ATHENS, Ga. (AP) - Stetson Bennett threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score and No. 1 Georgia shut down No. 2 Tennessee’s high-powered offense in dominating the Vols 27-13 in an SEC showdown of the nation’s top-ranked teams.
The defending national champion Bulldogs led 27-6 before Tennessee scored its first touchdown late in the fourth quarter.
Georgia put itself in position to move from No. 3 to the top spot in next week’s second College Football Playoff ranking.
Tennessee was the initial No. 1, but Georgia showed it is still Top Dawg.
