Alabama survives Georgia’s comeback bid in all-time thriller: College football scores, games, updates

The biggest game of the season so far delivered in a big way.

No. 4 Alabama had No. 2 Georgia on the ropes early in their top-five showdown, up 28-0 at one point, but the Bulldogs just kept fighting their way back and forced a dramatic finish in Tuscaloosa. In the end, after trading leads late in the fourth quarter, Alabama secured the win with a miraculous catch-and-run TD by freshman Ryan Williams, and then an interception in the end zone by cornerback Zabien Brown.

The 41-34 finish was the capper on an incredible day of college football action — one that got going early when Kentucky went into Oxford against No. 6 Ole Miss and stunned the Rebels, 20-17, in a back-and-forth affair that ended with a shanked field goal that would’ve tied it.

Later in the day, No. 21 Oklahoma got a late pick 6 to spark a comeback win over Auburn and earn its first SEC win. No. 16 Notre Dame also notched a key victory of its own in holding off No. 15 Louisville while No. 9 Penn State handled No. 19 Illinois at home and Colorado blew out UCF on the road.

Follow along below as Yahoo Sports breaks down all the remaining action tonight.

  • It’s been a tight one in Boise so far. Ashton Jeanty broke off a big early run but has been fairly quite since for the Broncos.

  • Bama’s Zabien Brown picks off Georgia’s Carson Beck in the end zone for his 3rd INT today and that should seal it for the Crimson Tide!

  • Georgia converts on 4th and 2 and has the ball at the Alabama 36-yard line.

    1:15 to play

  • We’re at the 2-minute timeout. Everybody take a breath.

  • This game is off the charts!

    Ryan Williams makes a 75-yard TD grab on maybe the play of the year and Bama is right back in front!

    Alabama 41, Georgia 34. 2:18 to play.

  • Dillon Bell gets behind the Bama defense for a 67-yard TD catch!

    Georgia has rallied from 28 down to take the lead in Tuscaloosa! Unbelievable!

  • Dillon Bell takes it in from the 3 and it’s suddenly a ballgame in Tuscaloosa!

    Alabama’s lead down to 33-28 with 5:39 to go.

  • Carson Beck completes two big passes and immediately gets the Bulldogs down near the goal line!

    This could be a one-score game momentarily 👀

  • Alabama’s offense hasn’t done much in the 2nd half. And Georgia will get the ball back with a little more than 7 minutes to play. Do the Bulldogs have life here?

  • The Nittany Lions hold strong at home and will improve to 4-0 on the season. They host UCLA next week before a trip to USC.

  • This one isn’t quite over yet. Bulldogs find the end zone on Carson Beck’s 8-yard toss to Lawson Luckie.

    2-point try no good.

    Alabama leads 33-21 with 9:55 to play.

  • That’ll do it for this one. Kaytron Allen just pushed his way into the end zone to essentially seal things in Happy Valley.

  • Georgia QB Carson Beck gets the ball knocked out by Qua Russaw and Alabama’s Jah-Marien Latham scoops it up near midfield.

    Beck has turned it over 3 times today, and the Bulldogs are running out of chances to try to mount a comeback.

  • The Nittany Lions are draining the life out of things in Happy Valley. There’s only 2:24 left in the game and they have the ball deep in Illinois territory.

  • Graham Nicholson hits from 28 yards.

    Alabama leads Georgia 33-15, late 3rd.

    But here’s another angle of Ryan Williams’ wild catch that set up the field goal.

  • If you need more evidence as to why BSU running back Ashton Jeanty should be in the Heisman conversation, here it is:

  • The Nittany Lions returned the pick for a touchdown, but there was a penalty during the return, so it’ll be PSU ball near midfield.

  • Alabama true freshman Ryan Williams made an unbelievable 55-yard grab.
