Every week, Eleven Warriors dives into the mentions of Ohio State's coaches and players to bring you the #HotTakes and ramblings of Buckeye Nation. This week, we're using the bye to highlight the profound sadness Georgia fans experienced this weekend.
The Bulldogs were ranked No. 3 and in control of their playoff destiny when they hosted a 2-3 South Carolina team Saturday afternoon. Led by quarterback Jake Fromm and a strong defense, Georgia was a three-touchdown favorite heading into the contest.
It was supposed to be a formality.
The Gamecocks had different plans, however. Despite tallying just 297 yards of total offense, South Carolina forced four turnovers and limited the Bulldogs offense to secure a 20-17 upset win in double overtime.
