Georgia Tech got the ball to start the second OT, and King scored on a one-yard run set up by Malik Rutherford’s 20-yard scamper. The Yellow Jackets had to go for two per second overtime rules but were unsuccessful.
Georgia didn’t waste any time in the second OT after Cash Jones caught a 25-yard Beck pass to tie the game at 40.
The second touchdown capped a 32-yard drive that started after Dan Jackson forced a King fumble recovered by Chaz Chambliss.
Georgia Tech’s last-ditch regulation effort to win died at the Georgia 46-yard line after a fourth-down attempt failed with four seconds left. Beck’s Hail Mary attempt never came to fruition after a sack, sending the game to OT.
The in-state rivals soon went into overtime. Georgia struck first after Beck found London Humphreys for a 14-yard touchdown, but the Yellow Jackets responded when King found Eric Singleton Jr. for a 12-yard TD.
The second-longest game in college football history ended with Georgia outlasting Georgia Tech 44-42 in eight overtimes on Friday evening.
The Bulldogs won after running back Nate Frazier capped the eighth OT with a run up the middle, likely grabbing a College Football Playoff berth in the process.
Georgia Tech, which led 17-0 at halftime, took a 27-13 advantage with 5:37 remaining in regulation after quarterback Haynes King’s 11-yard touchdown run.
