Alabama survives Georgia comeback in all-time thriller: college football scores, games, updates

The biggest game of the season so far has delivered in a big way.

No. No. 4 Alabama had No. 2 Georgia on the line early in their top-five showdown, leading 28-0 at one point, but the Bulldogs continued to fight their way back and forced a dramatic finish in Tuscaloosa . Finally, after trading leads late in the fourth quarter, Alabama secured the victory with a miraculous catch-and-run TD by freshman Ryan Williams, and then an interception in the end zone by cornerback Zabien Brown.

The 41-34 finish capped an incredible day of college football action – one that got going early as Kentucky went into Oxford against No. 6 Ole Miss and stunned the Rebels, 20-17, in a back-and-forth affair that ended with a crazy field goal that would have tied the score.

Later in the day, No. 21 Oklahoma got a late pick 6 to engineer a comeback win over Auburn and earn its first SEC win. No. 16 Notre Dame also earned a key win of its own by holding off No. 15 Louisville, while No. 9 Penn State handled No. 19 Illinois at home and Colorado blew out UCF on the road.

Follow below as Yahoo Sports breaks down all the remaining action tonight.

  • Final: Alabama 41, Georgia 34

    No. No. 4 Alabama wins an absolutely crazy game against No. 2 Georgia. Bama squandered a 28-point lead, but found a way to save it with Ryan Williams’ circus catch in the final minutes.

  • Alabama interception!

    Bama’s Zabien Brown picks off Georgia’s Carson Beck in the end zone for his 3rd INT today and that should seal it for the Crimson Tide!

  • Georgia converts on 4th and 2 and has the ball at the Alabama 36 yard line.

    1:15 to play

  • We’re at the 2 minute timeout. Everyone take a breath.

  • ALABAMA RESPONDS WITH A TD!!

    This game is off the charts!

    Ryan Williams scores a 75-yard touchdown on perhaps the play of the year and Bama is back in front!

    Alabama 41, Georgia 34. 2:18 to play.

  • Alabama fans are experiencing it

  • TOUCHDOWN GEORGIA! BULLDOGS LEAD!

    Dillon Bell gets behind the Bama defense for a 67-yard touchdown!

    Georgia has pulled away from 28 to take the lead in Tuscaloosa! Incredible!

  • Touchdown Georgia!

    Dillon Bell takes over at the 3 and suddenly it’s a ball game in Tuscaloosa!

    Alabama’s lead dropped to 33-28 with 5:39 remaining.

  • Georgia threatens again

    Carson Beck completes two big passes and immediately gets the Bulldogs near the goal line!

    This may temporarily be a one-score match 👀

  • Alabama’s offense didn’t accomplish much in the second half. And Georgia gets the ball back with just over seven minutes to play. Do the Bulldogs have life here?

  • Final: Penn State 21, Illinois 7

    The Nittany Lions are staying strong at home and will improve to 4-0 on the season. They host UCLA next week before traveling to USC.

  • Georgia TD!

    This one isn’t quite over yet. Bulldogs find the end zone on Carson Beck’s 8-yard toss to Lawson Luckie.

    2-point attempt no good.

    Alabama leads 33-21 with 9:55 to play.

  • Penn State Touchdown!

    That’ll do it for this one. Kaytron Allen just smashed his way into the end zone to essentially seal things in Happy Valley.

  • FUMBLE! Alabama ball

    Georgia QB Carson Beck gets the ball knocked out by Qua Russaw and Alabama’s Jah-Marien Latham picks up the ball near midfield.

    Beck turned it over three times today and the Bulldogs are running out of chances to make a comeback.

  • PSU milk clock off

    The Nittany Lions suck the life out of things in Happy Valley. There’s only 2:24 left in the game and they have the ball deep in Illinois territory.

  • Bama adds a FG

    Graham Nicholson hits from 28 yards.

    Alabama leads Georgia 33-15, late 3rd.

    But here’s another angle on Ryan Williams’ wild catch that led to the field goal.

  • Ashton Jeanty with a monster TD run for Boise State

    If you need more evidence as to why BSU running back Ashton Jeanty should be in the Heisman conversation, here it is:

  • Penn State interception!

    The Nittany Lions returned the pick for a touchdown, but there was a penalty on the return, so it will be a PSU ball near midfield.

  • Circus catch for Alabama freshman!

    Alabama true freshman Ryan Williams made an incredible 55-yard grab.

    Take a look:

  • Penn State misses FG!

    The Nittany Lions’ promising drive falters and Sander Sahaydak misses a 40-yard kick that would have given them a 17-7 lead.

    That’s what the Illini needed in this low-scoring affair.
