WATCH: Kirby Smart on the Texas Longhorns vs. Georgia Bulldogs rematch

Kirby Smart on the SEC Championship Game, Texas Longhorns vs. Georgia Bulldogs rematch.

Things looked bleak for Georgia football when backup quarterback Gunner Stockton entered for the second half as the Bulldogs faced a 6-3 deficit against Texas on Saturday.

But Stockton, who was in for Carson Beck after the latter suffered an injury on the final play of the first half, led a 10-play, 75-yard touchdown drive on his first possession to give Georgia a 10-6 lead in the SEC championship game against Texas on Saturday, setting the tone for the Bulldogs' second half.

Stockton finished the day 12 of 16 passing for 71 yards with an interception, leading Georgia's two touchdown drives of the game.

Beck's story wasn't over Saturday after getting injured, however: He returned to hand the ball off to running back Trevor Etienne, who scored Georgia's game-winning, 4-yard rushing touchdown in overtime, which was forced after Texas tied the game on a field goal with 18 seconds left in the fourth quarter.

Georgia stymied Texas' rushing attack, as the Longhorns gained 31 yards on the ground Saturday. The Longhorns relied on quarterback Quinn Ewers and the passing game, as Ewers completed 27 of 46 passes for 358 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions.

Texas was able to move the ball on Saturday, but it was Georgia's ability to keep the Longhorns out of the end zone that was the difference in the SEC championship game.

Both teams will undoubtedly be in the College Football Playoff, with Georgia all but locking up a spot as one of the teams with a first-round bye in the CFP as one of the four highest-ranked conference champions this season. The Bulldogs, however, might be without Beck, meaning Stockton is going to need to build on his performance Saturday if Georgia wants to compete for the national championship.

Follow below for the recap and highlights of Georgia's SEC championship win over Texas:

That play got the crowd going in Atlanta.

Gunner Stockton is in at quarterback for Georgia, as Kirby Smart told ESPN that Beck will miss the rest of the game with his hand injury.

Brutal blow for Georgia.

It's unclear what Beck's injury is and how it'll affect his status in the second half today, but Georgia is definitely hoping it isn't major, especially with the College Football Playoff looming.

Here's more on Beck's injury:

Texas coach Steve Sarkisian is visibly upset in his halftime interview with ESPN's Sam Ponder after Sarkisian was asked about the Longhorns' multiple holding penalties in the first half.

"Well, hopefully they call them for a holding one of these times, too," Sarkisian said.

Sarkisian then walked off the interview and to the locker room.

Beck throws an interception to Texas' Anthony Hill on the final play of the half, which Hill tries to lateral to other defenders to try and score before halftime. The ball was then thrown backward and regained by Georgia, which didn't matter as time expired.

Beck was injured on the play, getting up and heading off to the locker room after the ball was forced in the air by Texas' Trey Moore.

It was a wild play to end the half, with two turnovers and multiple laterals.

Georgia continues to struggle offensively, going three-and-out after Texas' missed field goal.

Texas takes over on its own 19-yard line following the punt.

Ewers nearly throws an interception on third-and-5, forcing Texas to attempt another field goal. However, Auburn misses this time from 42 yards out, keeping the score at 6-3 with 4:31 remaining before halftime.

Georgia nearly kept Texas from tacking on another field goal as it dropped the interception, although it didn't matter as Texas missed the field goal anyway.

Texas is missing out on scoring opportunities today, especially as it's outgaining Georgia with 234 yards to Georgia's 53.

Georgia drives 49 yards in eight plays, capping off its drive with a 44-yard field goal by Peyton Woodring.

The Bulldogs get three points back and reduce their deficit to 6-3 with 6:32 left in the first half.

After back-to-back negative plays, Texas gets pushed back to third-and-26, which it can't convert.

The Longhorns then settle for a 42-yard field goal, Bert Auburn's second make of the day. Texas leads 6-0 with 10:22 in the second quarter and has dominated time of possession with 15:18 of game time compared to Georgia's 4:20.

Texas also holds a yards gained advantage, with 193 to Georgia's nine.

Ewers make another great throw on third-and-14, as Golden beats Daniel Harris again in a 1-on-1 situation for a 32-yard gain.

Golden already has four receptions for 107 yards after the first quarter, while Ewers is 7 of 10 for 149 yards with an interception.

Bulldogs have yet to get it going offensively in the first quarter, punting on their second possession.

Texas takes over at its own 20-yard line after the touchback.

Ewers had Gunnar Helm wide open for a touchdown, but Helm drops the pass before Bond was called for offensive pass interference anyway.

Ewers then throws a nice pass to Golden, who beat two Georgia defenders, but Golden couldn't haul it in.

Texas settles for a field goal, taking a 3-0 lead with 5:17 to go in the first quarter.

Ewers drops back and heaves a pass on third-and-13 to Golden, who brings it down over Malaki Starks for a 50-yard gain.

Texas vertical passing game with some success early.

Georgia can't capitalize off the turnover, as it goes three-and-out after Beck's quarterback sneak on third-and-1 is stuffed.

Georgia took the field on fourth-and-1 but took a delay of game after trying to lure Texas offsides.

Ewers throws to Isaiah Bond on third-and-9, but Bond drops the pass and gives up on the play, resulting in Daylen Everette intercepting the ball as in deflected off Bond.

Just a brutal mistake for Bond to kill Texas' momentum.

Ewers and Texas with a quick start, as the Longhorns have yet to run the ball but are finding success through the air. Ewers is 3 of 4 passing for 47 yards, with a 22-yard pass to DeAndre Moore Jr. on third down and two passes for 25 yards to Matthew Golden.

Longhorns to start with possession. We're underway from Atlanta for the SEC championship game.

Texas star offensive tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. is not suited up for the SEC championship game, as he was listed as a game-time decision on the SEC availability report. Banks Jr. gave it a go pregame, but it appears he's unable to play today.

Huge loss for the Longhorns, as Banks Jr. is a projected first-round pick in the upcoming NFL draft.

Texas and Georgia's quarterbacks are on the field pregame with just a few minutes until kickoff.

Both teams needing big performances from their signal callers.

Texas vs Georgia predictions

Georgia’s defense set the tone in the first game between these teams, but has been prone to giving up explosive plays down the stretch this season. This game could go either way, but there’s more confidence right now in Texas, which hasn’t lost since its last game with the Bulldogs.
