October 10, 1987 - #7 LSU @ #16 Georgia

[Music] think of georgia football and you think of a long line of excellent running backs and herschel walker who broke all the records and set the standards for those to follow lars tate may not be herschel walker but he is the nation's fourth leading rusher averaging 138 yards per contest and then there's freshman rodney hampton who started last week in rush for over 200 yards they'll both have to solve one of the nation's stingiest defenses lsu is giving up less than 11 points a game mike archer is a rookie head coach and the youngest in the game but he has already faced some of the most successful that college football has to offer and none has left the field with a win yet as lsu has gone 4-0-1 the next test is a coaching legend who has had a major impact on the game of college football in the 60s the 70s and the 80s and for vince dooley the fire still burns in his 24th year this is sanford stadium in athens georgia where more than 82 000 have come to watch the 15th ranked bulldogs take on number six lsu it's the biggest sec game of the year so far good afternoon everybody mike patrick along with lee corso and it's great to have you with us on espn george's game is running the football and the one place the lsu defense may be vulnerable is the rush defense lsu loves the ball control hard-nosed offensive type football they keep lsu's offense off the field that way but remember lsu's opponents have averaged over four yards per carry against the rushing defense as you say that could be their weakness now lsu can move the ball on the ground and in the air and georgia has had trouble stopping people throwing the football georgia's past defenses they give a lot of yardage up but very few touchdowns but watch out when lsu hits that 20 georgia comes after him but if lsu is hot they can score against anyone should be a great ball game in the biggest sec contest of the year so far number five lsu number six lsu make it against number 15 georgia and here come the bulldogs four and one on the year under vince dooley they have lost to only clemson that was by a single point on a last-second field goal cfa football is being brought to you by mykolo so exceptionally smooth the night belongs to mykolo by yashika they put a new focus on photography with a new 230 af autofocus by allstate for home auto and life insurance you're in good hands with allstate and by duro quick gel super glue works better than ordinary instant adhesives lsu won the toss and they will take the choice in the second half so lsu will kick off to start the ball game ron lewis with a very strong leg rodney hampton at number seven cassius osbourne number 24 are deep to receive the kick and we are set to go at sanford stadium in athens georgia a sellout crowd 82 122 and a perfect afternoon for college football lewis low line drive osborne trying to get to it and can't and it goes out of bounds but after it hit the end zone james jackson will lead that georgia offense competing completing nearly 50 percent of his passes the running backs behind him lars tate who was number four of the united states alfonso ellis primarily a blocker the receivers thomas and osborne they've only caught 19 passes between them troy sadowsky an outstanding tight end the offensive line here are the tackles adams and mull 260 and 281 the interior line kim stevens you'll hear a lot more about him he graduated in three years he is playing as a graduate student and lars tate with the first carry the first band to hit him was ron sancho coming from the outside linebacker spot and here is that lsu front line daryl phillips the nose man in the middle clap and james are the tackles the outside backers sancho you will see an awful lot from him and a big hitter eric hill number 54. darren marlborough and nikki hazard 48. keep an eye on hazard he appeared to be hurt in the warm-ups the corners willie bryant and kevin guidry they have one interception a piece carrier an outstanding player at safety second down georgia will go with a full back ellis and ellis will get across the 25 to about to 26 tommy clapp the first man to hit him sancho came in to help finish it off and this is georgia football put it on the ground and try to overpower people one of the good things about georgia football is they're going to play it no matter who they play vince dooley's 41-5 here why would he change that's right third down three yards to go for the bulldogs [Applause] and jackson forced out of the pocket he'll run for the first down and he's got it out to the 33-yard line gibriq covered him but he got the first down on the scramble well the reason jackson is so successful is he's got such quickness on him that time they knocked down 52 sancho and he got outside but he made that one little move that you cannot coach it's called quickness and he got by everybody it's a first down they're going to try to attack the lsu defense with him outside and kate on the inside if you saw the florida game a week ago you were able to see what an excellent running team can do to that lsu defense clapp and phillips in on the tackle as they shut that play down in a hurry and lars tate the senior out of indianapolis indiana only picked up a couple we're anxious to get a look at rodney hampton who was the sensational freshman as you'd get a look at mike archer hampton last week started for the first time gained 227 yards on the ground and they always seem to have tailbacks of georgia don't they absolutely they got him from houston texas while in high school he's ranked the 17th best prospect in texas that's hampton he'll be in soon second nate jackson to throw drops it off the tape is a good receiver little screen and broke a tackle gets out to the 44-yard line very close to a first down let's go to tim brando he has an update on ohio state in indiana tim all right mike thank you very much big doings for indiana they are leading right now 24 to 10 over the ohio state buckeyes less than six minutes remaining they have the ball and let's tell you that also it's been since 1951 that indiana beat ohio state ironically that was the first game ever coached for the buckeyes by the legendary woody hayes so lee's old club is getting it done and bill mallory what a huge win for them let's get back now to mike and lee between the hedges all right tim and of course ohio state has had trouble scoring points this year and uh former indiana coach lee corso that must get the uh the heartbeat going a little bit i think he said since 1951 they hadn't beat woody in 1976 i was ahead of him 7-6 for the first time in 25 years they were ever ahead of them boy i hope they beat them that'd be a great win for indiana another georgia first down not that you wish anything bad to ohio state of course jackson on the scramble again got away from sancho cuts back past hill he's to the 30. 25 21 yard line kevin gidley had to make the tackle and what a run by james jackson 35 yards his longest of the season well jackson's got such a good screen quickness they can't seem to catch him now you'll notice here roll out to the right number 14 jackson they get a good block on 52 sancho by going inside of him and then he breaks across the field from the left-hand side of your picture you'll see guidry 27 make a great tackle right there to keep him from going all the way again jackson on the inside tate on the ins outside ball's at the 22 this is osborne in motion tate there was a hole there for a second but hazard closed it up in a hurry darren marlborough on the bottom of the pile tate's a great football player he was a tremendous high school football player at indianapolis indiana he was a parade all-american he averaged 9.5 per carry while he was in high school every team in the nation wanted him he came here because he wanted to be another herschel walker he had a knee injury last week and did not play in the games he has played he's averaging 138 yards of carry that's number four in the united states nate lewis comes in as a wide receiver on second long that's lewis in motion they'll go with tate on the pitch ellis in front of him with a good block but lsu stacked it up george enriquez number 91 was the man who got to the point of impact archer on the sideline he was bill arn's partners defensive coordinator and then when arns parker left to become the athletic director of florida he said he thought archer should be the head coach the head of the university agreed but then it took three weeks to go through the process a lot of people didn't think mike archer would get the job i'm glad he did i think he's going to be a whale of a head coach lsu has a lot of politics in everything political and coaching state of louisiana big third down play here jackson rifles one almost intercepted chris carrier had in his hands and 90 yards of natural grass in front of him intended for thomas but under throw well you might wonder why carrier number 11 missed the ball the reason he did was the ball was deflected watch somebody gets his hands right there on the ball and that makes the ball quiver and wobble see that's right mickey hazard number 48 tipped the ball and if he hadn't tipped it his team would be leading seven nothing right now steve crumley an outstanding field goal kicker is on to try one the spot near the 25 so it would be approximately a 35 yard field goal attempt straight ahead kicker there aren't many of them left but if you kick that way you can kick it any way you want georgia jumps on top three over lsu cfa football is being brought to you by ford and your ford dealer have you driven a ford lately and by good news plus with the smooth strip for extra smoothness and comfort only from gillette 10 26 to go first quarter and it's georgia three nothing and john casey whose father is the strength coach under vince dooley and played on his first team will kick to sammy martin and eddie fuller and it's martin four yards deep in the end zone he'll down it there and lsu will start from the 20 led by the sensational sophomore tom hodson completing 62 percent of his passes so far behind him he'll have the sensational harvey williams and victor jones out of zachary louisiana the receivers are terrific wendell davis and roger mcgee along with brian kitchen the tight end cubics and pacnet are the tackles and the interior of the line is an excellent one ruffin rodrigue nacho albergamo and eric andelsek outstanding offensive line and tremendous personnel for lsu harvey williams he had a tough game a week ago and was really smothered as he got back to the line of scrimmage take a look at that georgia defensive line tyrone mcclendon and aaron chubb are the outside men bill goldberg who made that last tackle and larry brown are inside on a four-man front the linebackers guthrie 54 brantley nickname rambo in the middle he's a great one terry webster number 60 the weak side linebacker ben smith and mark vincent are the corners they're both transfers one from junior college the other from smu and there are the safeties jones and beasley a gain of about a half a yard on that next play [Applause] and hudson will keep it on the ground again to williams williams up to the 25-26 yard line but we're saying that harvey williams after last week really getting some shots and fumbling one at the goal line but harvey hasn't made as many statements this week maybe uh humility has entered his vocabulary i'll tell you what he's got tremendous athletic ability and the guy backing him up sam martin 23 is not bad he comes in the game third down and four for lsu on its opening possession [Applause] hodgson appears to be changing the play looking for davis and throws complete to davis at the 32 that'll be a first down wendell davis has in just completely rewritten the record books receiving for lsu they work together all summer and it's almost like a a brother act one guy goes back and he knows exactly where he's going to throw the ball that time they had a perfect example of what you call mismatching they had 82 davis on the strong safety number 29 will jones no way that he could cover just nice outcut first down lsu that was his 141st career catches he only needs 11 more to tie for number one in school history let me get those 11 today williams on the toss behind jones and georgia defense did well beaslow beasley came up to trip him up along with larry brown let's check in now for a scoreboard update and tim brando wayne clements of texas mike patrick getting it done trailing 13-3 to the oklahoma sooners the longhorns pulled it within seven with just seconds remaining in the first half so our score right now in that ball game 13-6 still late in the fourth indiana leading ohio state 24-10 what a huge upset that would be for bill mallory and the nfl strike negotiations ongoing as we speak the nflpa and the management council the topic of discussion today free agency more on that later let's get back to mike and lee on second and nine hodson hit harvey williams over the middle to near the 44-yard line and that's going to be a first down webster made the tackle and this is the replay harvey witness number 22 comes out like the pros do and sets down in between the zones and hudson hits with a nice completed pass right there that's the favorite play in pro football and you know most of uh archer's staff came from miami and snullenberger and they got the same kind of offensive game plan in there first and ten lsu they're down three nothing they shift back in the eye that's catching the tight end he'll split out to the right side play action by hudson wants to come near side and to davis complete at the georgia 45-yard line that'll be another first down and right now lsu's really hitting on all cylinders well i tell you what this is a perfect example of what not to do on defense 54 vince guthrie is playing safety right hand corner watch him that's a strong linebacker trying to play number 82 davis does he make him look bad but that was a terrific play on hudson's part to notice that weakness and immediately go to it hudson three out of three 27 yards so far he's had a sensational season six touchdowns only two interceptions williams and georgia obviously committed to the run that's brantley the middle linebacker who got him at the 47 48-yard line for a loss of two or three a brantley is an all-american second team player from the inside now this is a low angle shot of their favorite play to toss play williams will get it cut back but watch 42 brantley come from the inside right here and makes a good tackle on it brantley is the key in their defense because the middle linebacker is the key to most defenses tony moss number six checks in as one of the wide receivers he's flying to the top of your screen on second and 12. williams coming out of the backfield instead they throw once again to wendell davis and davis is inside the 40 they market at the 38 will jones the rover back on the coverage wendell davis has eaten up the secondary because he's going against the two weakest players in the football team on georgia defensively he's going against will jones who's a strong safety and 54 vince guthrie somehow george has got to take their defense and roll it the other way and stop davis there's no question that they got a key on georgia right now and hudson's doing a terrific job of automatic well they're doubling him with the back of the linebacker they probably need to have two backs on him he's certainly that good third and three lsu hudson to throw again that one was tipped at the line of scrimmage intended for davis 95 bill goldberg 6-3 266 gets a tip on this one watching the middle of the picture he jumps and deflects the ball right there 95 goldberg now remember the defensive line coaches always teach players if you can't get to the quarterback jump as high as you can to deflect the ball good point by goldberg that time matt defranc is on de punt they think he's just about recovered from a pulled thigh injury he suffered after a block kick mike bowen deep to receive he is the sure-handed punt catcher for georgia end over end kick bowen fakes the catch and watch the ball go into the end zone nice job by bowen and we have a timeout with 5 49 to go first quarter is georgia three at lsu nothing it's top-ranked boxing coming your way wednesday at nine o'clock right now we have lsu and georgia for you 5 49 to go first quarter from athens and georgia has the ball for its second possession they'll start from their own 20-yard line tate 32 and alfonso ellis 33 the running backs tate on the toss we've got a couple coming up greg jackson the strong safety they told tate before this season started that it was all on his shoulders they literally had no one else behind him except a crop of freshman and you know how coaches are about freshmen and tate has responded with an outstanding performance today five yards or 12 yards on five carrots jackson in trouble dumps it off and ellis couldn't hold it it's covered very well by jason delmore who was out there keep you up to date all afternoon on all the scores from around the country tulsa leading temple excuse me that's a final other scores in the east princeton with a big lead and with a big win harvard leading cornell that's fourth holy cross what a season they have had william and mary and yale and a tight one in the fourth and we'll keep you up to date on everything else as we go along it's third and seven here for georgia delay to tate and sancho got him as they got to the 25-yard line you know most stadiums that people would pull because you know they wanted to throw the football but that's georgia football see what they're going to do here is pump the football and play field position they don't do many things that people would call razzle dazzle but i tell you what they win and that's the object of the game joey hester comes on to kick hester replaces chris carpenter was the second team all-american a year ago had another year of eligibility but he was a first-round draft choice of the baseball saint louis pardons alvin lee is deep to receive this punt signals for the fair catch and makes it at the 45-yard line so lsu after a 30-yard punt will have great field position when we come back lsu with its second possession and mike archer will go with sam martin number 23 at running back in jaguar 36 the fullback and lee i know you've talked to the coaches all week you think lsu might try to trick up georgia a little bit absolutely they got 22 in the backfield when he's back there tailback watch williamson through a long touchdown pass he's got an excellent arm egg loft in motion and martin with his first carry of the day he's an exciting player went down hard as his feet went out from under him as beasley came up to make the stop martin very very quick at 79. the offensive left tackle making a good block he pulls as you'll know him and he comes down and clears the linebacker off 54 guthrie is knocked down and it's martin's going up the middle watch beasley lay them out right here and get a piece of them martin has got more quickness and he's got a tremendous body lean he's going to be fun to watch second and three after a game of seven for sam martin martin again a little counter he stopped about a yard shy of the first down there and there have already been a few scuffles after the play is over this is a very emotional game for these teams in this conference most years but especially this year you lose a game and you might be out of it you win them all you might be national champ that's right and that's what lsu has designs on third and two hudson against the four-man rush plenty of time wendell davis boy is he wide open wendell davis is one of the finest receivers in college football they don't have anybody within six yards remember the top of the show we talked about the theory they're going to give you this now they can't give it too much more they'll score six points but number 22 number 23 martin is going short and taking the linebacker and that's causing one-on-one coverage between davis 82 and vincent 15 and nobody can cover davis he's such a great runner of patterns but now remember watch it lsu will get a little bit more pressure from georgia starting pretty soon here comes the reverse moss hodgson threw a block boss to the 30 down to the 25 yard line tony moss out of bozier city louisiana what in a terrific play the quarterback hudson 13 will tip pass the ball off watch he flips it there but keep your eye on him on the right hand side of your picture you'll get a good block on number 92 right there he gets and knocks him down as he keeps right on going now that was a great play because it got georgia to go one way and come back the other 92 was the pass rushing brushing specialist this is martin straight up the middle in a big hole and martin inside the georgia 20 to 17. the block on the last play against 92 richard tardis out of bieritz france and an incredible story in his own right he has turned into a fine pass rusher when he first came over here they lined him up and practiced the first time he said he wanted to play football he just lined up and tackled the first guy he got to and that guy didn't have the ball there his card it's on the sideline it used to be tardis but after two years in athens georgians now targets hudson changing the play at the line of scrimmage first and ten martin tries to cut it outside nowhere to go cuts it back and if he had one more step he's got a big play instead vince guthrie makes the saving tackle right now another scoreboard update let's check in with tim brando all right mike thank you very much it is official not since 51 as this happened indiana wins 31-10 their only loss by the way to kentucky what does that tell you about the sec and look at this will you wait they can see the forest for the trees with their football program under bill dooley beating north carolina 22-14 let's get back to sanford stadium dancing in the streets at the university of indiana at bloomington and also winston's bensalem two major upsets martin cuts it back and stacked up that was brantley who got him at the 18-yard line the senior from wildwood florida now bradley is the leader the team leader in there he's he bench presses 510 pounds now watch him he's i sold in the middle he gets inside position in five and then he attacks the first open area and makes a good tackle now it's third down and ten watch the all-out blitz by georgia but watch a touchdown possible by lsu hodgson is so good at finding the open receiver four-man rush and all day to throw throws short davis makes the catch out of bounds at the 10. they'll be shy of the first down by about three yards and bring up a fourth down you might wonder why didn't he throw the ball to the end zone the man he tried to throw the ball into the end zone number 22 williams was covered and he went to a secondary coverage receiver number 82 davis he did not want to throw the ball to davis but that's what georgia gave him so he took it david brown dyke who is five out of eight this year will come on and try to tie it up before a 27-yard field goal attempt left-footed sideways sophomore's got it up and he has it on target 58 seconds to go first quarter we're tied at three in athens georgia [Applause] these are some of the lsu fans who made the trip from louisiana and they are out after dog gumbo but they spelled it wrong it's d-a-w-g here ron lewis to kick off in a 3-3 tie first quarter and those lsu fans the purple and gold really stands out in the sea of red black lewis nails this one and osborne will go three yards deep in the end zone and bring it out and just tripped up as he got to the 30-yard line and jimmy young the reserve cornerback made the tackle it looked like it could have been a big big return well you know most of the times you tell the guys don't run it out but this time he comes out number 24 osborne does he gets a good block here but now watch elaine open right here then he gets up the sideline and makes a good play good thing jimmy young came in from the outside to make that tackle or else it'd have been good there's a flag down on the play and the officials conferring around the 35-yard line preliminary signal was a clip on the kickoff return on the return we had a clipping then we had a dead ball foul personal foul on the kicking thing it would be first and 10 on the 30. so those penalties will cancel each other out and they'll leave the ball at the 30. and mark mike archer none too happy about the way those uh penalties worked out well what he wants to do is he wants to know if they were both even in other words if there was two 15-yard penalties and therefore it is absolutely right right here we got a cow by number three 93 collins clips number five but there was also one on the other side that you couldn't see it was a good call by the officials hiawatha berry number 43 the fullback and rodney hampton will get our first look at him the sensational freshman tailback number seven and he'll get the first carry he is faster than tate as he gets up to about the 33-yard line and this kid just highly recruited well you know they got him on the fact that he really wanted to go to a school or feature the tailback and where better hershey walker tate all these guys and they sold him on the fact that he could come here back up tape one year and in three years all-american i tell you what he might not back up tape very long not with the stats like he had last week already put him number five single game all time jackson nice playback throws short for his tight end zadowski and sadowski out to the 43-yard line brought down by the corner willie bryant sadowski a great blocker and a clutch receiver see that's what happens when you're a good running team all your passing attack but play action open up the reason that was wide open is when he faked hampton in the middle both the linebackers jumped him and left sadowsky wide open on the other side sedowski wears a string around his ankle to remind him of the promise he made to his mother to graduate and give 110 whenever he plays his mom died last year of cancer that is the end of the first quarter it's 3-3 georgia and lsu ready to start the second quarter lsu in georgia a battle of field goals in a 3-3 tie from athens the dogs with a ball at their own 43-yard line hampton is in their tail back behind jackson that's sadowski the tight end moving to the far side they'll run to the short side with hampton oh he's quick hampton up to about the 49-yard line chris carrier of the week's safety and carl dunbar who's in it right in make the tackle all right 68 stevens is the number one offensive lineman for vince dooley as he pulls number 68 you'll see him come around he gets a pretty good block on the linebacker but the thing that makes this play is right there see that that guy looked like he was number seven hampton looked like he was going full speed the other guys were going half speed what acceleration second and three from near midfield jackson and he goes high intended for john thomas to split in jackson knows he's talking about vince dooley right there vince is probably very very happy if he knew about it that bill dooley his brother just had that big big win over north carolina look at that statistic one other statistic he's the past president of the american football coaches association and a long time chairman of the ethics committee of the american football coaches association i served on that committee with him he's most highly respected coach in america right now yes he is third and three from georgia [Applause] and i'll tell you what this is going to be exciting it's going to be fourth down and about maybe a yard is he going to punt it georgia's style he's going to punt it now florida state would go forward miami would go for it vince dooley punts it because he wants to get the ball down there and play good defense he didn't even hesitate to count i mean there was no decision to be made well he's not happy with jackson because the number one thing jackson had to contain broke the other time and could have run for a first down but threw it david dukes is on the punt standing at the 10-yard line is jimmy young high short kick and young can't get to it it takes a georgia bounce look out for this [Applause] time out 13 28 to go first half we're still tied at three ffa football is brought to you by jeep there's a feeling you can get only in a jeep and by mastercard every time you choose mastercard to make a purchase we'll make a contribution to one of six worthy causes [Applause] lsu football at its own six yard line hodson big day so far six out of seven 57 yards wendell davis five catches for 46. but lsu in a hole right now and williams is back in the tailback and williams will get the carrot looked like he almost lost control of that handoff got it a little high on his chest and bill goldberg makes the tackle espn cfa coverage continues later today when pittsburgh hosts notre dame that's next and then we'll switch coasts for a pcaa matchup between long beach state and pacific that one will start at 10 30 p.m eastern time tonight second and seventh for lsu williams again excuse me martin is checked into the ball game and martin will pick up maybe one to the nine yard line [Applause] paul giles number 97 made the tackle you notice that that time giles came in there and made a little penetration george is doing a good thing they're they're alternating their off defensive lineman and keeping them fresh in there against lsu he made a nice move because he started one direction and did a little stunt archer is confused because right now georgia is using exactly what they want to do they're keeping them inside and in front of them third and seven hodson to throw pressure from behind got it away and overthrew wendell davis who was double-teamed that time by two defensive backs instead of a linebacker and a defensive back and the frenchman got into that time yeah dardis got in number 92 for a little pressure from the left-hand part of your picture number 92 will beat hubix and gets the pressure on and forces hudson to throw it just a split second quicker than he wanted to matt defrank comes on to punt and deep to receive is nate lewis who is standing at midfield and defrank sails one out of there drives lewis back to his own 44. and very good contained by lsu he gets across to 50. a flag goes down after a 48-yard punt and an eight-yard return we will check out the penalty for you thrown late on the play and they're talking to lsu [Applause] here's the call [Music] two mistakes on kicking play one didn't cost him because it was an offsetting penalty but this one will cost him 15 yards back to their own 41-yard line we've got a time-out in the 3-3 tie these are general admission seats at sanford stadium in athens that's about as general as you can get pick your own clump of dirt until you left you picked you see that white fence they used to sit up on top of that bridge free they don't let them do that anymore well the stadium seats 82 000 they have done a study to enclose this end of the bowl and it would take it up to about 104 thousand jackson couldn't find his first receiver and then doesn't have a chance as the nose guard daryl phillips came through to pluck him down he called it automatic that time he wanted to throw a quick pass out there they're talking about the defense right there the georgia defense is talking about the offense now watch the automatic he's calling out i want to throw a quick pass out to my right but bryant number 29 must have hurt him because he comes up watch your turn he wants to throw the ball that's right but the man has got him covered bryant does when he does a smart thing and just runs it straight ahead second and eleven here's the delay to hampton and hampton gets back to the 40-yard line before eric hill number 54 climbed on his back sancho is such a tough football player anytime he's playing on air which means he's not playing on anybody he comes down at a tight angle and almost makes the play 52 what he did there is made hampton hesitate so 62 phillips and the rest of his men could make the tackle third down 11 georgia from its own 41-yard line jackson to throw here comes hill on the blitz can't get there and now does hill got the sack on second effort as he got him at the 37 and daryl phillips is in there with him [Applause] that's the third sack of the season for eric hill from galveston texas bring up fourth down they'll have to punt the ball away and hester who was the long putter comes back into the ball again the first one was only 30 yards and jimmy young transferred from smu pretty kick by hester this time floats it up and young from the 25 as barry never had a chance didn't even get one step number 93 brent collins was down there to make the tackle for georgia on special teams another time out 10 09 to go in the half lsu quarterback tom hodgson on the sideline talking with the coaching staff and he's on the sideline because senior mickey guidry out of gretna louisiana is in the ball game now what they used to do at lsu under bill arnsberger is guidry would get a series second quarter fourth quarter is usually the way it worked out and mike archer in this game is going to continue with that and guidry has come through with some outstanding performances when he's been in their attention williams on the toss a more than one tackle got it up to about 27. guidry has not had much success this year only 28.6 of his pass is completed so one touchdown and one interception keep you up to date on some of the scores we've already had two major upsets wade forest over north carolina and indiana knocking off ohio state iowa rolled big over wisconsin second and seven here flanker screen the moss avoided one tack over the 35-36-yard line nice play by tony moss the sophomore from bossier city davis makes a nice block you want to watch a good block watch 82 davis who's an all-american receiver but goes down and gets a really good block on the inside man who's 42 brantley now 26 smith this is the tackle on six moss but i'll tell you what they showed me right there what a great all-around player that wendell davis is number 82. [Applause] first and 10 lsu with its own 36. snap was fumbled and recovered by guidry at the sometimes that's the problem when you change quarterback yeah because the quarterback number two never works with the number one center but this case they do it a lot let me tell you this strategy is not bad i used to like to do it myself because i got the quarterback on the sideline i got a chance to see here how they're playing you see what they look like then when you go back in there mike garcia is smart in doing this he'll do he'll do a better job the next time in there hudson will second and eleven good replay action here comes the blitz he gets rid of it got it at the kitchen and kitchen trying to get the first down and they'll mark it right at the sticks at the 47-yard line kitchen taken out of bounds by beasley but that was a tough effort now look at the strategy on georgia as soon as the second team quarterback comes in they blitz but they do such a good job of training their quarterbacks and geddry just hit it perfect the reason why they went after guitry and not hudson is he doesn't have as quick a delivery but he sure showed he could do it then big play for lsu they have the ball at their own 46 first and ten one other thing about vince dooley when all the things were going on with jan kemp and there were certainly abuses that needed to be corrected the one man she never criticized was vince dooley she said he tried to do everything he could to clean things up and he deserves a lot of credit for that get replay action throws to davis [Applause] guidry is a fine quarterback you do not lose much when you go to get re in place of hodgson i'm telling you eight eight and nine teams in the country would love to have him watch davis come down now the play has made successful because they sent a man out and get brown number 49 to go to his left and davis snuck in behind him that's what they call a curl route you take one guy out flat and a curler guy behind the quarterback watches number 49 and throws it to number 82 davis first down tell you what you could run all day and not get behind george's secondary [Applause] goodry on the option [Applause] at the line of williams mike guthrie made the stop [Applause] first time we've seen the option let's go back to our college football studios in a scoreboard update with tim brando all right mike thank you very much 44 yards jamel holloway will go to work after an interception inside the oklahoma 10 by ricky dixon they convert with the touchdown aerial to carl caverness that makes it oklahoma 20 texas six midway in the third let's get back between the hedges really closer than most people would have expected but emotion is one of the great parts of college football second and eight here comes the blitz hitler gets rid of it and kitchen just couldn't handle it coming up on the coverage mark vincent the transfer from smu mckendree that time saw the blitz now watch he sees everybody coming up 93 puts the pressure on him collins in the middle but almost picked off right here by 15 the transfer from smu vincent now what happened that time is that the lsu team has been well drilled remember 35 yard line here comes georgia they knew that before they even connected the brits and third and long is certainly a passing down for lsu nice block on that last play by victor jones number 34 the fullback who picked up the blitz moss trying to get to the first down sticks and does and he has more stays in bounds moss at the five touchdown lsu wendell davis is an all-american wide receiver tony moss is next in line and git rate came off the bench to lead him to a touchdown last year he did it all the time every time kendrick came in the game lsu scored brown dyke for the point after it's good [Applause] how many times i've told you you can't coach speed watch number six moss will come in around a little delay pattern after he catches it he runs away from vincent like vincent is standing he can't catch him now watch he makes a break right here beasley number 20 miss him he almost goes out of bound but a great piece of running after we catch the football by the 5 7 172 pound southport and guidry gets his second touchdown pass of the season and it's lsu by seven that's our story from athens georgia lsu scoring its first touchdown of the game and taking a seven point lead on vince dooley and the dogs and lsu will kick off with senior ron lewis deep to receive rodney hampton number seven and cashes osborne [Applause] 24. [Applause] and no big return this time as he stopped at his own 23-yard line scoring drive was very impressive under mickey guidry who finished it off with a 36-yard scoring pass to moss 71 yards in eight plays and these guys have just so many offensive weapons that's a 36-yard pass but it was actually an eight-yard pass and he ran all the way remember the georgia theory was to let him catch that and then tackle him but what they forgot to do is tackle him interesting thing is guidry after the great performance will not come back in the ball game until sometime in the fourth quarter unless he transfers that's right tate is back in is the tailback and jackson goes with a play action now he has to run and from behind sancho ron sancho who is everywhere out of avondale louisiana speed on defense doesn't hurt either absolutely now what what slows him up here the reason he catches him this time is because jackson wanted to throw it but then couldn't find anybody and sancho just kept right on coming and caught him i think they'd have a better success if they just ran out of there and could fake him sancho the number one tackler in the number one big play man on this lsu defense big hit that time by eric hill 54 and hazard 48. hazard really got a shoulder in there and then hill who was a 245 pound linebacker finished it off he'll stick oh i like his looks because i tell you what he just stuck that number 87 sadowski and knocked him flat on his butt and got up and made the tackle i tell you what you take those two outside linebackers 54 hill and 52 sancho they're the key to their defense there's no question in my mind flag on the fly illegal substitution on the defense is five yards plucking down illegal substitution is the call that must mean that they had 12 men on the field or 13 or maybe even 14 the way they played that defense because you can't have an illegal substitution on defense unless you have more guys than you can have at one time which is 11. so the penalty will make it second and two georgia with the ball on its own 31 down 10-3. and they'll give it to the fullback ellison he dives forward at the 34-yard line that should be very close to the first down lsu wanted a fumble and one official said no sancho comes out with a football and another official apparently said yes let's check it [Applause] one official definitely marked the ball down but it's lsu's football the referee is the man to call this from behind and we'll get a good we'll get a good look at what he saw 33 ellis has got the football now let's see the ball is coming out right there it's a lousy call not a bad call a lousy call he was already on his back when the ball came out remember the ball has to be fumbled before he hits the ground look at the georgia sideline the first official who was there during the live action pointed to the ground as if the ball was down and then someone else came in and said no it's a fumble no i think you should oh man they should change it watch the guy is already down right there you see his back see his back and then the ball flies back now the official that call that was the referee and he he's got the white head out there he should put a black hat on because he's a bad guy now but he couldn't see it he shouldn't we used to have a rule don't call him unless you see him big break for lsu kitchen will split out to the left he's the tight end fuller is in there at the tailback and watching play fake and throws down field complete at the 10. and that's wendell davis davis just terrorizing the georgia secondary this afternoon that's his sixth reception in the first half you won't believe this he threw the ball there was at least three red shirts there he threw the ball right back in the middle and number 82 davis just goes up there and takes it away from smith you talk about confidence they throw it to that guy wherever he is even if george has got him covered make it seven catches for wendell davis and it's first in 10 lsu fuller broke a tackle got to the seven yard line demetrius douglas number 53 the sophomore made the tackle purdue trying to win one for fred acres in the fourth quarter minnesota a 12 point winner somebody's got to win this one missouri over kansas state northern iowa leading in the fourth quarter tcu a winner texas a m struggling against houston that's at halftime and we'll keep you up to date on all the other scores as we go along not only here but with tim brando in the college football studio on the scoreboard second and seven nice fake by hodgson he got to the one and oh did they stand him up hodson's knees hit the ground and he got crunched i got a suggestion for hodson number 13. when you run that boot like that and you're going for the touchdown don't go with your head up go like a mole right underneath the ground now watch this he's coming right here now get down get down quickly before they get you he didn't get out fast enough he will next time third and a yard yes mike archer would just love to see his team go up by two touchdowns harvey williams is back in the ball game remember he fumbled a week ago at the goal line against florida they'd like to get him some practice instead they'll get him a two-yard loss as georgia swore on harvey williams number 15 mark vinson from fort worth texas will come out of the right hand bottom of your picture watching he's the right corner he and he just strips everything right here see he forces him to the inside so that number 60 webster and the rest of his buddies can get to him that play was made because of penetration by number 15 mark vincent fourth and three they'll send in brown dyke to go for a 20-yard field goal he has already picked one big stand by the georgia defense stop the touchdown lsu comes out with three points but that is a break for georgia to keep them out of the end zone especially after a lousy call that really hurt them back there exactly this half has gone very very fast as you see only 3 16 to go in the first half one because georgia runs the football that keeps the clock going and because lsu has completed nearly everything it's thrown and that keeps the clock going our triple header next saturday we're still not sure what that four o'clock game will be but it will be on at four o'clock eastern followed by another big sec game tennessee and alabama remember if you lose one in this league it's so long that's a seven o'clock start then san jose state and fresno state coming up at 10 30 eastern live that is next saturday big triple header it's so far been worth making the trip they've been playing well but now what pence dooley's thinking about there the last three times they've had the ball they've established nothing remember the beginning of the game they established jackson to the outside and tate to the inside then all of a sudden they start getting away from that he's going to remind the offensive staff to go back to what we do the best don't worry about lsu and we'll catch these guys 13-3 is not a big deficit although georgia does not exactly have a catch-up offense hampton from the six this guy can fly stopped shy of the 30-yard line by the kicker ron lewis georgia will start from its own 28. we'll see if hampton stays in there now he's trotting off the field and that means tate will be in at the tailback spot between them they're averaging over 200 yards a game rushing michigan state leading michigan how about this second quarter memphis state knocks off alabama 13-10 and the mighty are falling like raindrops this afternoon ohio state went down jackson on the absolute keep it across the 35 36-yard line carrier makes the tackle along with kevin gibri the right cornerback all right a little bit better jackson to the outside that time on an option number 69 burrows pulled and made a good block on the outside but again if they can get jackson to stretch the defense then they can hit him up in the middle quickly with tate but jackson's got a threat in the corners or their offense will not move anywhere keep you up to date on all those upsets tim brando at halftime will have all the scores all the highlights and there have been some beauties today tate hesitated a little bit as he went toward the line there wasn't a lot of room in there and eric hill is in on the stop for lsu past few years they've had some great linebackers at lsu there is a flag down and the lsu players are indicating that it's against georgia by the second half this entire field will be in shadow holding on the offense 10 yards second down there's nothing more frustrating than a coach to have second down and one and have a lineman hold we used to say if you got a hole just fall down get out of the way just don't cause a penalty now vince dooley has got to go against his basic strategy there's 225 does he go wide open or does he get in 13-3 it's going to be interesting so it's second down on 11. backup fullback hiawatha berry is on the sideline he has a big ice pack around his left ankle we do not expect him to come back into the ball game today and they like to use him on short yardage situation a lot of time now he's got a sprint out of the pocket and he only gets to the 32-yard line he's covered out there by lawrence and clap jackson had plenty of time and couldn't find anyone he was trying to find 32 tate who was going up on the left-hand side trying to get sneak up there for a touchdown but 27 guidry from st charles louisiana did a nice job of staying in his own area you can go a long time in the georgia game without seeing the wide receivers osborne 24 and thomas number nine only caught 19 passes between them this is the sixth game of the season third and eleven jackson rifles this one was it caught no it's incomplete thomas the ball a little bit behind him came up with it and the official had a great angle at that one it's a tough throw as a right-handed quarterback to throw back to your left he doesn't get his shoulders wide open and that's why he throws the ball behind them you teach a quarterback when a man is going across you always aim three feet in front of him never adding because his momentum will carry him to the ball not away from the ball hester comes in to punt jimmy young is deep standing in his own 25. we have one minute and 19 seconds to go in the first half lsu will have time for another shot at getting on the scoreboard hester floats this one out of there fair catch signaled made at the 31-yard line so with a minute and 12 to go in the first half after a 39-yard punt lsu will have a chance to get the offense working again there he is squab jones he's been around the university of georgia athletics for 76 years he's 85 years old i talked to him yesterday he's got some of the great stories i tell you what he's got more rings on his finger than al davis does now watch you see he's got look at all those championship rigs and he's got another one on his other finger for an all-time record he's hanging around till he gets both hands filled with championship races 85 years old absolutely hodson dumps it off to martin he's very dangerous in the open field martin up to the 42-yard line counting down to a minute both teams have all three timeouts left and now the officials will stop the clock first down does stop the clock momentarily hudson throwing under as he has all day wendell davis could not handle this one and mike brown was right with him that time they had good coverage on davis because they double-teamed them from the outside on the inside now watch number 49 brown will chug him and stay with davis davis tries to get open it dropped one finally well he's human at least they had a penalty on there on the defense it's five yards first down [Music] it's a five-yard penalty against georgia which will move the ball up to the 46 with 51 seconds hodson so far 8 out of 10 90 yards that one was dropped absolutely that was right through his hands guidry is four out of five for 71. so they're just shredding the georgia passage that's if that's five yards it should be an automatic first down because it must have been defensive holding it is they have moved the sticks and i never saw or heard the official say what the penalty was for but that's a good call lee because it is an automatic first down as they move four-man rush they haven't threatened hodson all day and he throws underneath again davis dropped it again and go a long way we're not seeing wendell davis drop two in a row george has changed his strategy they now got number 49 a defensive back on davis therefore he can cover him a little bit better now watch 49 is always around davis with 42 brantley he strips the ball loose he did not have control of the ball that's why it wasn't a fumble now all the georgia fans were wishing yeah you know but it really was a good call by the officials leads them out rajiv mcgee is in at a wide receiver talk about a guy who does not get a lot of publicity and is a tremendous receiver they throw from martin out of the backfield to the jordan 25 knocked down by beasley but mark made the catch and he looks like he may have been shaken up on the play after a 29-yard gain he took a shot it's going to be a first down lsu and lsu will use a timeout to stop the clock boy hodgson steps forward don't you like the way he threw that ball right off his front foot what they did is they put four guys deep on three and they hit a little seam in there to martin number 23. beasley hit him but it's still first down lsu 38 seconds to go in the first half lsu threatening again already leading 13-3 mike we haven't called 80 mcgee's name yet watch him he's flanked to the same side with wendell davis and now they got williams out on the wing on the far side george is showing blitz and they drop out of hodson for the first time pressured out of the pocket runs out of bounds gets down to the 23 stops the clock with 32 seconds left boy that was a neat pass pattern they sent number 82 davis right to the corner and brat number 80 underneath mcgee boy that was a perfect pattern but except georgia put a little bit too much pressure and didn't have time i had a feeling that you keep going you keep going to davis you keep going to davis and all of a sudden you go to somebody else while the other team jumps them and double covers them well the touchdown pass went to tony moss who was in there right now flying to the far side hudson dumps it off to martin martin tried to reverse direction got down to the 17-yard line and no more with 23 seconds left and lsu will use it second time out of the half to stop the clock terry webster the linebacker on the tackle you've often heard the phrase as you look at mike archer between the hedges and there's a reason for it there are hedges here originally in 1929 served as a natural barrier around the field there is a fence in the middle of those so people can't get through them even if they wanted to try and they say that grantland rice the legendary sports writer was the man who first coined the phrase between the hedges did you i heard about rumor that you actually jumped the hedge is that right no let me tell you about that hedge in 1956 a quarterback from florida state by the name of lee corso played in this stadium we got beat three nothing and the head was only about maybe half that big but the hedge has always been here and it's always been a tremendous place to come and play football because boy i tell you what this is a magnificent arena beautiful place and the fans love and know football here when you were at florida state uh you played a great schedule absolutely i was famous with coral state for one thing my roommate was burt reynolds he was so good looking i used to send him out for bait he'd bring one back that was ugly and i got her but she was better than anything i could get that's a true story third down three yards to go for lsu four-man rush pardot puts the pressure on and he forced watson to overthrow richard tarnitz the designated pass rusher came through and did his job curtis is an interesting story from france as you said you know he couldn't understand why after the game watch him in a bottom left-hand picture he does like a nice swim room which he gets nice and low and he comes and gets him almost from the blind side for a fumble tardis number 92 couldn't understand like in france after the game they go out and have a party between the two teams and drink and sing brown dyke is on to try a 35-yard field goal attempt he has already kicked two make it three david brown dyke perfect on the afternoon and virtually perfect is lsu as they have built a 16-3 lead over georgia with 12 seconds to go in the half okay from georgia's standpoint not bad 16-3 against a good football team they can still come back and win it in the fourth quarter like we saw nebraska do at home the problem they have is they have gone away from their game plan vince dooley is concerned because they don't they're trying to put here there they got to get back to the solid thing of jackson to the outside tate and hampton i think they got to put hampton in the game because he's the only guy i've seen that could break a long touchdown run against lsu with 12 seconds left i would be shocked if it's anything but a squib kick you don't want to kick the ball down to hampton to the goal line and let them go 100 yards on you dude no you don't vince dooley he has has been at a major college football coach at one school longer than anyone else this is his 24th season he's also the athletic director and they just dedicated a new athletic complex that is really a sight to see for anybody who loves college football it's called a mutts butts mere heritage hall it's named after wally butts and henry muir it's the most impressive facility i've seen on college campuses it costs 11.5 million dollars and over 50 percent of that was raised by former athletes at georgia that's the love of the school yeah that's right line drive kick goes out of bounds and that'll cost them five yards they'll have to kick it over again and matt defrank the punter is doing the kicking and can't be very happy with that uh effort sometimes when they they do this they have a guy to kick off that's a specialist they don't want their kickoff man to do it because they're getting bad habits you know in other words if you try try a flu kick the next time he tries a good one he can't get a good one so you can anybody can kick off they'll have to kick off this time from the 30. and defrank will go back and huddle up with his kick coverage team to see what they want to do that one was a low line drive if it stayed in bounds hampton would have had a real shot at returning [Music] we have 12 seconds to go first half it's been virtually all lsu after georgia took a three-nothing lead 16-3 defranc low line drive and osborne short hops it paula ozzy smith with the ten and he'll get back just across the 20-yard line and down with four seconds to go in the first half and you just have the feeling that georgia is not about to try to throw the bomb it'll be a toss to the tailbone now i would throw a bomb you've got nothing to lose in other words you try a long pass maybe you gotta catch it but don't throw a short pass in the flat where the guy can kick it off and go all the way let's line up three guys on there throw it boom all of a sudden they make a touchdown and they say what a coach they'll go with three wide receivers on this play the last play of the first half and it's a toss to the tailback and tape getting some good yardage out of it that's his longest run of the ball game forced out about shy of the 40 by chris carrier but the conservative play will end the first half with lsu on top of georgia 16-3 in a game rated as a toss-up by the expert we're in athens georgia with a fine and a very important sec game right now let's go back to our college football studio and an update on all the scores with tim brando if you're a georgia fan it's just been a dog of a day so far 16-3 lsu that is ugga 4 the bulldog mascot and this is john casey the freshman from athens kicking off to lsu to start the second half martin four yards deep hill down again lsu will start from its own 20. take a look at the statistics from the first half and it was just dominated by lsu 195 yards passing they just churned up that georgia defensive secondary and georgia was unable to do anything except what they do best that's rushed the ball but they only got 100 yards but also that one turnover down there cost him three points yes it did now and that was a bad call by the official but right now george has got to get back to play in their style and win it on defense they cannot win this game unless they can stop lsu harvey williams will start the second half at tail back and he'll get four beasley came up from the secondary to make the hit on him here's what lsu did in the first half each time they got the football they had to give it up on a punt after a pretty decent drive the first time then they got a field goal that tied the score at 3-3 and this was really the only poor offensive series they had then they drove eight plays for a touchdown and five plays for a field goal and then eight plays for a field goal to take that 16-3 lead they'll split the backs this time and give it to williams trying to get outside cut it back and dives forward to the 29-yard line where beasley covers him again and beasley the junior and that's not a good sign when your safety number 20 is coming up making a lot of tackles the linebacker should be in the same position than he is so it's not a good sign that beasley number 20 is making all those tackles not if you're a georgia fan it isn't the field about three quarters in shadows there's a look at beasley the safety third and short williams dives for the 30. it's all going to depend on the officials mark and they will place it down across the 30 for an lsu first down yeah for lsu tough day so far for the junkyard dog defense brantley whose nickname is rambo was the only member of that defense now the coaches have seven players in it [Music] but the pass defense especially has been torn up by hudson and guidry in the entire lsu passing attack williams big hole in the middle lost the ball georgia has it at the 33. bill goldberg number 95 the sophomore from tulsa oklahoma makes the recovery at number 26 ben smith from albany georgia made the tackle now watch number 26 come to the left ear picture he gets in good perf perfect position to hit him now he hits winning right where the ball is right boom right there number 22 26 knocked the ball loose and george has got it remember they've got to win this game on defense because their offense is sputtering that's what georgia has had to have the big break lars take the fullback now second in rushing ever to only herschel walker jackson dragged down by sancho who came in from the outside linebackers and the crowd cheering a moment ago now starts to boo the georgia offense tate who gained 16 yards on the last play of the first half has 258 career rushing yards he's only 2 700 yards behind herschel walker tells you something about hershey second and 10 georgia osbourne in motion jackson to throw sancho coming after can't get there but hill makes the tackle and the outside linebackers are making life miserable for the georgia offense and there is harvey williams who had the big fumble a week ago has the fumble this time and the fumble he had just a second ago was caused by a great play on the defense number 26 smith who put his helmet right on the ball there's almost no way possible you can protect the football when a helmet is placed on it so that's not really williams's fault it's a great play by smith big play here third and eight five-man rush going for thomas in the end zone touchdown georgia and 82 000 georgia fans explode here at sanford stadium as the dogs are back in it 31-yard touchdown pass from jackson to john thomas his first touchdown of the season crumbling after and he missed it he missed it wide left and that could turn out to be a big big point because the margin is at seven instead of six number nine john thomas is going up the left-hand side of the picture his one-on-one coverage with guidry watch the ball is thrown to his outside good concentration of over the head catch oh jackson has great reaction he's back in there he's the same guy they were booing about 15 seconds ago now he's a hero time out with 11 59 to go third quarter it's lsu 16 georgia 9. they're born to run and by cassio maker of the shock resistant water resistant g-shock it's one tough watch to beat big point after and crumley was wide left with it and there's the young man on the sideline and he hopes it doesn't come back to haunt him the first extra point miss of the season he has been 15 out of 15. booming kickoff will go in and out of the end zone and lsu will have to go back to work on offense from its own 20. most games are one in the second half in the first two possessions because whichever team establishes authority usually carries it on and this is very very important that george is back into the ball game now with a motion he just misses this one to the left looked like a good snap and a good hold he simply missed it martin is in a tailback after the williams fumble and sammy martin will get a yard and no more brantley was there to make the tackle along with jim hickey number 90. and there's nothing that fires up a defense like causing a fumble and watching the offense turn it into a touchdown now brantley and the rest of his players are thinking one thing keep these guys controlled remember make them drive the football because the fans are backing it lsu has been playing almost perfect they're bound to make a mistake is exactly what georgia's thinking right now hodson hasn't made one yet he's 10 out of 14 123 yards wendell davis has got seven for 84. making eight catches for wendell davis as he crosses up to the 33-yard line another first down lsu davis is sneaky he looks like he's popping out of the ground he gets so wide open but he's driving 42 brantley absolutely crazy watch brownie doesn't have any idea what to do and davis catches the football the reason why brantley didn't go over and cover davis is because number six had him occupied nice offensive pass through it they really flooded that side they had four receivers to the near side of the field martin got to the line of scrimmage but no more was morris lewis the freshman linebacker number 57. [Applause] vince dooley has gotten it done here at georgia with his own philosophy his own style but he's done it very ethically for a long long time and right now one of the biggest games of the season he's trying to get his club back in martin on a little misdirection play gets up to the 38-yard line and the georgia crowd is really in it now [Music] grantly in the middle is the key because he's the leader wildwood florida watch him step up to the middle number 76 and delsic moves and tries to trap him but what's happening right now what's happening now georgia is playing with more emotion i've ever seen there's a junkyard goal seven guys in that club on defense for outstanding performances trying to bring some of the pride back third and five here comes the blitz they dump it off to martin and beasley got it [Applause] that was against the computer scout they actually blitzed against lsu on the lsu 40 which they never do he threw the ball quickly and he's saying that guy wasn't supposed to be there beasley came up made a nice play matt defrank to punt nate lewis waits at his own 20. low kick and one of the up men will go back and signal for the fair catch that's mike bowen the sure-handed punt returner a 37-yard kick and we have a one touchdown game the pros are playing somewhere that's canadian football league and of course we got a great one here number five number six excuse me lsu leading number 15 georgia by seven that's richard tardis the defensive end pass rushing specialist from barrett's friends first and 10 georgia they have it at their own 23 they split the backs give it to tate and the lsu defense closed in a hurry right corner kevin guidry came up and made the tackle with hill tate eight carries only has 33 yards on the afternoon as they have done a good job of shutting him down and we haven't seen much of hampton coach dooley must be worried about putting hampton in such a big game that he might follow anything but i'll tell you what he'd be worth putting in because i think he's got a little bit more quickness to tate and he could make some long runs for him second and six tate on student body right and what a great tackle out there by sancho that stops him from picking up another five maybe more than that sancho the leading tackler on the club has been everywhere today this time they try to isolate on and drive 87 zadowski on 52 sancho and it was holding back there they're trying to do anything they can to sancho hold him kick him double-team him but he's a fine football player he's a first team online ten yards second down big penalty against the bulldogs remember throwing the ball is not their strength so if you put them in second and third and long you really have them in a hole keep you updated on all the scores of course and there was the big upset of the day indiana knocking off ohio state michigan state trying to stop michigan second one they go with the delay to laura's tate tate breaks a tackle gets up to the 28-yard line that was chris carrier who tripped him up that's her favorite favorite play about this is they like to run this play off tackle now number 68 stevens will pull and lead up to the hole he blocks down and knocks the linebacker number 90 marlboro down there but the reason that play works so good is they got a terrific block on number 54 eric hill and got him into the secondary and stevens made the next block third and six stevens was the first true freshman to start on the georgia offensive lines and vince cooley has been here jackson on the roll throws complete had the first down and then lost it diving forward as john thomas he had the first down but his momentum carried him back past the stick perfect call perfect call mike because what happened is when that's the way you teach that route you teach to go deep and then come back and catch the football but his momentum was driving him so far back he couldn't turn around fast enough now comes interesting what does vince do fourth and six inches oh you know what he'll do he'll punk the ball go for it vince the kicking team is already on its way out there they all say go for it if he doesn't make it they'll say i told you should have punted that's right fourth in inches georgia will punt it away with 7 23 to go third quarter hester is in jimmy young is back there with company mark jackson starting safety and jackson signals fair catch makes it at the 32 35 yard kick no return 7 16 to go third quarter and still lsu by seven [Applause] 7 16 to go in the third quarter for rapidly moving ball game along with lee corso this is mike patrick glad you could join us on a saturday afternoon from athens georgia first and 10 lsu from its own 32 harvey williams back at tailback hodson to throw and throws incomplete trying for davis excellent coverage that time by mike brown since mike brown has been in there george's pass defense has been a lot better what they've done that time they brought mike brown up like he was going to blitz hodson called an automatic to throw the ball to davis and brown just walked out and double covered it no he doesn't look to him too much you might think he does but remember when he got a great player like that he gets open remember the one about 10 minutes ago he hit him with three guys around he keeps trying to do that hodson 12 out of 17 eight of those catches by wendell davis four-man rush no pressure dumps it off to the tight end kitchen kitchen driving for the first down and he's very close looks like about a half yard shy at his own 42-yard line terry webster dragged him down in front of that yard mark i wonder why he's so wide open all of a sudden the linebackers are splitting out to cover the wide outs number 82 davis that time and leaving a little hole underneath that's why the guys wide open now they can't do no they can't go watch davis they can't play 49 it's been a great performance by the lsu offensive line they have really protected hodgson and guidry williams and he's got the first down out near the 44 yard line and along that offensive line you've got guys like nacho albergamo 56 who was the center all sec was the number one center in the usa today full he has a research paper that's being published next week the young man is absolutely one of the most intelligent college football players around he wants a career in sports medicine as an orthopedist they feel he is a an outland trophy candidate along with right guard eric andelsek number 76 and that puts a great anchor in the middle of your offensive line hodson plenty of time throws near side complete to moss and moss with another one of those quick moves down to the georgia 45 that will be another lsu first down and doesn't loss look good what they found in moss is the secondary receiver that time they try to go to long to davis but moss was in there kind of hanging around and threw it to him and after we caught it he made eight more yards bradley number 42 is coming into the picture and 34 victor jones gets a piece of them from behind the officials didn't see it first down lsu and they're driving leading 16-9 williams trying to get outside waited for andalsek who buried somebody and williams got down to the 39 that is a fine piece of running by harvey williams i tell you what handle set came over there he's 6-2-2-75 he started every game for him in the last two years great prospect michigan state leads only by three washington i think that's a game bino cook predicted knocking off arizona state at home alabama beaten at least alabama fans can say it's not a conference score and ucla having it handed to them by the ducks big year for ducks huh second and four lsu from the 39 hots and play just very calm and throws for davis out of bounds yes he was and mike brown was over there to help the official hodgson just doesn't look like he could shake him a good throw remember he's got to have one foot in but he's also got to control the football he's got this foot in but he doesn't control the football good call by the official to me it's interesting they've got they've got uh guidry on the sideline number 56 abergambo does a good job in the middle against number 72 larry brown but they haven't brought that gadrian and all he did was take him down for a touchdown he'd be in the fourth quarter it'll be his turn third and four the georgia fans absorbing the defense the junkyard dogs to hold blitz hudson unloads him complete and that was broken up by terry webster number 60 and they finally put some pressure on hanson [Applause] beasley was also there on the coverage number 60 is going to cover this with boy the pressure number 54. guthrie's coming number 99 is coming into the inside and there's a lot of pressure when he finally gets and knocks him down i would not be surprised to see guthrie come in in another series or two because i tell you he looked real good when he was in there ron lewis will come on to try a monster field goal it will be 56 yards he has tried two 60 and 58 one hit the crossbar the other was long enough but it was wide but now we have a timeout with 4 54 to go in the third quarter and we'll be back to see if they go ahead and try this long field goal in a moment 4 54 to go in the third quarter and lsu coach mike archer has changed his mind he won't go for a 55-yard field goal he'll send our matt to frank the punt what happened he was going to kick the field goal they had one guy short he had to call a timeout he'd rather punt the ball and the worst give it to him with the 20 instead of a missing the field goal and give it to him with the 39. that's 19 yards of valuable property back to receive is mike bowen crumley tries to hang it up bowen signals fair catch and makes it just outside the 10-yard line and they do pin georgia back deep in its own territory [Applause] the nhl on espn will continue thursday october 15th the los angeles kings will host the boston bruins our live coverage begins at 10 30 p.m eastern 7 30 pacific the first game we had went to overtime with the canadians and the flyers so that's the way the national hockey league is going to go on espn this year that missed extra point by crumley by the way his first best since 1985 he had 54 straight coming into that last touchdown where he missed they'll give it off to ellis the fullback and he'll take it up to about the 15-yard line ellis primarily a blocker doesn't get that much chance to run the football and a m struggles past houston stanford league washington state that's a second quarter score tied between arizona california that's the third period and jerry faust trying to knock off oregon state wyoming and byu they're tied up will keep you up to date on everything hawaii has come from behind tate diving forward to about the 17. georgia needs to get after the 21 for a first down this was the lsu strategy to knock it down put him in there play good defense get the ball back around the 50 take it in and kick a field goal it'll be 19-9 then they really got him because then they got to get a touchdown and a field goal of being mike archer at 34 the youngest head coach in major college football 4-0-1 he wins this game the biggest one he has left is alabama in the conference he could go undefeated in the sec [Applause] but they've got to get by georgia first jackson trying to run it out of the pocket he's got the first down and more jackson to the 38-yard line where chris carrier knocked him down nice call on the offensive staff that time they run a little boot action we started everything to the left watch and then all of a sudden come back to the right he wanted to go number keep the number 83 warner but he was covered so he just took it and run it he's more dangerous running than he is throwing but the way he can move that football i tell you what if they keep him on the outside and put that hampton in number seven they're going to be tough to stop three minutes ten seconds to go third quarter first down georgia they trail by a touchdown tate sancho the first man to him but he dragged sancho across the 40 to about the 43-yard line i want you to see what's going on in the southeastern conference lsu if they can beat alabama if they win here got a chance to go undefeated georgia of course would have the one lost today tennessee after the tie with auburn only has alabama left so coming in they had the best schedule left florida alabama and auburn you see the others and the road they have to go lsu and tennessee would have the inside track [Applause] if lsu can hang on to this lead and georgia wants a time out on second and five jackson did not like what he saw when he looked at the lsu defense that time plus he called a formation and what happened is the georgia players were confused with the formation and therefore it would cost him a big five yard penalty he did a smart thing by calling with a crumbly field goal but back came lsu to take a 16-3 lead until georgia has scored here in the third quarter to make it 16-9 but they missed the extra point and that's a big point now what jackson do is he's talking to vince dooley and his staff he's talking to george hafner vince's with his his sets on he's the offensive quarterback coach and the coordinator he's been with with vince for eight years a key to vince's staff is that bill lewis the defensive coordinator has been with him eight years george haft has been with him eight years and when you get that kind of consistency you get a good football program tomorrow espn speed world presents the car champion spark plug 300 from a great race course we're doing the sega raceway in monterey california bobby ray hall and mario andretti will be there watch for allentown senior in the new porsche indycar our coverage starts at five eastern two pacific second down and five georgia option jackson cuts it back sancho got him from behind he's very close to the first down marker just across the 48 yard line i wouldn't be surprised pretty soon to see georgia run kind of an option and then a reverse play in that sancho all sancho does is see the ball go the other way and he comes down the line of scrimmage and makes a lot of plays in the backside what you need to do on a guy like sancho is to run a reverse on him if nothing else make him stay home so he doesn't make those big plays tommy clap number 97 was also in on that last tackle clap is a natural offensive lineman he was recruited as such and they switched him to defense they really appreciate his attitude because he's been a team player and taken the switch to defense very well you saw the measurement just shy third and inches jackson now 11 carries for 79 yards he's only passed for 55 so he's much more dangerous when he keeps the ball on the ground third ninjas georgia trying to keep the drive alive full house backfield tate first down the first man to hit him along with greg jackson the strong safety and one of the lsu players is down and it is chris carrier who was in on that big collision [Applause] tate is 208 pounds carrier also listed at 208 but he got the worst of that exchange but the difference is carrier's 6-4 and has a long frame and that tate is six foot two and he gets down nice and low and watch him now number 32 will come down gets a good block on the offensive line by mull number 50. good block by number 33 ellis now watch him drop his left shoulder and boom he pops him right there good hit by both people but it hit carrier in the shoulder and that sometimes can really give you a bad problem watch you see he doesn't get his body into him he hits him with his shoulder and that sometimes can separate his shoulder carrier is up trots off tony houston number 14. the red shirt freshman is in to replace carriers had an up and down career at one point mike archer said the kid is kind of a screw-off but he's got a lot of ability and that's a quote first and ten and they'll go with nate lewis a wide receiver who was in that tight formation and oliver lawrence number 99 makes the tackle on him along with daryl phillips that's a play we haven't seen yet today there's one guy in a ball game right now that can break the game wide open he's number seven hampton he's in and plays a tate now the reason they got him in now is because of the fact that if he does cough the ball up lsu gets it it's not really dangerous marin going into lsu territory it's been a time-consuming drive we're down to 114 to go in the third quarter second and ten georgia hampton here comes the reverse osborne and now the flea flicker back to jackson now throw wide open touchdown thomas dropton holy cow [Applause] do you believe that the reverse to osborne back to jackson thomas was five yards behind the secondary jackson hit him in stride and he just dropped it all right there goes hampton captain osborne osbourne of jackson jackson to thomas and it's the same guy that make the sensational catch in the left-hand corner which just drops off his hands too bad that's all right oh jackson was ready to celebrate the touchdown tough to come back from that but jackson jack controller overthrows nate lewis at the sideline heartbreaking for georgia those are the plays that can change a game you work so hard on the trick plays you come in it works like a charm and you drop the ball it didn't work like a charm because he threw it a little bit too far if he'd had a little bit more arc on it thomas could have went over and jumped on it and caught it that's all right thomas number nine caught a great touchdown pass and he dropped this one he'll be back the short punter is on david dukes left footer sales one out of there jackson signals for the fair and makes it on the 13-yard line of lsu so lsu dodges a real bullet we had it we were looking at a tie game right here you know the thing that's really probably most discouraging in georgia is you never expect a play like that to work that works for the atos versus the sigma campus on sunday afternoon not georgia against lsu right oh and it worked perfectly just like the coaches threw it up and now the main job on the georgia sideline is to rebuild the confidence of that young man so the next time he comes back in the ball game he's not thinking about dropping a touchdown pass he's ready to play again sammy martin in the ball game and martin 35-40 he's got speed to the georgia 45-yard line and lsu hurts georgia with a 38-yard scandal you know i've seen this happen a hundred times what happens is psychologically the whole team lets up he gets a good pocket line of scrimmage number 26 smith pisses him that is off to the races 20 beasley misses them but i've seen this happen a hundred times the team psychologically gets down after they miss a big play like that last one fine block by brian kitchen this is fuller and a tail back and fuller breaks it up the middle down to the georgia 35 very close to another first down fuller the third tailback the sophomore out of leesville really takes the wind out of your sails doesn't it vince and you can say what the defense wasn't on there when that happened but the defense was emotionally pumped he saw the play working it was gonna be a touchdown and all of a sudden nothing that's why it's almost impossible to coach 24 years at one school things like that happen to you fuller again he'll get five yards this time down to the georgia 29. [Applause] and that young man being talked to by just about everyone after dropping the touchdown pass and they're trying to get his head back in the game as georgia trails by seven and in the third quarter [Applause] this is ray sherman the receiver coach of georgia vince dooley brought him in a couple of years ago from purdue because he's a pass specialist and he's talking to thomas the young man had dropped that pass and he's telling me look don't worry about it you caught one and that wasn't a really good play you'll be back to win it on a reverse play in a little while everybody be cheering thomas thomas thomas second down and five for lsu they lead by seven and they're driving as we start the fourth quarter fuller who has run well since he's been in the ball game inside the 30 to about the 29 brought down by 99 tyrone mcclendon [Applause] michigan state leads by six fourth quarter against 12th ninth michigan washington knocks off arizona state the huskies getting back in the picture and oregon doing a job on usc in the third quarter big play here third and four [Applause] hudson has mickey harris number 30 behind and martin is on a wing comes the blitz they pick it up and throw complete to davis first down at the georgia 17-yard line that was a perfect best automatic of the day hudson number 13 so one-on-one coverage on davis number 82 watch he breaks it to the inside plants on number 26 smith and gets the first down that was an automatic and that was a sensational call ben smith is a junior college transfer played one year at northeast oklahoma a m after he couldn't get into georgia because of academics and then transferred here nebraska and oklahoma both wanted [Applause] martin cuts it back into the middle running hard down to the 12 yard line martin turner not much into five yards but you know why he did that that's because george has a well-coached team in pursuits well and he's cutting back behind the pursuit that does not work against poorly coached and very slow teams but now they seem to find an answer davis to the outside or martin's in the middle hudson and ottawa isn't it nice and balanced they've really done a job that's why they're number six in the nation and undefeated against a good schedule martin again cuts it back again to the five martin to the one-yard line first down and goal lsu and the senior from new orleans has really made a difference when he's been in there and he's making them on and he's making them on counter plays in other words they start one way get georgia who wants to hit him to go one way watch they'll all go to the right all of a sudden he cuts it back cutting back is the most difficult thing to defend for and martin's got a tremendously powerful stride and goes in there martin 11 carries 68 yards first and goal [Applause] harrison fuller now and there's the bass [Applause] flag is down as fuller goes into the end zone but it i think it's a delay against lsu that'll cost him five mistakes near the goal line have hurt lsu this year he's real upset because they got the wrong kind of formation and let me tell you why that was caused because of a substitution situation they brought in fuller and harris because they're bigger and stronger i tell you what leave that martin in there he'll find a sneaky way to get in there anyhow instead of first and goal from inside the two they're back at the seven yard line first and goal 12 58 to go in the game it's lsu by seven bidding for more [Applause] fuller grantley has him at the five along with bill goldberg 95. you asked why fuller why harris because obviously they practice all week getting bigger stronger backs in there but that's not always the way speed is power not size and sometimes a guy like martin can find those little holes and get it into the end zone i always like my best runners down here not the biggest runners you may have seen uh left guard rough and rodrigue being pulled away from the block had a chance to talk to his dad yesterday who played at lsu from 62-64 and he knew his son was always knew he was going to end up in lsu and very proud of him too maybe a yard for victor jones as bill goldberg the left guard on defense made the stop again and georgia has been very tough near the goal line all year long they're tough against lsu because lsu doesn't have a good concept here lsu got down there and all of a sudden went away from their whole game plan they haven't run those plays at all today what makes them think they're gonna work down there give the ball to davis get the ball to martin they'll find a way to get in and score third and goal from the four mcgee in motion [Applause] mcgee couldn't hold it the pass thrown behind him and mcgee with the diving try just couldn't keep his hands up [Applause] all right hodson's rolling out to his left he throws the ball sidearm mcgee tries to get the ball almost does it but when he hit the ground the ball came loose at least they tried to play they had a chance of making it those other plays didn't get him anything mike archer thought he had it that's wishful thinking brown dyke will try a 21-yard field goal and he's got it [Applause] brown dyke who has been a major factor in this game put an lsu up 19-9 with 11-17 left cfa football is being brought to you by volvo a car you can believe in 11 minutes 17 seconds to go fourth quarter david brown dyke has tied his own school record with four field goals in this game and has georgia down by 10. the bulldogs do not have that kind of offense that can bring you from behind matt defranc will kick off as they try something different instead he just goes ahead and booms it away hampton three yards four yards deep almost brought it out osborne convinced him to stay in the end zone and georgia will start from its own this is going to happen the last part of the game right now lsu is going to get the ball three more times georgia's got to keep them to one field goal and give him 22. george is going to get the ball three more times they've got to score two touchdowns and beat them 23-22 that's the way they're gonna have to win the game on defense and they gotta score two out of three times hampton is in a tailback the freshman speed burner rushed for 227 yards a week ago in his first start as a collegiate jackson scrambling looking for room gets out to the 23-yard line james jackson jackson had 165 yards rushing coming into this ball game and he has been far more dangerous today on the ground than he has been throwing at 12 rushes 82 yards he's only completed 55 yards worth of passes on 4 out of 10. and georgia uses real time consuming drives and there isn't that much clock left with 10 45 to go [Applause] jackson on the option lsu defense did very very well mall bro just exactly where he was supposed to be and makes the tackle they had the pitch man covered and jackson had no choice but the game number 90 came from the inside which means he goes inside out so when jackson cut back boom he was right there if he'd over pursued he could have cut back and made a great play third down five yards to go for georgia they'll split the backs this time ellis 33 in hampton 7. jackson throws out complete to osborne touchdown charger cassius osborne with his first touchdown catch of the season and it's 19-15 georgia can get within three crumley who missed the last time has this one and crumley is flattened and a flag goes down they'll assess that one on the kickoff i'll tell you what coach archer is going to not sleep tonight on this defensive call he brings number 40 bryce into the ballgame who hasn't been playing he brings bryce on a strong safety blitz they pick it up one on one on osborne and the guy goes all the way a touchdown a horrible defensive call in that situation against an average offensive football team you don't need to put the pressure on jackson he puts it on him by himself that gets georgia back within three i think some people will ask would you have gone for two points there to get within get within two now watch us go yeah i'd go for one now see now there was a blitz number 40 was in there that's what happened they blitzed number 40 and left the guy one-on-one out there and marlboro can never catch osbourne and he's going for a touchdown now i second-guess that call only because they're playing georgia another team put the pressure on the quarterback there's a timeout with 9 45 to go from athens we've got a three-point game 9 45 to go and sanford stadium 82 000 strong is rocking as georgia has gotten back in the ball game on a 74-yard touchdown pass and nine yards deep williams takes it lsu will have to start from its own 20 right now let's check in with tim brando all right mike patrick and this game just over you see over my shoulder michigan state and michigan this game was won actually in the second quarter lorenzo white who had 148 yards rushing at halftime bowls over that made it 14-3 and beauchembachler's club goes down by a final score of 17-11. how long has it been since ohio state and michigan lost in the same weekend in the big ten mike it's been a long while and if you were watching that game we welcome you to athens georgia where lsu is up by only three in the fourth quarter hodson throws detention complete and tension is belted out of bounds by ben smith hodson now 16 out of 24. and we talked about a little while ago we said that if they were going to get the ball again three times and georgia had to win the game on defense by keeping them the only three points remember this is their first time georgia scored on their first time that was a gain of five harvey williams is backing at tailback for lsu he has only gained 33 yards so far today they'll give it to the fullback that's victor jones and jones had to cross the 30 he's got the first down seldom used at least in this game victor jones comes up with a big run there nice call everybody including you and i thought williams is going to run the ball and come back a nice little draw to victor jones who's the state 185 pound wrestling champion from zachary louisiana he was 34-0 as a wrestler always liked wrestlers they were tougher than the regular guys martin is backhand and tailback and martin has done the job today 80 yards on the ground he's caught passes for 45 more play victor martin great protection back to martin on a little screen if he was supposed to have blockers out there they disappeared in a hurry and mark just pounds it out to the 37. but what a wonderful call why everybody's going crazy everybody's going to crazy great call by archer invite him in go crazy get through a nice little screen watch come on in come on and get me throw a little screen off the mark even though he doesn't need anybody out there in front of him 99 mcclendon can't cover him and it's good play for lsu beautifully set up by the play fake second and five got to the 38-yard line that'll bring up a third and three and it's getting a little tight here in athens okay third and three what do you do you take hudson and you get the ball somehow to davis georgia says what are they gonna do they're gonna get hudson to davis so now it's who can execute right now third and three with seven minutes 31 seconds left lsu is up by three hudson changing the flood four-man rush they don't even get [Applause] [Laughter] gets it back to the 17-yard line the number two tackler on this ball club comes up with a huge play they finally got hodson to make a mistake watch he throws the ball is slightly defected 54. guthrie intercepts it mcgee makes a good play from the bottom remember we talked about it a couple of minutes ago they had to win this game on defense not on offense now he knows the ball is deflected get over there squishy cam but boy i'll tell you what george is moving in now georgia down by three already in field goal range tate back in the trailback trying to take it outside they run him [Applause] okay vince's strategy right now is not to do anything stupid he'd rather tie the score in 1919 now did not get any points so i think you'll see his play selection will be that way now hodgson's play selection he's talking to the quarterback coach upstairs john brecker is to keep doing what you do don't worry about that play hampton comes in at tailback on second and seven they'll give it to them how about them dogs the difference between hampton and tate kate would have had a five yard gain hampton got a touchdown that extra speed and quickness big point after here crumbly to make it a four-point game and does and it's 23-19 georgia watch a little misdirection fake one way pull the guard and tackle and now hampton right here ladies and gentlemen the difference between him and tate he's got such great speed he made it into the end zone where tate would have been knocked down i tell you what the guy has got something that you can't coach mike it's called greatness he's got greatness written all over a big play big game he's got to have it look at him drive it in for a touchdown what a play a 14-yard touchdown run by hampton has given georgia the lead 82 000 who paid their way in here have gotten their money's worth martin and fuller deep to receive fuller at the one he's got a c fuller still on his feet out to the 40-yard line big return for the sophomore out of leesville fuller certainly strong enough big enough they almost bust this one because they put a good seam in there sometimes after scoring a big touchdown the kickoff team has a tendency to lit up but i like the way he's protecting the football and driving forward look at that he runs right over number 35 that's driving himself forward lsu's got plenty of time they've got to play within themselves and come back and win this ball game hodgson 17 out of 26 176 yards in an interception he'll need to get it done now and haunts him to throw has had great protection all day has to run at this time and he'll pick up about three and really takes his shot way out of bounds and a flag goes down as ben smith number 26 hit him three or four yards out of bounds and he just cost georgia 15 yards with a stupid play absolutely no excuse to go after a man who's that far out of bounds [Applause] watch him come up right there and hit him [Applause] okay one thing that he learned archer right after him boy i'll tell you what because you don't hit anybody another thing that's that's not a good play smith you've never hit a quarterback on the other team's sideline you know what i mean you have got no friends over there and vince dooley trying to work one of the officials a little bit but he's not going to argue very hard about that george has got their 23. they got to keep these guys for three to make a 22 and win the ball game at the last minute the penalty moves it down to the georgia 42 6 39 to go mickey guidry is in it quarterback after hodson really took the blast at the sideline guillory came in in the second quarter and let him do a touchdown option to williams williams still on his feet driving forward to the 35 they'll say he stepped out of bounds at the 37-yard line that he showed me in the first half that he's got experience he's a senior 6-2-198 he can take the team in there there's not that much of a drop off he ran a nice option play lsu's got to be careful not to not to do something stupid here play within themselves they've got plenty of time to 6 33 to go fuller comes in at tailback we haven't seen martin in a while as williams goes out they'll give it to fuller bradley got him at the line of scrimmage he dove forward to the 35-yard line hodson on the sideline and he wants to put that helmet on and go back in the game and that's what he'll do on third and three ed zombrecker is the offensive quarterback coach and the offensive coordinator he's upstairs calling to plays and this is one of the biggest plays of his career third down and three the ball on the 35 with 603 to go martin back in the ball game at tailback there's only six seconds left on the play clock they gotta hurry up and hodson's gonna have to use a timeout to avoid the penalty we have a timeout between the hedges and athens 5 53 to go it's georgia by four 53 seconds to go in the game georgia by four mike patrick and lee corso with you from athens georgia it's been a great comeback by the dogs but lsu bidding to go back ahead third and three johnson to throw great protection again throws complete to williams excuse me martin at the 30-yard line and sam martin has been there for every big play that lsu has needed today except when they got down to the goal line they took one of the best players out of the game now watch as hobson goes back he's looking deep see his eyes looking deeper he's looking deep for davis but he throws a nice little soft glass to martin in there i think martin is a quick enough guy like hampton is on georgia to win this game for lsu first down lsu at the georgia 29. they're in their passing formation hudson to davis inside the 20 to the 18 to 19 yard line should be good enough for another first down 5 13 left another great call another great call because now you got davis on number 49 brown now watch he comes down and cuts it to the inside now you say why is he wide open you see 42 and 60. that's webster and bradley they took number 23 martin across the middle that was a beautifully executed offensive play by the lsu tigers it's another first down lsu the number six team in the nation trying to avoid the upset here at georgia it wouldn't be much of an upset with georgia ranked 15th comes the blitz hotson unloads for davis incomplete couldn't hold it beasley was back there along with mark vincent it would have been an incredible catch what it this is ladies and gentlemen is one of the best automatics you'll ever see under pressure watch this is an automatic play that he threw to a spot where martin wasn't even anywhere davis wasn't even near that he did that because lsu came on the blitz watch there's double coverage on him but he throws it right into the scene anytime georgia has a tendency to blitz it's right down here on the 20-yard line 4 52 left second and 10. a field goal doesn't do them any good it just gets it within one although it might come to that another blitz time to throw complete to davis to the seven that'll be another first down [Applause] and georgia with the defensive scheme they play simply has no chance to stop the pass at the top of the show we said that they were going to blitz them but they cannot play one-on-one miles smith's a nice young man number two but he cannot cover window davis if he stayed out there until he was 35 years old they're too good on the one-on-one passing game george has got one choice though they can really come after him now and try to force a mistake an interception or a fumble first and goal at the eight davis 11 catches 127 yards martin goes out fuller comes back in they'll run fuller on the sweep and he'll get to the six maybe the five once again they have gone to the bigger backs inside the tent fine i'm not going to bring it up again i just say that their the past history shows they haven't been scoring much and i think that's one of the reasons they take out their quickness and some of the best players in for bulk and i don't think you can do that clock turning 356 and counting from athens it's 23-19 georgia over lsu second and goal for lsu from the sixth play action hanson know where to throw now on low tension touchdown lsu and they went back to what they do best throwing the football and to who 49 kitchener starter they faked everything to the right and came back now they got to go for two because one will give another tie but now he's going for one he'll go for another time well he'll be up if he doesn't go for the one a field goal would beat him so they'll have ground who's kicked four field goals on to try an important important point after and brown dyke has it okay what they did on this one they rolled out in other words they faked that ball watch him he goes to his right and number 49 kitchen is just kind of messing around over here and all of a sudden he slips out any time you give a quarterback that much time and it's man for man coverage somebody is bound to get open and ryan kitchen made a great play he's from baton rouge the thing i like about him the best he lettered in tennis he must be some kind of an athlete to beat six foot three two thirty to be a tennis player and there is archer all right 25 26 23 the dogs have got it with 3.36 they can win the game now with a great play to hampton or 24 osborn osborne has already scored a touchdown so has hampton they are deep to receive and vince dooley trying to pull out another one here in athens georgia as he has so many times but lsu has a great road record much like miami florida 10 in a row right now [Applause] and this is not 10 visits to the little sisters of the poor defranc is on to kick again floats this one up and hampton at the three he can fly but this time he'll only get back to the 24 yard line and 3 29 to go in the ball game georgia down by three okay if i was georgia this is what i would do i would make sure that that the osborne number 24 and hampton number seven and jackson number 14 get the ball all the time because those are the three guys that got the quickness that can win this game for wins vince goulet well hampton is out and tate is back in at tailback i wouldn't do that [Applause] jackson on a roll and throws incomplete john thomas dropped the ball i throw the ball to 24 osbourne i throw the ball at 24 oscar thomas right now is shook up because he dropped that pass i don't care what coach sherman tells him the guy is still shook up you got to go to number 24 osborne because he's got the speed boom to make a tackling a break a tackling goal he joined us late on a flea flicker play thomas was wide open and dropped the touchdown pass at the goal line second and ten georgia they'll split the backs jackson to throw sanchos coming out of blick but he can't get there good protection they go to the tight end sadowski out to the 35 and troy sadowsky very very close to a first down and where they marked it looks like they have it good throw that time by jackson he had to thread it in there and that time lsu all drifted to the outside because we haven't called sadowsky's name but one time they all said well he's not going to vote 87 that was a nice play by jackson hitting sedowski number 87. 304 and counting in the game jackson on the delay to his full back alfonso ellis takes it out to the 39. it'll be second and four georgia with two timeouts left lsu has won boy when you're on the short end of the score that clock goes in a hurry absolutely we talked to vince dooley yesterday that if he would go for a tie or not he's going to have a decision pretty soon if he gets up there 26-23 you kick the field goal or you go for the touchdown jackson with a long signal count that takes time off the clock he'll dump it off the tate on a little screen tape to midfield it'll be a first down for georgia but it's a nice play by tate but he's going to come out of here if they'd have thrown that same screen to seven he'd still be going because watch he gets good blocking out here by number 69 burrows and then he takes off and he breaks one tackle and he got at least the first down two minutes 17 seconds to go in the game they restart the clock [Applause] georgia down by three hampton is back in there at tailback jackson floats one near side he's got lewis open and lewis with the pass behind him couldn't turn around in time to make the catch that was a good call because what they did is they took 24 instead of his bait everybody jumped on osbourne and left lewis wide open going on the sideline he didn't set his feet he tried to lay it up there and it just goes out of bounds and took him out of bounds because it was thrown over he didn't set his feet come on vince you got it and you say that vince dooley's not a motion look at that 24 years of this [Applause] second and ten for georgia from midfield [Applause] osbourne at the 31 that'll be a first down and cassius osborne who had caught only nine passes in five games has made two big big plays in this one okay osborne is a game breaker he can come across the middle now watch him he's from statesboro georgia and they're all proud of him right here he catches this ball alpha deflection which means he really concentrates on it very very well and gentry makes the tackle now one of the things that happens in a situation like this and especially here on a 20 or 30 yard line is they keep running a guy across the middle and then mike they run what they call a post flag and they hit him in a left hand or right hand corner for a touchdown and win the game lsu has an injured player it's clint james number 70. he is being assisted off the field right now by two of the staff there's crumbly on the sideline he may have to kick a game-tying field goal and james goes out and carl dunbar number 63 checks in there's james dunbar comes in on the defensive line for lsu this is the biggest defensive stand of the year jackson 8 out of 16 169 yards a minute 40 left in the game to tate and take knock down by hills it gets to the all 28. why do i question that call because not they're gonna make four or five yards but look at the clock 126 120 now he's gonna have to call a timeout or something boy you just don't ever do that send osborne back in the ball game clock is running on second and seven we're down to a minute 15. thomas who dropped the touchdown pass comes to the near side as a flanker osborne in the slot jackson a little jump pass incomplete and then intercepted by kevin guidry tipped and picked off by guidry hampton court catch the ball the ball was a little high but i've been talking about hampton on hampton hampton but he just missed this play but right there it deflects into the air and 27 gigery comes up and makes the play and remember gettry is the guy that got beat in the left-hand corner for a touchdown and i'll tell you what sometimes mike let me tell you something after being a coach for 30 years sometimes you win them just like this when you don't know why guidry with the second interception of the year and all lsu has to do right now is run out the clock georgia only with one timeout jones keeps the ball and the bulldogs on the sideline absolutely devastated after a great fourth quarter comeback georgia with two timeouts can only stop it twice 51 seconds left 51 seconds to go and it's lsu's game 26-23 they have the football georgia with only one timeout left and it looks like lsu is going to be able to run out the clock yes and lsu has played some good games and had some good teams paul diesel was a coach at lsu and he won the national championship in 1958 they had 11-1 11-0 season charlie mclennan was the head coach at lsu for 18 years he went to 13 goals won over 69 of his games and he's now the executive director of the american football coaches association and lives in sunny orlando florida georgia uses its final timeout to stop it with 42 seconds left we want to thank our spotters today danny daniels and arthur trish our statistician is always john madre who had some help up in the booth today from steve taylor and lance owen we want to thank all of them for their help today and vince dooley in his 24th year on the verge of losing a heartbreaker unless he can conjure up a miracle vince dooley is also the athletic director and he's developed one of the best all-around men's and women's programs in the united states the georgia men and women's program last year combined and they've been the most successful in the sec five out of the last seven years the total sports program that's john casey the freshman kicker on the sideline his dad is the strength coach played on vince dooley's first team here in georgia what they're talking about right now see there's enough time for georgia to block a front and win this game because they cannot use the whole clock out so they got to be careful they don't make the first stop it's all over now they've got the first down and that's it but that was a big point lee yeah victor jones has the first down if they hadn't made it that geor lsu would have had to do something on fourth down because the clock would not have run out right what i would have done is taken the ball and got the kicker and ran out of bounds in the end zone and gave him a safety 26-25 but they made the first down and archers undefeated as a head coach he reminds me a lot of howard schnellenberger who he uh worked for for eight years at miami he's a good young football coach hodson will go to his knee and that's going to be the last play they do not have to snap it again they're talking about archer being young at 33 to head coach they forget the guy on this sideline vince dooley was 33 years old when he became the head coach at the university of georgia and look what he's done 24 years at this great school and mike archer is 5-0-1 he has played some of the best in his first year as a head coach and they have yet to beat him he's got a great squad of kids and we'll go out and shake hands with vince dooley in the center of the field it's got to be a thrill for archer to come here to athens georgia and beat a team as good as georgia a team that was uh it was a toss-up game as far as the experts were concerned george has only lost eight sec games in the last 10 years they're 45-82 now they're 45-9-2 which is not a bad round [Applause] lsu protects its sixth sixth rank and our volvo player of the game from the university of georgia cassius osborne two catches 93 yards one of which was a 74-yard touchdown catch that got his club back in it and sam martin for lsu who pulled off the big plays 82 yards rushing in 13 carries six catches for 56 yards volvo will contribute 1 000 to the general scholarship fund of each school our final score 26-23 lsu for lee corso this is mike patrick saying so long
