In the end, the smallest man on the field showed just how tough Georgia really is."Not man enough to beat Alabama", indeed.
Billy Bennett kicked a 32-yard field goal with 38 seconds left as the seventh-ranked Bulldogs blew a 12-point fourth quarter lead and recovered to beat No. 22 Alabama 27-25 Saturday.
"I was just thinking that we do this in practice everyday," the 5-foot-8, 168-pound Bennett said. "I saw time running down and I thought, 'Oh goodness, this is coming down to me."'
Thomas Davis picked off Brodie Croyle's pass on the next play from scrimmage to seal the win for Georgia (5-0, 2-0 SEC), the last remaining unbeaten team in the conference.
The Bulldogs are off to their first 5-0 start since 1982 and snapped a seven-game losing streak in Tuscaloosa.
