Refs hosed us on multiple occasions. It's frustrating because we could have got the W in spite of that.

The offense was incredible tonight. Gutsy performance from King without the ability to put a lot of zip on the ball.

The WRs and TEs made big plays.

We played well on defense until the refs and prevent defense let them back into the game.

I think especially what hurts is Key teams have shown they’ve wanted this game more for 3 straight seasons. And somehow when there was 6 minutes left on the clock, I deluded myself into finally believing the game result would reflect that.

Fumble, bad throw to Singleton in OT that would've ended it, missed read to Singleton that would've ended it... I hate it because that couldn't been a historic performance but King choked.

Go hide in your hole. King played great and is beat to hell. His arm is still not right. Great effort by the whole team and coaches.

Georgia is a more talented team. We gave them everything our guys had. Hare loss. Considering where we were in 2021 this is a remarkable improvement across the board for players and coaches.

I can’t stand Georgia. They are a really good team. We were there equal until the 8th OT

Someone above said embarrassing loss??? I have gotten more positive texts from people watching the game who didn’t have a horse in the race. On the global scale this loss was anything but embarrassing based on the messages I got. Some from people who I haven’t chatted with in months or even years. This was good pub as we looked to be every bit their equals. The negatives from the night have and will continue the to be brought up in this thread.

The opportunities don’t come enough to not be devastated by this loss. We had them and let it slip away. They seem to do that a lot more than we do that to them.
We played great but lost when they could have won. Too many wasted opportunities in first half.
My goodness the refs gave them any questionable call. Not sure I’ve ever seen a line judge call PI with a back should pull. Also freaking targeting.
I take no comfort in losing. I hate those arrogant *****s.

That loss sucks. We outplayed them for the vast majority of the game, but the defense or the defensive play callers choked big time in the 4th quarter.

The pass interference call against GT in the end zone on 4th down was complete trash though, and that would have been ballgame.

We also left 13 points on the field in the 1st half. Shoulda coulda been up 30-0 at halftime. Should have kicked fg on the turnover on downs. Should have made the missed field goal. And should have hit on the td pass that was behind singleton in the end zone.

Haynes King played beast mode, but I think he tried to do too much down the stretch. Too many keepers up the middle, including the fumble and the failed 2 pt attempt at the end.

I'll agree with this partially but I'm past moral victories. Good teams close.

It takes a better than good team to beat Georgia in Athens. There is a reason they have won 31 straight home games. There is a reason only Alabama had beaten them in the regular season for nearly 4 years until their loss at Ole Miss.

Ther are stocked with NFL talented players and have very good coaches.

Our guys punched way above their weight class tonight.

Tough loss. You comment is hot garbage!

Good point. The rest of the CFB world knows that Georgia has the refs in their pocket. They saw all the same stuff we did. They also saw our guys put 300 yards on them in the first half. Primetime on Thanksgiving weekend with no other games on, we put on a show.

The loss sucks. And I don't want to hear from all the mutt fans at work on Monday about how great a game it was and how worried they were. I wanted the W. Despite that, it's clear that this team is on the rise and we are going to be a force soon.

I love our coaching staff and team. The fight was amazing. The only thing I can criticize is how do we not have some sort of crazy Philly-special-esque play to run in 7th OT? I understand not wanting to run something wacky the first few times but we played so vanilla in OT.
