Vanderbilt's Bryant Hahnfeldt barely missed a 49-yard field goal with 33 seconds left the ball grazed the upright and 19th-ranked Tennessee escaped with a 25-24 come-from-behind win over the Commodores on Saturday.

Another late deficit, another stunning comeback for Matt Ryan and No. 18 Boston College. Three games after Ryan led the Eagles to an improbable 14-10 win at Virginia Tech, he found Rich Gunnell for a 43-yard TD with 1:46 to go for a 20-17 win over No. 15 Clemson.

Tim Tebow became the first player in NCAA history with at least 20 touchdowns passing and rushing in the same season, Andre Caldwell broke the school record for career receptions and No. 14 Florida hammered Florida Atlantic 59-20 Saturday.

Georgia has done all it can. Now, the Bulldogs need a little help to reach the Southeastern Conference championship game. Knowshon Moreno ran for 124 yards, Matthew Stafford surprised Kentucky with a 10-yard touchdown run and Number 8 Georgia overcame four turnovers and an early deficit to beat 22nd-ranked Kentucky 24-13 today.

Travis Bell atoned for an earlier miss by kicking a 27-yard field goal with 15 seconds left as Georgia Tech overcame four lost fumbles to beat North Carolina 27-25 today.

Ashley Houts had 12 points and six assists, and No. 8 Georgia held Temple scoreless over the final 4:41 to beat the Owls 57-51 on Friday night. Gainesville's Tasha Humphrey had 10 points and 13 rebounds for Georgia.

The Great Motivator seems to have run out of ideas. The best Mark Richt could do for Saturday's crucial Kentucky-Georgia game was a ``red-out.'' Richt has pulled off two motivational coups in the past month, first ordering his players to get a celebration penalty against Florida, then breaking out black jerseys for last week's ``black-out'' game against Auburn.

Anthony Morrow scored 19 points to lead Georgia Tech to an 82-77 victory over Charlotte in the opening round of the Paradise Jam on Friday afternoon in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Matt Fields made a last-second layup to lead Georgia Southern to a 72-70 win over Cleveland State at the Glenn Wilkes Classic on Friday. Fields caught a short ally-oop pass from Dwayne Foreman to put in the game-winner with .01 on the clock.

Georgia Tech picked up its first player of the early signing period Thursday, landing point guard Iman Shumpert from Oak Park, Illinois.
