Alabama surges to halftime lead over Georgia
Alabama saw Georgia come out strong in Saturday’s SEC Championship Game. However, the Tide rebounded and wound up with a 17-7 lead at halftime.
The biggest plays happened on Alabama’s last drive of the first half.
Nick Saban opted to go for it on a fourth-and-4 up 10-7 and Jalen Milroe hit Isaiah Bond for 17 yards.
Milroe then connected with Jermaine Burton on a 15-yard TD pass with 48 seconds left before the break.

Burton is a transfer from … Georgia.
Alabama has won 78 straight games when leading by double digits, the longest active streak in FBS.
