We’ve reached the starting stretch of the 2024 college football regular season.

There are only three weeks until the conference championship week in the first week of December. Week 12 hasn’t been the most loaded slate, but No. 1 Oregon had to survive an upset scare with a 16-13 win at Wisconsin. And we saw Florida pull away a bit with a 27-16 win over No. 22 LSU.

And in the highlight of the night, No. 12 Georgia pulled away from No. 7 Tennessee for a 31-17 victory that will play a pivotal role in the SEC title race. Meanwhile, Travis Hunter continued to put a stamp on his Heisman campaign with a monster game in Colorado’s 49-24 win over Utah.

Stay tuned the rest of the night for live updates. (Scroll down to follow the action live.)

  • Final: Georgia 31, Tennessee 17

    No. 12 The Bulldogs finish SEC play at 6-2 in the conference, keeping their playoff and conference title hopes alive. No. 7 Tennessee falls to 8-2 overall and will have an uphill battle to stay in the playoff hunt.

    Nate Frazier punches it in from the 2 and it should be game over in Athens with the Bulldogs up 2 TDs.

    Georgia 31, Tennessee 17 | 2:26 to play

  • Georgia tries to put the game away

    The Bulldogs have a 1st and a goal at the Tennessee 2. Any score probably puts this one away with 2:29 left.

    Meanwhile, we’re well underway in Provo, and Kansas has the early lead on No. 6 BYU via Devin Neal’s 8-yard TD rush.

  • Final: Oregon 16, Wisconsin 13

    No. 1 Oregon pulls off the upset and goes 11-0, all but securing a spot in the Big Ten title game. Wisconsin almost performed a miracle.

  • Oregon wiretapping!

    No harm, no foul for the Ducks, who get the interception on a deflection. Matayo Uiagalelei ended up playing.

    And that will end it. No. Oregon will survive in Wisconsin.

  • Oregon is stopped on a fake FG!

    Oregon goes for a cool fake field goal, but the run is stopped a yard short of the first. And Wisconsin is back in business with 1:45 left and a timeout.

  • Wisconsin turns it over on downs

    Braedyn Locke throws incomplete on 4th and 9 and Oregon takes over with 2:03 left.

    Wisconsin still has all three timeouts, so this one isn’t over yet.

    The Ducks get all the way to the 6-yard line, but stall from there. Atticus Sappington hits a chip-shot field goal to give Oregon the lead.
