Not a pretty look. UGA has given up 5 of their 16 TDs given up in the last five minutes of the 2nd quarter.

The common factor in the last three games? Special teams:

South Carolina got a 51 yard kickoff return and was aided by a 15 yard face mask penalty. 

Tennessee returned a kickoff 47 yards to set up the first TD. We then fumbled the ensuing kickoff to set up the second.

Alabama blocked a punt for a TD. Then we short legged a punt for 36 yards from deep in our own territory.

I don't have any real answers, expect maybe never have a special teams play at the end of the 2nd quarter again (or defense, if I'm being honest).
