for open space there wasn't much there they're gonna tackle him on the logo on the left side he did get some yards though he got positive yard got a first down at the michigan 48 yard line boy you never thought he was gonna get north and south finally ran into a blue jersey and stuck his foot in the ground and went enough to get the first down but missed a couple of holes in there before deciding to get north and south it looked like he was walking down the aisle of a bus look is there a seat is there a seat is there nope finally found a seat first and 10 47 yard line of michigan bennett in the pocket being chased hutchinson coming after him bennett's going to run it breaks a tackle 40 35 cuts oh what's the footwork inside the 30 down to the 26. turner had to tackle him into the secondary and that's why stetson bennett's in the ball game no doubt about it michigan has been hurt throughout the year with quarterbacks running the football great decision there by stetson had quick pressure able to get out did a little shake and bait 21 yards on the run bennett to throw it to the left side he's got some blockers over there zamir white out of the backfield makes the catch runs towards the michigan sideline and they'll pile him up around the 26. jalen harrell one of the linebackers from tampa florida makes the stop at the 26-yard line it's only a one-yard gain it'll be second down and nine for the dogs dogs using every inch of this field east and west and then they mix in a couple of shots north north and south but they're making this defensive front for michigan run all over the field boy really keeping the wolverines off balance here defensively cooks in the backfield with bennett second and nine from the michigan 26 shotgun snap to stetson with time throws for the end zone overthrows his man the tight end john fitzpatrick had uh cut off his route on the sideline around the 12 or 13 z and the ball lands about five or six yards over his head did stetson expect him to go a little bit deeper there or what yeah he did just by the looks of it i don't i think the dogs thought we were going to get some pressure there and had some man-to-man beaters on michigan ended up playing cover two really didn't have a good round on or a good option to throw the football so stetson just throwing that one up to where if anybody can catch it maybe it's your guy but let's live to fight another down third and nine the dogs four for four on third down so far in this game cook in the backfield bennett in the shotgun quick throw bennett caught and then dropped and then caught again i think by fitzpatrick but was he in bounds no incomplete he juggled it it bounced off his hands he caught it again but couldn't stay in bounds on the boundary far side of the field it's incomplete fourth and nine now the dogs will uh go reaching for a field goal here with jackpot lesney still would have been short of the first down and the dogs when you get into third medium third long situations against this pass rush you can see how quick you've got to get the football out it just reinforces the importance of staying ahead of the chains and getting into second to short third and short situations 44 yard try far hash kicking right the kick is away potts kick is good 44 yarder jack potlesny converts to make it 17 to nothing georgia second quarter action with 12 26 to go this will be jake camarda to kick it away from the far left end of the field in this direction to the right end and aj henning standing on the goal line set to return it for michigan if the opportunity arises but tomorrow has been booming through and beyond the end zone and here's another one long high booming powerful kick gonna land at the base of the bleachers behind the goal post and that'll be a touch back michigan will have the ball once again now trailing by three full possessions or three possessions not full because there's a field goal mixed in there but it's 17 points michigan will start first and 10 on their 25. now 42 yards of total offense for the wolverines and third first quarter dogs really doing a nice job up front doing a good job of mixing in some coverages we've brought some blitzes sat back in zone so really mixing up the defensive looks we're given michigan mcnamara takes the snap out of the shotgun going to run it with quorum oh eat him up big jordan davis swallowed him whole behind the line of scrimmage chasing him down he got that 340 pound body in full motion and chased down the 5-8 shifty running back unfair for a fan that size to be able to run like that just the quickness is uncanny able to scrape down the line of scrimmage get on quorum's back and nowhere that he can go lost yardage play lost a yard back to the 24 second 11 for michigan now dogs defensive line shifts mcnamara in the shotgun edwards is in the backfield he moves a little bit early they don't call anything mcnamara will throw quick uh pass over the middle to uh mike sandra still a junior receiver from everett massachusetts tackled by christopher smith and we'll see where they finally spot the football looks to be at the 34 yard line yep 30 yard to go so he got 10 of it back it was second and 11. need a yard michigan in tight gonna run it with haskins he hops over blockers at right tackle he'll get the first down just running through a little bit of a crease they don't need a whole lot of daylight for those guys he was able to pick up the first down on a short run to the right and it'll be first and ten michigan at the 34. that short little run netted four yards for the wolverines the haskers does a great job of getting his forward body lean and just as he runs through holes even with contact just pushing forward constantly moving his legs michigan will change quarterbacks they'll get mccarthy the dual threat guy in the ball game he tries to duel threat aside on the right side but jalen carter and nolan smith are going to protect the edge on the far side nolan smith sending the quarterback into the sideline on the far side of the field and out of bounds where they mark him uh who's having a tough time finding where the ball is the 39-yard line from this angle at the 39 he got a yard second down and one to go great job by nolan smith assignment football staying at home and then just keeping mccarthy in front of him second down and nine to go correction he got a yard they snap it back to mcnamara who checked back in the ball game clobbered as he throws a deep ball down the far sideline it's caught field in one-on-one coverage by roman wilson mcnamara really paid the price on the other end he beat kendrick down on the far sideline for a long game biggest play of the night for michigan so far as they'll spot him down kendrick made the tackle down around the georgia 20 down to the far end maybe just a foot or two inside well just a simple take off there by roman got behind kendrick immediately was playing catch up the entire time dogs brought pressure just couldn't get there 42 yards on the long pass play down the sideline so it's first and ten at the 19 for michigan 17 to nothing dogs we're in the second quarter here in the orange bowl play fake mcnamara fakes the reverse now he's going to go down too many fakes nicolby dean nolan smith they've seen that play before and mcnamara will go down way behind the line of scrimmage for the dogs after an sec championship game where we couldn't get into the offensive backfield not the case right now everything were dialing up were able to wreak havoc in the offensive backfield lost eight second down 18 ball back on the 27 now for michigan they're on the georgia 27 far into the left into the field mcnamara in the shotgun looks to his left looks right down the middle steps up avoids the rush splits our defense with a uh scramble inside the 25. i don't know how he got away from the kobe dean who was breathing down his neck in the pocket but mcnamara able to get out of some trouble and we hit him at the 25 with uh tramel walthauer and channing tyndall so it'll be third down and 16. he got two from this angle he was way back in the pocket see ran a long way but he only got a two yard gain out of it then he thought he had some room channing tyndall though was spying on mcnamara that play as soon as he stepped up in the pocket chaining tyndall immediately to the point of attack michigan third down and 16 from the georgia 25. moving to our left far end of the field mcnamara to throw caught on the right edge by the tight end all eric all the junior from fairfield ohio hit immediately out of as he goes out of bounds lewis seen the safety making the tackle and they'll spot him out at the around the 18-yard line just a yard inside the original line of scrimmage of the 19. it's fourth and nine for michigan they're going to try for a field goal here with jake moody who's money in the bank from this distance the groza award winner jake moody right footed kicker will kick from the far hash from our angle and kicking left as they raise the net behind the uprights to get on the board for the wolverines there's the snap and the hold and the kick is away and the kick is good michigan with a field goal to get on the board to make it to 17-3 time out with 7 16 to go in the second quarter first half presented by attorney kid nugent over one and a half billion dollars recovered now there's a number and remember there's only one one call one eight hundred call ken back after this to the orange ball on the bulldogs sports network [Music] back inside the piedmont healthcare radio booth here at hard rock stadium let's check in with dj shockley on the cook's pest control sideline shock hey fellas that last drive when georgia was on offense michigan started to bring a little bit more pressure playing a little bit more man and then where it is over here here from talking with some of the receivers and talking to coach hanken they're going to start taking more shots so look for more opportunities down the field to get some big shots here in the second quarter they continue to play more man thanks shock yeah they had a big 42-yard gain on that last field goal scoring drive here's the kick by michigan it's going to sail into the end zone and the dogs will make the fair catch there and we'll have the touch back at the 25-yard line here's your uh scoring summary brought to you by georgia metals from a dog house to a dog's house georgia metals has got you covered michigan with a 36-yard jake moody field goal a nine-play drive covered 57 yards and took 510 off the clock 17-3 as our score dogs lead here in the orange bowl second quarter and now georgia with the ball first and ten at its own 25-yard line far end of the field coming in this direction stetson bennett back in the shotgun with samir white in the backfield snap to stetson he throws caught brock bowers turned around face the line and scrimmage caught it at the 31 they hit him right there they've got a man shadowing bowers they stay right with him and that was rod moore the freshman safety that made the tackle after the catch but he got six yards to the 31. option route there by brock michigan played cover two on that option rod if it's man-to-man he gets up five or six yards and then breaks either to his left or his right against zone you just sit it down good recognition by both stetson and brock on that stetson bennett talking to the left side of his line of scrimmage there's a tight end out there as well washington second down handoff samir white he runs in that direction and the left edge is piled up pretty quickly by the michigan defense josh ross the linebacker he got a yard to the 32 so that'll bring up third down and three for the bulldogs who lead it 17-3 6-10 to go here in quarter number two dogs got the look that we wanted that was just an off tackle to our the left side of our offensive line we had michigan rotating safeties away from that coming into the field and we sent cook out to the near side from our vantage point empty set bennett in the pocket gonna throw a deep ball to james cook one on one over the shoulder caught it 30 25 20 they tackle him around the 15-yard line colson the junior colson the freshman linebacker from brentwood tennessee had to catch james cook after a long long pass play from bennett into the massey ferguson red zone down to the 15-yard line dogs are up ready to snap the football bennett's trying to get him to hurry georgia going tempo here after a long gainer quick snap to bennett goes for the end zone they're holding they're holding all they were holding jermaine burton and no flag two guys sitting there looking right at it and no penalty marker they clearly were holding him i can't believe there's no flag on that but you go back to the big play to james cook before that that's the matchup that you're looking for you get james cook on a linebacker then great eyes by stetson bennett to hold the safety and then you can't throw a more perfect pass 53 yards on that game by cook and then georgia got up to the line and went in a hurry in the massey ferguson red zone and just got ripped off on that last play there should have been a flag and the georgia fans saw the replay and they're letting everybody know it second down and 10 from the michigan 15. give it to cook on a sweep to the left sheds one tackler at the 18 but they're going to get him behind the line he couldn't quite get to the edge and michigan's defense stretched it out almost to the numbers on the far side of the field [Music] and they'll tackle cook at the 16-yard line he lost a yard yeah jet sweep there well played michigan able to stretch that out you're right on the the fade that we threw into the end zone don't know how they missed that he was getting his bra a jersey grabbed third down for the dogs third and 11 after a lost yardage play five out of six on third down so far in the game split backfield for georgia mcintosh and white stetson claps his hands they snap it bennett to throw down the middle caught by mcconkey running across makes the catch at the 10. they drag him down and that's dax hill who was the very talented nickelback that was questionable to play tonight because he was left back in michigan didn't say the reason but you can kind of figure out why he flew down late joined the team in the last couple of days and is playing tonight he made that tackle at the 10 for a six yard gain for georgia but it's fourth and six from the 11 and the dogs will try to punch through three more here from jackpot lesney we'll try about a 29 yard field goal just inside the far hash kicking in this direction to our right kick is away by jackpot it's good into the net actually i think he went over the net that was a nice high kick from jackpot lesney three more for the dogs and it's 20 to three georgia leads michigan with 350 to go booth georgia 20. michigan three 350 to go in the first half of the orange bowl our first half is presented by attorney ken nugent injured in a wreck there's only one one call that's all one eight hundred call ken jake camarda to kick it off after the jackpot lesney 28 yard field goal seven plays 64 yards and 326. on the scoring drive here's kamartha's kick another boomer by the right-footed senior you know over the back of the end zone for the touchback and georgia's scoring drive of 7 and 64 and 326 with the points provided by jackpot lesney the 28 yard field goal that's your georgia metals drive somewhere from a doghouse to a dog's house georgia metals has got you covered michigan on their own 25-yard line after another touchback by jake demarta 20-3 getting late here in the second quarter haskins takes the carry and will try to bounce down the line to his right louisiana gonna wrap him up first they never got him to the turf but they stop his forward progress on the far side of the field again from this angle we're reversed from what many of you may be watching on television tonight we're on the opposite side in the corner so our descriptions may not match up with the pictures uh it stopped him at the 26. it was a one-yard gain yeah great job there by louisiana coming up securing the edge good job by the interior defensive line as well snap to mcnamara throws it left flat to aj henning he came in motion from the far side and mcnamara hits him on the left side dean and then william poole also hit aj henning on the near sideline and where do they stack him up they make the tackle at the 27-yard line again only a one-yard play for michigan they're taking their time they don't want georgia to get the ball back dogs have scored every time we've had it well this is an important part of this football game right now but the last couple of drives in the first half especially with michigan getting the football want to get the wolverines off the field right now third and eight wolverines from their own 27. mcnamara in the shotgun pressure from everywhere steps up gets away but not from nolan smith number four dragged him down as he tried to step up in the pocket and take off smith with the tackle at the where are they going to spot him down around the 27 or so for just relentless pressure right there from nolan smith timeout georgia second of the half game clock operator please reset the game clock two minutes 22 seconds two two two scott campbell our referee out of the big 12 conference 214 remaining big play by nolan smith i'm not sure if that officially goes in the books as a sack the line of scrimmage was the 27th one two two michigan on fourth and eighth expected to punt it away the dogs call time to save precious seconds on the clock with 222 remaining we invite you to stay tuned for the braided pest management halftime report coming up with neil williamson he's standing by for that as soon as we make our way through the first half the halftime report protected by breda pest management with breda you don't have to be afraid of bugs tremendous pressure on that third down play coming from channing tendail trayvon walker and jalen carter all flush mcnamara up into the pocket michigan's brad robbins stands on his between the 12 and 13 to receive the snap kicking away dogs come after it almost got it with marcus rosenby jack saint but robin's punt is a long kick hanging high and a fair catch called for on the other end by kierris jackson in the vicinity of the 31 to the 32-yard line 48-yard punt rosemary jack saint was oh so close to getting a hand on that ball as he came in uh from the left edge trying to rush the punt and get a hand on that football i'm not sure how he missed it he was right there look they were standing in front of the the punter and then a good job of holding up and making sure he didn't run into him george on its own 31 leading 20-3 2 15 to go second quarter here in this playoff game in miami empty set for the dogs bennett will take the snap and throw it to his left it's complete down the line george's offensive line trying to move the pile it's still upright no whistles yet they've moved the pile it was it was kenny mcintosh in the middle of the pile couldn't see who caught the ball he was just swallowed up by huge bodies over there give the offensive line some credit for that one one two two three three 43 yard line yeah just a bubble screen on the outside didn't look like it was going anywhere until those big boys got involved 12 yards and a first down dogs bennett to throw hangs one up far sideline there's some hand fighting going on ball sails over the head incomplete out of bounds trying to go to a.d mitchell battling with jermon greene the senior cornerback from desoto texas on the michigan sideline stetson bennett fake the draw out a shotgun there trying to lull michigan to sleep again a lot of hand fighting on the outside no flag again second down and ten clock stops with a minute 46 on the incomplete pass georgia up by 17 balls on our 43. we're coming this way bennett in the backfield with james cook snap to bennett the quarterback steps to his right hands up a long pass deep caught burton 25 so long 10-5 touchdown jermaine burton [Applause] he's going to soak it up in the end zone as he stands and welcomes the cheers of the georgia fans on this back end zone and what a throw from stetson bennett he got flushed out of the pocket and almost just heaved it up like he was trying to throw the football away as he was under duress and i think it lulled michigan to sleep a little bit the defensive back for michigan and burton both stopped and then burton located the football and took off and nobody was close to him burton beat vincent gray 57 yards on the strike from bennett to jermaine burton and he was loving it after that one point after try jackpot lesney up and good oh dogs fans are loving it all right now here in south florida 27-3 georgia landed on michigan here with a minute 38 to go in quarter number two [Music] what a series you talk about the importance of the end of the first half and how critical it is to hold defensively take some shots and opportunities if you get them offensively but eliminate that two for one there's still time on the clock right now still have football left but so far so good for the good guys see looking at a replay it looked like burton may have given vincent gray a little bit of a fake a little bit of a hitch late in his route and gray bit on it and slowed down and then burton just rammed right by him and stetson with a perfect pass right in his arms in stride for the long 57-yard touchdown the dogs go 69 yards in three plays it only took 37 seconds and a 57-yard bennett to burton touchdown pass that's your georgia metals drive summary from a dog house to a dog's house georgia metals has got you covered well that's two deep balls and stetson ben has thrown in this football game that you just can't throw any better one to burt one to james cook both drawn up is they're pitcher perfect jake kamarda will drill another long kickoff i think he did get the seats this time or at least somebody leaning over the front row way behind the end zone got a hand on the football and that's a long touch back jake camarda quite the weapon on the other end of the field and michigan will have it at the 25-yard line trailing now 27-3 with 98 seconds to go second quarter here in the orange bowl they'll start at the 25. mcnamara in at quarterback quorum is the back in the backfield off to the quarterbacks left george has got three men with a hand on the ground and chanting tyndall here comes tyndall from the edge mcnamara gets the ball out will throw it is intercepted by kendrick kendrick coming across the way backtracked michigan thought there was holding or interference on the far sideline wanted to go to roman wilson but kendrick picked off the pass the clemson transfer does his magic and gives the dogs the ball at the michigan 49 yard line he was running back this way to try to find a clear path to the end zone he backtracked from the point where he intercepted the football but the dogs will take it there's still time on the clock and a lot of it with a minute 28 to go georgia's got it on the michigan 49. boy great job there by kendrick gave a little dig like he was going to open up to the outside and go zone jump back into the inside playing man to man i think confused mcnamara mcnamara trying to go back shoulder but through that field interception previous play on the front of the review well you heard the referee scott campbell they're going to review this one the play under reviews brought to you by pruitt health where family makes a stronger proud partner of the georgia bulldogs if it holds up kendrick who's already got the savage pads on on the georgia sideline it'll be his third interception of the season and that would lead the team but they were going to review it yeah looking at the review now both guys were kind of on the sideline fighting for space and it looked like both guys stepped out of bounds kendrick steps out of bounds and comes back in and was it tipped by michigan or no it was the first player to touch the ball was kendrick who bobbled it caught his own tip for the apparent interception now they're reviewing it here in miami and they'll determine whether or not the interception will count big 12 conference officials here scott campbell is the referee he's got the headset on looking into the video monitor and [Music] listening to the voices from above and guidance on how to determine the outcome of this play well the one big surprise right now in the first half is the amount of pressure and the way this georgia defense is getting into the offensive backfield of michigan michigan coming into this game led the country and tackles for loss or fewest against tackles for loss third in the country in sacks and the dogs have just been relentless right now in the offensive backfield of michigan as we continue to watch a replay now z there was a head-to-head collision on a block by christopher smith on roman wilson after the interception now helmets collided there i'm not sure if they're looking at that or not there was no targeting called but there doesn't have to be one call they can go back and look at that if they deem that was the case ruling on the field is an interception during the return personal foul targeting number 29 return team that 15-yard penalty will be enforced from the end of the run number 29 has been disqualified georgia completely caught off guard looking at the reaction of kirby smart and christopher smith on that the interception is good but now we've lost our starting safety one of them christopher smith is out for the rest of the ball game and if there's another one the first half of that game as well that's right if if georgia is fortunate enough to win this ball game then in the national championship game christopher would miss the first half against alabama who's already advanced let's pause 10 seconds station identification bulldogs sports network your second quarter recap presented by ag georgia southwest georgia and ag south farm credit loans for land and farm the it's been all bulldogs in both quarters not just the second 27-3 is our score the dogs 316 yards of offense in the first half 101 from michigan stetson bennett's been red hot 16 of 21 passing the football for 234 yards and two touchdowns kenny mcintosh has an 18-yard touchdown pass as well brock bowers has already caught five balls for 55 yards and a score james cook has a couple of catches mitchell has two mcintosh has two we haven't run the ball a heavy amount zameer's run it five times for 16. cook three for 24. on and on and on it goes for georgia who's had a lot of success but now we've lost christopher smith for the rest of the ball game on a targeting call georgia after the penalty will have the ball via the interception at our own 36 we're gonna hand it off run it straight up the gut between the tackles and that is zamir white stutter stepping his way through for a few extra yards and samir will pick up seven to the 43-yard line and the dogs with a minute nine minute eight leading at 27 to three dogs still taking their time right now if we get a first down here look for us to pick up the tempo then it back in the shotgun with white van praying with the snap hand off samir runs straight ahead a little bit to the right and right tackle going to be tackled by the linebacker junior colson the freshman and down to the turf goes zeus at the 44 only got a yard third down and two dogs look like they're satisfied with just getting the rest of the time off the clock 30 seconds to go and adam gillespie getting excited because there's a country music show coming on at halftime a pretty good spot right here if the dogs get the look they want with single safety to maybe take one more shot third down and two from the 44 will run it again with 13 seconds to go dogs ran it in there with zeus once more oh they work on the logo they'll spot the ball down at midfield right at the 50. hawkins the tackle the free safety and barrett one of their edge rushers five seconds to go four dogs will take one more snap they fake the pitch and throw a pass lob it over the head of zamir white and that will be the last play of the half as the clock has hit triple zero after 30 minutes of play and in completion to win the quarter and the first half but what a half it was for the sec runners-up georgia 27 michigan three halfway through the 2021 orange ball on this new year's eve in miami gardens florida will step aside coming back we'll have a few words from the head coach kirby smart he'll chat with dj shockley on the cook's pest control sidelines jay what'd you say the most first half yards for stetson bennett in his career here's the kick by jake camarda and he'll send it over the back of the end zone once again all touchbacks for kamarta tonight and there's another one six for six on kicking that ball where they can't return it so michigan will start first and 10 at the 25-yard line in a deep hole here but still a lot of football to play so let's not get ahead of ourselves okay mcnamara in that first half eight out of 12 did have one interception only 17 or 72 yards through the air first and 10 michigan on the 25 we'll watch it from the piedmont healthcare radio booth michigan will run it on the first play straight into a pile of bodies as we've seen numerous times haskins with the carry stacked up middle of the line no gain on the play jordan davis and trayvon walker the reason why there was no gain jordan davis took up a lot of space and made the tackle well i'll tell you trying to run right up the middle of this defense with jordan davis and the kobe dean always going to be tough sledding man in motion around the back of the quarterback mcnamara he'll throw it out to the left side a reaching catch by haskins the running back on the far sideline is made at the 35 yard line and hit there on the sideline by lewis seen but a gain of 10 and a first down on the throw to haskins well if you can't run it i guess we got to throw it to him because michigan's got to get the ball in asking's hands somehow for the senior from st louis missouri could have just been a side adjustment there we brought william poole off the slot brought lewis scene down from his safety position hask is just on a swing route out of the backfield haskins has only rushed for 13 yards tonight mcnamara tries to escape the pocket tries to leak out to his right but chased down by trayvon walker and others a cast of many they're chasing down the michigan quarterback and they'll tackle him down at the 29 yard line it looks like down with that into the field and that'll be the third sack of the game by this bulldog defense and the loss is back to the 29 six yards loss on the sack well just a simple stunt up front but the dogs again able to find creases in that offensive line and get penetration three dogs in on the pressure there empty set mcnamara throws out of the pocket to his left to quorum who tried to make a one-handed diving catch it's incomplete at the 35-yard line the kobe dean and lewis seen over there dean was in coverage of blake coram who's normally a handful both in the backfield and trying to cover very fast five eight only five eight two hundred pounds but dogs take care of business on that play it's third and long for michigan from their 29th third down at 16. mcnamara claps his hands we jump a little bit i don't think we're offsides he'll throw it and wrestled away by the tight end over the middle is eric all the all-conference tight end for michigan was able to pull it away from william poole in the middle of the field and that's a big pass play for michigan and they pick up the first side number 88 defense that penalty is declined result of the play first down dan jackson made the stop he's in the game with no christopher smith and it was jalen carter that jumped off sides penalty declined ball up to the 50 a gain of 21 for michigan first down for the wolverines at midfield going to hand it off to haskins he got a block on the near edge he's still running into georgia territory inside the 40 down close to the 30-yard line finally tackling and grabbing him and forcing him out of bounds is lewis seen at the georgia 31 yard line he got 19 on that one dogs may have gotten away with the face mask as well at the end of that play first and ten michigan on the dog's 31-yard line we had him backed up on third and long but let him get away now they've had a couple of gash plays snap to mcnamara hand off haskins this time he won't get far he runs it left tackle and left guard and will be jammed up there by i think fields the linebacker julian rochester and jalen carter the initial tacklers for the dogs defense dogs showed pressure there forced michigan to check dogs countered that check with one of their own got back into more of a of a zone look the game of cat and mouse dogs won that one haskins got three to the 28 so it's second down and seven for the wolverines they trail 27-3 first possession of the second half mcnamara to throw it in the left flat dropped by edwards out of the backfield donovan edwards the freshman was in motion to the left mcnamara hit him in stride right in the hands and it just popped right out incomplete yeah just a bubble straight on the outside if he had room to run william poole was coming up in support a nice cut block on william got him to the ground so fortunate there for the dogs that one was dropped and put on the turf third and seven for the wolverines they're three of seven on third down and they'll switch quarterbacks they'll get jj mccarthy the freshman into the ball game on third down and nine third down at seven excuse me balls on the 28 of georgia and michigan is going to call a timeout [Applause] first half time out on the field 11 42 on the clock third quarter michigan with a big third down play coming up after the break our second half tonight back inside the piedmont healthcare radio booth third down at seven from the 28th from michigan and they'll get the ball between the hash marks to eric all the tight end on the pass play by the wolverines jay mccarthy and will tackle all at the 18-yard line and that's enough for the first down for the wolverines as they poke their head inside the bulldogs red zone now well bulldogs brought the kobe dean on pressure away from where eric all caught a little angle route but once he caught it because we brought pressure there had plenty of running room to get the first down dan jackson made the tackle in the secondary 10-yard gain from michigan in a first down mcnamara back in play fake handoff haskins trying to sweep around to the near side and haskins going to be swept out his legs swept out from under him around the 15 to 14 and a half maybe nolan smith on the stop for the bulldog defense but michigan in here deep now threatening in their first possession of the second half they trail 27-3 10 44 on the clock here in the third quarter great scrape there by nolan smith it looked like haskins had an alley to run through but out of nowhere came nolan haskins behind mcnamara in this formation they've got a tight end offset as a fullback or an h-back and early movement by michigan's offensive line that'll be a false start on the wolverines looking like the right tackle stuber the all-conference and potential first round draft pick for the wolverines that moved early number 77 offense five yard penalty let's go second down they say it was keegan the guard and not the tackle maybe it was more than one guy i saw stuber move too we pointed at him and the other guy was moving on the other side [Applause] that was a take your pick second down 11 ball back on the 20. for michigan wolverines trying to get in the end zone for the first time tonight dogs defense has other plans mcnamara throws to the end zone intercepted again kendrick in the end zone steps out of the back corner that'll be a touch back for georgia's second pick of the game for darien kendrick for kendrick was in great position mcnamara thought his receiver was going to continue to the back of the end zone on a corner route his receiver just stopped kendrick goes there and an easy pick for him not sure why baldwin just stopped running his route he might have had something to do with fighting to deny that interception as it is it's the ball uh going to the dogs we'll have it at the 20 when of the night dogs have it on the touch back george's ball first and 10 on our 20. leading 27-3 third quarter with 102 to go james cook in the backfield stetson bennett in the shotgun mcintosh in motion now back the other way with a little return motion we hand it to cook and there's a man in the backfield immediately that will wrap up cook ross the linebacker shot the gap james was able to get the football back to the line of scrimmage he may have gotten it just across yeah about the length of the football he that's what he gained so it's uh second down a long nine they call it second down to 10 and no gain but he did get a little bit of a yard a portion of one yeah one of the few times tonight we just whiff on the offensive line ross came in on a linebacker blitz right into the a gap we just missed him cook shifts from left to right behind bennett in the shotgun stetson takes the snap hands at the cook again runs on an angle to the left into a crowd of bodies there hutchinson was won they also had christopher hinton from johns creek georgia played at greater atlanta christian school he makes the stop gets up off the bottom of the pile the 6-4 junior 310 pounds the gain was two balls on the 22. cook comes out zamir comes in also look who's back kendall milton in the backfield now in a split backfield formation opens been out a long time with an injury knee injury on the right leg he's got it wrapped up and braced up tonight third down for the dogs from our own 22 snap to bennett passing situation now he's going to run runs out of the pocket they're chasing from behind he'll throw it back across his body oh it's dangerous bro that just does land incomplete at the bulldogs 40 michigan had a guy reaching for it downfield in front of one of our receivers almost got a hand on it fortunately that ball lands incomplete and we can kick for the first time tonight well stetson got away with one there that's the the golden rule never run to your right throw across your body into the middle of the field pretty good coverage there by michigan downfield and stetson with a guy in his face tries to throw it up to lad mcconkey fortunate that one wasn't picked off jake camarda to punt for the first time tonight takes the snap at the eight here they come they don't get it and kamara gets off a boomer back to henning collects it at the 20-yard line makes one man miss still running now far side of the field we're chasing he's at the 35 to 38 and tackled out of bounds uh the vicinity of the 40. second half tonight brought to you by first franklin financial go see the friendly franklin folks at one of their convenient georgia locations as we welcome you back inside the piedmont healthcare booth here at hard rock stadium in miami gardens florida camarda's punt was 54 yards but henning's return was 16 and michigan set up at their own 40-yard line trailing 27-3 with eight minutes and change to go in the third quarter first and ten for the wolverines here comes the blitz they pick it up mcnamara throws off the hand of quorum the short little dump pass right over the line of scrimmage and coram got a hand on it but nothing else it's incomplete it'll be second and ten michigan and just off target there for mcnamara quorum just out of the backfield just ran sat down on a little spot route mcnamara about three or four yards off had pretty good protection we did bring a linebacker michigan that time nice job of picking it up the blitzing linebacker was chanting tyndall and now michigan will change the quarterback they'll get j.j mccarthy back in the game the freshman empty set second 10 from their 40. snap back to mccarthy looks to his left and throws passes caught around the 45 or the 46 by uh cornelius johnson who coming into the game was their leading receiver 37 catches kendrick made the tackle right on the spot and they'll spot him up at the 30 let me get the 47 47-yard line it was a gain of seven it's third down and three for the wolverines they'll keep the freshman in at quarterback mccarthy one back in the backfield that's coram to his left michigan coming in this direction here in our viewpoint hand it off the corner be fun with the football we fumbled it and it looks like george is going to recover there's still a fight for it at the georgia 44 yard line the dogs tried to get on that thing it was wiggling all over the field dogs think they have it is there an official sign first down what do they call first down georgia okay georgia has recovered the fumble third turnover of the game for michigan as coram came through the line he got stripped and the ball went bouncing the kobe dean ripped it out of his arms and then the chase was on to get on the football and we couldn't see who was on the bottom of the pile to to recover it we'll look at a replay wyatt had a good shot at it but i don't think he ended up with it i think it squirted out from underneath him but he can find out who has the savage pads on the sideline and that'll be the determining factor who's got the pads on it is wyatt wyatt apparently recovered the fumble for the dogs michigan's turned it over three times for the first time this season dogs with the ball on our own 44. here we go can we strike again bennett with time to throw looks deep flagged down throws it over the middle oh my goodness what a catch kieras jackson with one hand but it might be for naught two flags in the georgia backfield yeah that's in the vicinity of where a holding call is gonna be gonna be made but you're right pierce jackson going over the middle absolutely no fear goes up with one hand right in front of the michigan safety and hauls it in down at the wolverines three fouls on the play both by the offense holding number 69 offense that penalty is decline personal foul face mask number 69 offense that penalty enforced 15 yards from the previous spot still first down jamari salyer got his money's worth on that one he was having a rough time with uh i didn't see who he was blocking that time but that wipes out a a big momentum play for georgia and we'll uh back us up a little bit back to the what 29 yard line now the dogs on our own 29. and it'll be first in 25 so behind the sticks here on first down from our own 29. well they called sawyer it may have been warren mcclendon he had hutchinson bull rushing him on the outside and had him in a headlock split backfield with milton and cook we run cook out to the right they tip a ball to the right side he still catches it cook breaks a tackle at the 32 up the far sideline in front of the michigan bench across the 40 and tackled around the 43 by colson one of their linebackers and the ball was tipped throwing it down the line bennett had it tipped by dax hill who was in the georgia backfield somehow that ball still got to james cook and he was still able to catch it although it was wobbling and dying and when it got to him but he's still able to get yardage in fact he got 13 yards and second down in 12. for a huge pick up there just a bubble screen and you're right dax hill couldn't have played that any better outside of knocking it down ball at the 42 play fake and a dump to bowers is incomplete and that ball was tipped hill got another one came in to tip it from bennett who looked like he kind of jumped and tried to throw it to his left to brock bowers and hill was able to get a finger on that one as well and deflect the ball away so it didn't get to the target that's an incomplete pass and it'll be third down and 12 for the dogs well michigan right now pinning their ears back and boy they are coming they know the only they've got to get stops they can take chances right now nothing to lose and they are coming after stetson bennett mcintosh runs out of the backfield would go with an empty set stetson in the shotgun snap quick throw left to mcintosh for a screen kenny mack 50 kenny mac 45 kenny back down to the michigan 40. mike morris the defensive end a reserve guy had to make the tackle way down field and mcintosh on that nice play from stetson bennett picks up a scanner energy first down all the way down to the michigan they spotted on the 41-yard line great play call there by coach buck and he saw the intense pressure that michigan was putting on to stetson bennett just run a little screen pass slip your offensive line out get him in front of kenny mack nice pick up for the first down burton with a block on the edge to help macintosh go for 18. toss to samir white left side sameer once through the first wave on the near sideline zoos they like that contact at the end tackled by gray who paid the price around the 30-yard line right on the 30 as a matter of fact a gain of 12 and another scan of energy first down dogs moving now in a hurry first and 10 on the wolverine 30 far end of the field here at hard rock stadium boy nice blocks there by sawyer and schaefer you go back to the play before cedric van parent brand had a nice block as as well zeus stays in the backfield with bennett who's in the shotgun here comes the snap gonna move to his left a little dump pass left flat to zeus gets to the sideline that was easy pickings right there zeus steps out of bounds without being touched they both just kind of move to their left in unison one step two step here comes the ball and zeus caught it and to the sideline he goes down to the 21-yard line a gain of nine second down and one it was a swing pass but that's nothing more than a toss sweep going away from an oncoming blitzer now we will toss it to the right side a sweep to the right with samir white big darnell washington out in front trying to block michigan will tackle him on the far sideline looks around the 17 yard line a gain of four as we pause station identification bulldog sports network [Applause] 4 11 to go in the third quarter dogs in the massey ferguson red zone toss to cook to the right a sweep with blocking by the tight ends cook slams on the brakes inside the 10. flag comes in from the referee behind the play and that's going to wipe out a game that ended up inside the 10 for the dogs and james cook fitzpatrick was out in front blocking as was warren mcclendon but the referee scott campbell from the big 12 conference saw something and hoisted the flag to the turf holding number zero offense 10 yard penalty from the spot of the foul still first down well they got big darnell washington for a hold and uh we're having to overcome some penalties on this possession z but if we can boy that speaks highly of the way we're able to move the football yeah there's no doubt about it already have overcome one personal foul with the face mask that was called on sawyer may have been on on mcclendon able to overcome that one see if we can do it again first and 14 now the yardage back on the michigan 20. cook in the backfield james going to get the carry there was a hole at right tackle there's another flag as cook gets jammed up inside the 20 after a gain of maybe a couple they throw him back here comes another flag and we'll see what this one is about that one was thrown by the center judge personal foul chop block number 69 and 19 high low combination 15-yard penalty from the previous spot still first down boy now you have to worry about just field goal range and getting some kind of points out of here well that time keeps ticking away from michigan they're down 24 points and we're at 3 30 to go and a game that's been marred by very few penalties all of a sudden racking up on the dogs first and 31. you don't see that one a lot we're back on the michigan 35. run out of the pistol zeus behind bennett play fake stetson sets up the throw pressure rolls away from it to his left scrambling and looking still with the ball in his hands to the 30 hesitates and now drilled out of bounds into the georgia bench area [Applause] one the dog bench wanted to flag over there on a late hit on stetson couldn't see all the contact at the end of the play just because of all the bodies on the sideline and where we're positioned here in the piedmont healthcare booth uh but he got to the 28. and stetson holding on to that football for a long time if he had a split second more looks like he had i'm not sure who it was but on a deep post running down the field would have had a shot at being able to get to him it was a.d mitchell bennett scrambled for nine goes under center this time we'll take it and roll to the right might be a broken play bennett just running towards the sideline will heave it into the seats throws it away incomplete as soon as he pulled the ball out from under the center and rolled to the right that looked like a disaster waiting to happen i don't know if zamir white was in the backfield but he was unable to pick up anybody blocking and michigan had three or four guys bearing down on stets unfortunately he was able to throw the ball away yeah there was no receiver in that vicinity it was a naked bootleg as he was going out a little like a busted route from somebody so no receiver was in of bennett's field of vision third and 22 from the wolverines 28 yard line penalties have hurt us on this possession bennett rolls to the right throws it towards the end zone and broken up on the far sideline down inside the 10 by michigan trying to get it to lad mcconkey who was running to the far corner dj turner the cornerback on that side from swaney georgia was able to get over in front of him and break up the play incomplete pass brings up fourth down and 22 now for the dogs too many penalties too much to overcome to get in the end zone we'll try to go for three here with jackpot lesnar yeah good coverage there by michigan dogs again trying to move the pocket we had three guys on hutchinson there but he was still able to break through that and apply some pressure 46-yard try near hash kicking left kick is away towards the upright no good missed it to the left michigan football first and ten on their own 28 after a long miss field goal try by the dogs mcnamara in the shotgun at quarterback gonna throw it over the middle and it's caught immediately tackled its edwards and tackled by kwai walker number seven tackled by number seven quay walker the linebacker makes the stop middle of the field only a two yard gain to the 30. dogs staying aggressive single safety brought william poole again off the slot just time after time mcnamara wants to throw escapes tackled sacked ball is out stripped the michigan fallback on it i think they did i think they were able to recover their fumble they put it on the ground again as the quarterback tried to step up in the pocket and lose the rush he got it stripped nolan smith may have been the guy that stripped him he was a strip sack but georgia apparently couldn't recover the fumble had another opportunity for turnover number four couldn't get it boy that ball reversed right back into mcnamara's arms and it was trayvon walker that had the initial pressure forcing mcnamara out of the pocket third and eight michigan on their own 30. they breathe a sigh of relief and they've got mccarthy in there the other quarterback one back in the backfield that's edwards mccarthy takes the snap sets and throws complete over the middle to the tight end all we're having trouble getting him on the ground made the catch right around midfield on the big orange bowl logo dan jackson and the kobe dean finally tackled him but way down field at the georgia 45 yard line a gain of 25. dogs didn't bring pressure that time sat back in coverage and he just got away from kwai walker in that inside skinny post mccarthy stays in there throws it wide and high to his right intended target was roman wilson about four yards in from the georgia sideline and the 35 yard line and mccarthy had too much mustard on it and air mailed it into the bench yeah again under pressure on that one forcing the high throw but roman wilson was open on a little out route 23 seconds to go in the third quarter 27-3 georgia leading michigan here in the orange bowl second down 10 on the 45 of georgia wolverines with a and there's the snap to mccarthy looks to his left now he's going to scramble and roll balls in his right hand he pump fakes and he runs right into quay walker who knocks him back into yesterday holy smokes laid a blow at the 40-yard line i mean mccarthy didn't try to slide he didn't try to juke he just took the full brunt of that hit from number seven boy it was textbook clay walker was out in coverage and actually hiding behind the michigan wolverine he was guarding then threw him away right at the last minute and blew up mccarthy he got four yards the hard way to the 41. that's the last play of the quarter we go to the final 15 here in northwest miami florida in the orange bowl georgia leading michigan 27 to 350. fellas the one thing that he saw coach smart during that timeout walk up to most of the guys and even in that defensive huddle and the one thing he said was composure keep our composure 15 minutes away and finish his ball game off no more chippiness he didn't want nothing nobody gets thrown out of his ball game but he said the number one thing is stay composed good advice shock thank you very much 27-3 with 15 minutes remaining for a trip to indianapolis and the national championship to face the alabama crimson tide on january 10th dogs up 27-3 start of the fourth quarter third down and six for michigan now on the georgia 41. mccarthy chased out of the pocket nolan smith going to chase him paul couldn't get his legs stays upright and he throws it almost intercepted out of bounds on the left end of the field he just threw the pass dan jackson was diving as he was running out of space down on the receiving end almost intercepted the ball all of it i believe i was shielded by bodies down there but it looked like it was all out of bounds anyway and boy nolan smith z came really close to getting uh jj mccarthy in his legs as he tried to scramble out of the pocket boy did he did he ever came all the way from his outside linebacker position on a stunt right over the center into the a gap just continued that circle route in hot pursuit of mccarthy fourth and six on the georgia 41 michigan gonna go for it snap to mccarthy here comes pressure he fires across the field too high incomplete over mike sandra still the junior receiver who's 5 10. he needed to be about 7 10 to catch that ball [Music] back inside the piedmont healthcare radio booth 14 46 remaining dogs take over on downs first and 10 at our 41. we'll run it straight ahead bennett the handoff to the back into the pile and that was kendall milton getting to carry kendall's first carry in quite some time as he recovers from uh injury and good to see him back in the lineup the 6-1 sophomore from fresno california the dogs have found themselves in this position for so much of the year big lead going into the fourth quarter now let me put it on the backs of this offensive lineman and ice this game milton got a yard second nine from the 42 dogs will keep it on the ground again here with a lot of time remaining in the fourth quarter we'll run it into the pile michigan stacks it up our offensive line trying to move folks around and that was milton again on the carry and after they unpile everyone we'll see where they spot the football looks like around the 47 or so and that time kendall got five so it's third down and four pretty good push there right behind the back of cedric van praan and warren erickson now zeus is in the backfield we run a man in motion brock bowers now he sets up in the backfield and bennett hole he eludes hinton the rusher and rolls out to his left and tries to scramble for the first down i i think he got it as he crosses the 50 into michigan territory down around the 47. that is a scan of energy first down hinton came straight at him and as if uh stetson had eyes all around his head was able to take a jab step to the right and roll to the left and elude the pass rush and left hinton grabbing it air boy what an athletic move right there justin shafer was over hit and hitting got inside of him with just a little inside move but stetson able to spin out of that and the athleticism again pays off on the michigan 48 keep it on the ground run it power football between the tackles offensive line moving blue shirts back and that's samir white running behind a lot of beef in front of him and you can hear the crowd zeus as they pick up a few yards and move the pile and demoralize michigan a little bit more with 11 making 12 30 remaining in a 27-3 lead balls on the 42 second down and four with just a big aggressive run of that offensive line just pushing the pile zeus in the backfield with bennett second four again on the michigan 42-yard line for the dogs as they come this way michigan crowds the box run it with zeus they latch on around the 40-yard line smith the nose tackle jumped on zamir's back trying to ride him down he kept running he had blockers still blocking in front of him trying to get every inch that he can ball just inside the michigan 40. he got a couple gonna be third in a yard third down a measly one from the 39. james cook checks in to the contest will bring two tight ends tight on the left edge or the right edge of the line of scrimmage for georgia cooks in the backfield with bennett who's in the shotgun snap to bennett want to throw on third and short hook it up for cookies wide open caught 21 15 10 hops into the end zone touchdown james cook a homecoming for cook who's from south florida touchdown dogs what's that i hear hammer and nail and coffin 33-3 dogs lead it for james cook just able to slip out of the backfield and was running down the field like a lone ranger nobody was around him at all stats had been unable to go find him and you're right send this one home stetson got clobbered on the delivery but was still able to deliver the mailman appropriately enough to james cook over 300 yards passing tonight point after try jackpot leslie splits the pipes it's good so the 39-yarder from bennett to cook gives george of the big ole fat lead and that's your georgia metals drive summary from a dog house to a dog's house georgia metals has got you covered and uh chris giovanni's brothers wanted me to say hello to them tonight so hello to all the shivani brothers tonight but we're not saying hey to the dad here's the kick by jake kamarda that's gonna be another touch back into the end zone that was the message right chris okay yeah he's not in his head yes [Music] michigan will have the ball at the 25-yard line trailing 34-3 11-11 to go in the game quite the performance here by the georgia bulldogs in all aspects of this football game michigan came into this contest probably the hottest team coming out of the regular season and in conference championships but boy they ran into a buzz saw tonight j.j mccarthy the freshman in it quarterback throws it into the backfield to his right to quorum who makes the catch around the 18. now he's hopping up the field for yardage and we pummel him at the 25 at the line of scrimmage the kobe dean was grabbing at him and then wallflower delivered the blow and it's going to be no gain on the play caught it about six yards behind the line of scrimmage and then just barely got back it's still second down and 10 from the 25. a lot of the michigan fans have headed back to the beach apparently mccarthy with coram to his left in the backfield shotgun formation snap to mccarthy pressure up the middle he'll throw caught at the 35 on the georgia sideline by johnson cornelius johnson tackled by keely ringo at the 35. that's a gain of 10. and a first down for the wolverines i think that's only the second catch for johnson tonight who came in as their leading receiver and that is correct quick throw or quick snap they'll throw it to quorum this time running on the right side with blocking but the dogs defense fights through it they tackle quorum as he crosses the 40 darian kendrick who's had a big game and the linebacker robert beal make the tackle at about the 40 and a half yard line the gain of five second down at five from the 41 is where they'll call it michigan going with tempo here well what else would they go with they're down 34-3 this pass off the hands of the intended receiver at the 48 that was eric all to tie it in lewis seen in coverage pass is incomplete and the clock stopped for the moment with 9 45 to go and michigan looking at third down and five now from their own 41. dogs have just done a great job in tackling tonight very limited yards after contact getting people to the ground very quickly good open field tackling has just been textbook michigan has two receivers to the right two to the left three to the left excuse me now mccarthy takes the snap and he gets away from walker who had him wrapped up now mccarthy off and running mccarthy in front of the georgia bench crosses midfield and out of bounds here comes the flag and another flag must be a late hit over and all that crowd couldn't see the end of the play but flags went high in the air as the michigan quarterback got away from trayvon walker who looked like he had him wrapped up for a sack and then uh mccarthy who is the dual threat guy was able to dual threat us he took off running and uh we'll check the play at the end over there i can't even see where they've marked the ball that's going to be on michigan really blindside hit on dan jackson perhaps the result of the play is a line again was made after the play was over personal foul illegal blind side block number two offense 15-yard penalty from the dead ball spot it will still be first and ten blake coram delivered the blindside block on dan jackson good eyes there z i couldn't see anything from this angle as mccarthy was able to get out of bounds practically untouched he was untouched and then coram came in with right across the front of the body now in the old days that wouldn't be a dirty hit but now it it kind of is for a safety issue well i i maybe even in the old days just because mccarthy had stepped out of bounds you can see jackson loosen up a little bit and just got blown up so michigan has the ball back on their 38 but it's still as you heard the referee say first and ten here goes mccarthy going to take off and run hole pads are clacking at the 46-yard line nolan smith and clay walker with a contact stop on the quarterback mccarthy who's up quickly and back in position ready to go dogs defense trying to get set they got seven yards on the play to the 45. mccarthy now from the hash will throw it left and short hop it well that was good if we were taking infield practice but uh anthony the receiver had no chance to catch that one his short hopped him by about three yards in front of the georgia bench and complete now georgia defensively never really got set up on that one michigan quick snapped the football we were still still had guys trying to get into proper alignment [Music] michigan now taking a little longer the incomplete pass stopped the clock with 8 49 remaining in the game 34-3 dogs here in the orange bowl out of the pistol now with edwards behind mccarthy give it to edwards and he got through the first wave but then got clobbered from the side by nolan smith who came in low and hit him around the hips and knocked him sideways near midfield they picked up the first down to the 49-yard line they got four michigan going quickly here 8 30 to go they haven't been in the end zone tonight they've thrown an interception in the end zone but haven't been in it with their guys mccarthy will pass ball is out of the hands of all the tight end defended by channing tyndall then the they had another receiver back behind him i think that was hinning who almost caught the tipped pass but it lands incomplete eric all has been a frequented target tonight in fact he's their leading receiver four catches for 63 yards yeah he's really the only wolverine that's given us any kind of problems tonight second ten balls on the uh michigan 49 for the wolverines they're all in blue tonight and they're running away from us here from our vantage point in the piedmont healthcare radio booth edwards off to the left of the quarterback mccarthy he's got time to throw gonna hang one far sideline hang it up in the air deep and overthrows everybody running for it was wilson roman wilson covered by darion kendrick he's already got two interceptions tonight but that ball that just showed off the arm of jj mccarthy right there he heaved him deep and long and it sailed over everybody yeah roman wilson had a step or two on kendrick a well thrown football there that's probably six that one out of reach for everybody missed his target by about three yards mccarthy now ready to go third and 10 from the 49 of the wolverines for michigan pointing towards his sideline and his receivers out on that side they work on the near hash from our vantage point snap back in the shotgun mccarthy moves to his right throws the ball same spot and this time flag down but pass is caught i think yeah he caught it anyway and there's a flag two flags on the play donovan edwards this time made the catch around the 10 he beat quay walker the linebacker down deep and it'll be interference on the dogs but the catch was made anyway pass interference number seven defense that penalty is declined first down well michigan liked that matchup they got with donovan edwards who has tremendous speed matched up with our linebacker who quay walker kind of held his own there but interfered on the play and now michigan with a long gain down to the 10 yard line 41 yards on the pass play and it's going to be goal to go for the wolverines from the georgia 10. now the officials are huddling up this big 12 conference group they may want to take another look to see if you can't really catch for a first down the previous play is under further review and that's exactly it as they'll take a look at the video monitor and the play is under review brought to you by pruitt health where family makes a stronger proud partner of the georgia bulldogs so that will certainly change things up if it's uh if it's determined not to be a catch it'll just be the 15 yards for the penalty timeout with 759 remaining in the game merriweather and tharp scoreboard merryweather and tharp the atlanta divorce team other bowl action from today bama advanced to the national championship they beat cincinnati 27-6 the cotton hawks beat the cavaliers in the nba 121 to 118. michigan are going to run it wide to the left and that's edwards after the handoff from mccarthy who apparently is going to finish up the game for michigan and edwards drilled by dan jackson as he tried to stretch that out wide to our left here on the georgia sideline and he was hit at the six way down on the other end of the field it looks like second down and goal now from the six the game was two it was a long run for measly two yards to get clobbered on the end dogs defense still shifting moving around mccarthy right in front of the goal post on the near hash takes the snap out of the shotgun throws a quick ball on a slant and it's incomplete near the goal line trying to go to roman wilson sneak it in there but keely ringo said no thank you and the pass is incomplete dogs man across the board there again brought to kobe dean with pressure tried to sneak walker all the way across the formation as well to get underneath that slant as he was reading the eyes of mccarthy it's one of my favorite books actually the eyes of mccarthy did you read that i did not you saw the movie right mccarthy is in a quarterback forum to his left mccarthy snapping the shotgun running for his life to the right mccoby takes a swipe at his legs and misses he throws it into the end zone and it is incomplete in the back corner roman wilson everybody was running to that far back corner and the pass play is no good for michigan that's going to bring up north defensive player the kobe dean still sitting on the turf not getting up after the play he was bearing down on mccarthy that'd be a good race to watch him run in straight line running right there after they held the coby dean he kind of got a late start on the pass rush and he took a swipe at mccarthy's legs as they were running toward the sideline unable to get to him but time has been called since nakobi was a little slow in getting up then he looked like he tried to get up and went back down not sure if it's a a cramp it's a hot humid day here in south florida and he has been running all over the field yeah i think he may be right there they've got him some liquid out there as he's being tended to 706 remaining in the ball game the champions for charity game is on every time the dogs win camp twin lakes the salvation army and children's healthcare of atlanta win because walton gas will donate 1 000 to these local charities for every regular season win and then for every bowl game the dogs win walton gas will donate five thousand dollars there's a big check coming tonight from walton gash everyone's a winner with walton gas 34-3 seven minutes and six seconds remaining here in the fourth quarter of this year's version of the orange bowl which also happens to be a college football playoff semifinal and it's been all bulldogs tonight michigan with uh another late threat here but they're looking at fourth and six fourth and goal from the georgia six dogs would like to keep them out of the end zone just to hold up their end of the bargain they've only given up a field goal tonight so nakobi off the field hopefully he's okay he's able to get off on his own and here we go fourth and goal from the six mccarthy in the shotgun man in motion to the far side they throw it to him edward's got to make an open field tackle we miss it but we clobber him at the five kendrick had dan jackson's back jackson missed the open field tackle around the 10 but darion kendrick drilled him out of bounds on the far side and it's the dog's ball going the other way third time in the ball game we stopped michigan but unbelievable job of this team coming prepared and ready to play tonight and uh it's been fun to watch the attitude's been great down here tonight thanks shock here's the handoff to kendall milton from the five way down on the far end of the field and milton will break off right of tackle and get hit as he comes through the line up to the nine yard line he got four the stop made by chris jenkins a sophomore defensive end for michigan and the dogs will begin to eyeball that clock stay in that huddle as long as they can get all those deep breaths in and try to whittle away the remaining six minutes and 25 seconds of this game and then head to the national championship game for a second appearance in school history at least in this format snap back to bennett gonna hand it off we'll run it between the tackles again and that's kendall again milton working his way for positive yards stopped by smith one of their linemen between the tackles got the ball out to the 12. good block there by warren mcclendon as well and kendall milton fighting through tackles on both of those plays running through a couple of arm tackles it'll be third down and four now for the bulldogs clock at 5 42 celebration will be ongoing new year's eve in miami and a dog's playoff victory that's hard to beat indeed it is snap to bennett and we'll toss it to kenny mcintosh on a sweep to the left he's looking for space bounces out towards the sideline and will be knocked out of bounds around where the 18 maybe the 19-yard line by hawkins the safety and oh they said that's the 13. i knew this distance was going to get me at some point and it finally did we're way down on one end of the field in the corner of the end zone and it's fourth down now for the dog so it's fourth and three on the 13 i was five yards up the field so my apologies for that and georgia will put the punt unit out there jake camarda stands on the goal line takes the snap and will boom it away and the ball will bounce on the 50 and kind of checks up after a straight-up bounce around the michigan 49-yard line or so and that's where the dogs will down it not his best work but we'll take it with that defense it's anytime you can kick it away it's pretty good work 38 yards on the punt by jake camarda with 4 40 to go and michigan will have the football at midfield on the 50. it's been all dogs tonight all night long we had a 27 to three leads only been one score in the second half and that was uh on georgia's long touchdown throw to james cook by stetson bennett to make it 34-3 michigan from the 50 they'll throw oh my goodness wow chas chambliss just blew up blake coram right in front of our bench and the pass is incomplete quorum's going to have to check out of the ball game he's trying to shake it off as he runs to the michigan sideline and wouldn't you know it that's 53 yards on the other side of the field he's got to make that jaunt before he can go down on a knee or anything but man did he get clobbered by chambliss who broke up the pass play mccarthy was looking at quorum as quorum was limping off the field tapping his chest like that's his fault i think quorum knows that was his fault throwing him into that mess uh they're gonna look at this play under review the announcement from uh referee scott campbell after the hit by chambliss so the play is under review and they're i guess are they looking for targeting is that what they're looking at we're looking at the replay too let me give you this first the play is under review brought to you by pruitt health where family makes a stronger proud partner of the georgia bulldogs that look to be a good strong hit by chambliss the linebacker he did appear to lead with his helmet did not make above the shoulders contact he hit the ball with his helmet more than anything else but hit him right in the chest he did lower his head but hit him right yeah right in the numbers so it might be about 50 50 on this one he he checks the box on some of the targeting rules and not on others scott campbell's taking the headset off i guess he's got a decision the result of the play is an incomplete pass personal foul targeting defense using the crown of the helmet 15-yard penalty previous spot automatic first down so that's our second targeting ejection and chambliss i think maybe kind of knew it as we were watching his reaction on the sidelines and christopher smith was ejected in the first half and just missed the rest of this game he'll be available for the national championship game but chambliss now as we get this right will not be available in the first half of that game but will be able to play in the second half against alabama on january 10th and it's a 15-yard penalty against the dogs that puts the ball on the georgia 35 for michigan they're still trying to get in the end zone mccarthy will throw it wide of his target at the georgia 30. aj henning was the intended receiver jamon dumas johnson was in coverage i mean he had him covered well and the pass was a little bit to the receivers left and incomplete great coverage there by dumas johnson undercut that that ball is on target that's a pick six for number 10. dogs defensive unit right now wallflower and rochester and logue up front dumas johnson smile london and mj sherman the linebackers and we've got five in the secondary we'll check those let's see speed and bullard and daniel and lasseter and briny snap to mccarthy gonna hang one up near sideline got a man wide open he beat daniel easily and that's a touchdown for andrew anthony the freshman receiver running on the georgia sideline had his man beat by about seven or eight yards it looked like and michigan finally gets in the end zone and anthony in the end zone posing like he just won the football game not sure if he realizes it's 34-9 about to be 34-10 and michigan got away with the hold right there too we brought corner fire with lasseter coming on that blitz and he got held they didn't call it david daniel was the guy left trying to cover anthony and was unable to successfully do so michigan's going to go for two here and they're going to run it into the end zone with hinning a sweep to the left and they get the two to make it 34 to 11 with 4 25 to go in the game so anthony with the score aj henning with the two-point conversion and michigan you can hear their fight song in the background first chance they've really had to play that thing tonight so they're going to jazz it up [Applause] again 4 25 remaining most of the michigan fans uh have departed so there weren't many of their fans that made the trip here uh that actually got to see them get into the end zone other than their band and uh maybe some students down there in that far end zone that's about all it is there's a sprinkling of michigan fans still in the upper deck but the lower bowl outside of the student section has pretty much emptied out so the wolverines get in against uh what was just about universally uh georgia reserves on defense i don't think we had any starters uh still in the ball game we did not other than uh i guess you could argue brini because he started all the games until we got to the sec championship game then did play against alabama and is playing here late in this ball game so michigan uh will tee it up on the 35 dogs expecting an onside kick here with 4 25 to go and the wolverines down 23 points and this will be moody as he approaches and pooches it over the front line of georgia defenders and the dogs will play it on a bounce and return it between the hash marks up to about the 35 yard line and it was kieras jackson handling the football for the dogs some sure hands back there and the dogs will have it at the 34 is where they'll spot it down with 4 20 to go good job there by quieros jackson being in the right position fielding that football on one bounce and then making his way up field and just getting on the ground and we are told the mvps of the orange bowl have already been selected stetson bennett is the offensive player darian kendrick as the defensive player so congratulations to those two guys both played very very well tonight for georgia then it under center he'll hand it off to dejean edwards big hole dejan dejean at midfield they're trying to tackle him from behind he was trying to stiff arm and edwards just went right up the gut all the way down to the michigan 35 yard line for a big scan of energy first down here late in the ball game dj turner had to drag him down a huge hole opened up there warren mcclendon a massive block and dejan edwards close to being off to the races how far was that run honda 31 yards for edwards 34-11 is our score dogs trying to seal it shut 3 46 remaining if you want to jam it in the end zone one more time on the michigan 35 break the huddle our starting offensive line is still in the ball game as is the starting quarterback and many others and hand off to edwards looking for space dejean straight ahead between the tackles once again last time he had a big hole this time not so much and michigan will make the stop at the wolverine 33-yard line and somebody called a timeout yeah michigan just called a time-out well can't use them where they're going after this one so we might as well take them i guess 326 remaining this is this is the one game that you don't mind abusing them they don't count in spring practice no they don't that's the next time michigan will uh take a snap 326 remains michigan calls a time with georgia looking at second down at eight on the wolverine 33. our fourth quarter recap presented by ag georgia southwest georgia and ag south farm credit loans for land and farms let's take a look at the completed numbers here well not quite completed but as it stands with 3 26 to go stetson bennett as we said offensive mvp of the orange bowl not bad for all the talk that swirled around prior to this game whether or not he should be playing 21 of 31 307 yards three touchdowns dogs seven yards away from going over 500 in the ball game michigan at 325 for the game second eight dogs on the michigan 33 stretch handoff to kendall milton tried to bounce out left outside they grab his leg and pull him to the turf at the 31-yard line and that was uh nikai hill green and michigan calls another timeout the georgia fans boo they're ready for the party to begin with 3 21 to go and it's third down in six at the 31 so the game was a couple for milton boyne and the dogs will get another breather as will michigan as they huddle up around their coaches on the edge of the fields you're right milton was one leg tackle away from taking that one to the house had some running room outside to his left and he was trying to get out there somebody grabbed a hold of his foot and able to bring him down george's line play tonight very very good michigan came in with two of the best sac guys in the game in ojabo and hutchinson and well they don't have any sacks tonight they only had two tackles for loss georgia has four sacks and seven tfls in the ball game [Music] did a jabbo even play tonight i don't even recall seeing him i certainly didn't call his name he would go on a reverse to lad mcconkey sweeping around to the near side hit it to 24. as he hits the ground the ball comes squirting out but he was down gray the cornerback made the stop a lot of motion in the the back the backfield there for george that served almost like a reverse as you had all the motion going to the opposite side of the field and nice diving effort by lad mcconkey to get the first down at the 24-yard line first and ten 20 to 20 it is at the 24. right now what was the game seven thank you i think i've already checked that into the party bennett turns around hands it off to kendall milton he'll try to run to the left outside at tackle kind of ran into darnell washington who was trying to block chris jenkins the defensive end for michigan will make the tackle there on the edge at the 21 or so balls on one of the corporate logos on the field and it's second down to seven the gain was three let's pause 10 seconds station identification bulldog sports network dogs break the huddle up to the line on the michigan 21 in the shotgun bennett going to take the snap toss it to edwards to his left stay in bounds dejean he goes all the way there they don't get him on the turf i thought he was going down behind the line at the 25 he keeps his feet and drives forward back to the 20 or so broke away from brad hawkins the free safety and broke a tackle from hill green as well then jenkins finally had to stop him for the michigan defense and after all of that dejan got a yard to the 19. third down at five clock less than 90 seconds now smart play there by dejan not going out of bounds at first and then just the physical nature of the way he runs breaking through tackles and fighting for every inch even at this stage in the game dogs are in the massey ferguson red zone here in the final seconds third down and five from the michigan 19 yard line there's the snap to bennett a handoff to edwards fighting for yards with the tight ends blocking on the left edge and they don't well i finally get dejan to the turf after the whistles were blowing the bodies fall down but they had him stood up around the 18-yard line or so clock continues to tick fourth down and two dogs will keep the offense on the field run one more play milton back in snap the ball take the orange bowl trophy go get ready for alabama in the national championship game balls on the uh 16-yard line fourth and two 22 seconds
