Georgia always wins the 4th Quarter.
With the Ole Miss Rebels, the Bulldogs gave up a staggering 20 points in the final 15 minutes of play, and were outscored 20-10 in the fourth quarter alone.
Throughout the 2025 season, the Bulldogs built a reputation as a team that pulls away from games in the fourth quarter, and had done so numerous times this year. In their four one score victories this year, the Bulldogs were not outscored in the fourth by any opponents and gave up a touchdown just once in the fourth quarter of those games.

Why the Bulldogs Lost the 4th quarter.
A brain fart took place on going for it on 4th down inside our own 30 yard line. He can say the ball wasn't supposed to be snapped but i say don't put them in that situation.
Play calls on 1st and goal from the 3 when we needed to score a TD.
Letting the WR from Old Miss get behind our guy for a huge gain to get the game winning FG.
Just a few small things.

Agreed, but we don't get in those situations if we run the ball consistently. We ran a bunch of slow developing runs with our power back(McCray). Also, Nate was gashing them and we didn't keep riding him. I haven't rewatched it. I know we got behind the sticks a couple of times and that may have played into the outcome. But they shit the bed at the end of the half missing a FG. They were ripe for a death march coming out of the half and we let them off the hook.

Agree about start of 3rd quarter. I thought being uo at the half like we were and getting the ball to start the half, we would make one of those long drives and put it away. Three and out was horrible.

I think we went into a shell to end the first half, tbh. Just WAAAAYYYY too early to start breaking down camp and moving on to the next game.
