LEXINGTON, Ky. — Rodrigo Blankenship’s 25-yard field goal as time expired gave Georgia a 27-24 victory over Kentucky on Saturday night and ended the Bulldogs’ two-game losing streak. Bulldogs quarterback Jacob Eason completed four passes for 42 yards before Sony Michel ran twice for 15 yards, including a 13-yarder to Kentucky’s 15 with 20 seconds remaining. After a Bulldogs timeout, Michel ran another 7 yards to set up Blankenship, who put it through to help Georgia (5-4, 3-4 Southeastern Conference) avoid falling below .500 after entering with four losses in five games.
