Correlation does not at all times equal causation, however the referees on this Georgia-Texas sport could have gotten somewhat nudging from the group to overturn an enormous name.
Within the third quarter of the sport, whereas trailing 23-8, a Texas defender intercepted Georgia quarterback Carson Beck and received the ball deep into Georgia territory. The group responded by throwing empty cans onto the sphere, which compelled the officers to pause the sport. Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian tried to get the group to cease, however whereas he was settling the group down, the referees determined to assessment the play for go interference. After reviewing the play, the interception was overturned and dominated go interference in Georgia’s favor.
It has been a really tough evening for Texas, who had been so unhealthy within the first half that Sarkisian briefly benched starter Quinn Ewers for Arch Manning to attempt to get a spark from the offense, just for the offense to be equally unhealthy with Manning.Â
In the meantime, soccer followers have been ripping Texas all evening for getting blown out at residence by Georgia, prompting everybody to say the identical factor: “Welcome to the SEC.”
“That is for all these 2018 Sugar Bowl jokes. We did not overlook. WELCOME TO THE SEC (expletive)!!” one Georgia fan wrote.

“Welcome to the SEC Texas. I, for one, can’t imagine the daunting schedule of Colorado St, Mich, UTSA, UL-Monroe, Miss St, and this years model of Oklahoma didn’t put together you for Georgia,” wrote one other.
“Keep elegant, Texas. Welcome to the SEC,” faculty sports activities insider Brett McMurphy joked.
It is actually not the welcoming Texas wished.
The sport is being performed on ABC.
