Well, that will do for the Capital One Bowl as the Georgia Bulldogs take down Nebraska.
The Bulldogs started slow and were down by one at the half. But Aaron Murray and the offense got it together and were able to pull away from the Cornhsukers in the second half.
The defense also started off slow, but made plays when they needed to in the fourth quarter. The two second half turnovers forced by the Bulldogs proved to be the difference.

Nebraska was driving, But Martinez throws his second pick to Swann and the Cornhuskers are in some serious trouble.
Martinez is limping as he hurt is left knee on a first down run. We'll see if that effects him the rest of the way.

They could get there.

The Georgia defense comes up big again as Nebraska goes three-and-out. The front seven for Georgia is starting to fly around the football.
Georgia 38, Nebraska 31. Aaron Murray throws a 24-yard TD pass to Keith Marshall to give the Bulldogs lead once again. The catch by Marshall had to be one of the most athletic touchdown receptions for the Bulldogs this season.

The third quarter will end with Georgia driving and deep in Nebraska territory. Todd Gurley is imposing his will on the Nebraska defense.
The Georgia defense answers with their own three-and-out. Looks like both defense are starting to settle down and this game will likely come down to who has the ball last.

The Georgia offense could do nothing with the turnover as they go three-and-out. Huge defensive series for Nebraska.
It looks like the play stands and the Bulldogs come away with their second turnover of the afternoon.
It looks as if Nebraska fumbled and was it recovered by Alec Ogletree. If the play stands, huge turn of events for the Bulldogs.
There is no need to sugarcoat it.
No way to sugarcoat that Georgia's defense just is a mess right now, continually on its heels. It needs a game-changing play or break.

Burkhead runs for 28 yards because the defense is not lined up for Georgia. What is going on with the Bulldogs sideline?
Georgia 31, Nebraska 31. Murray throws a 49-yard touchdown pass to Chris Conley and throws a 2-yard, 2-point conversion pass to McGowan to tie the game at 31. Nice answer for Georgia who took the momentum away from Nebraska with that score.
Just showed Nebraska AD Tom Osborne on the screen. He will step down as AD shortly. Osborne was a good of a college coach as they come and he will be missed around campus.

Nebraska 31, Georgia 23. Burkhead scores on a 2-yard run to give the Cornhuskers the 8-point lead. Once again, Nebraska ran it down the Bulldogs' throats, which has been a problem for Georgia this season.
Georgia can't stop the run, just like in the SEC Championship game. It will be something they will have to address in the offseason.
