Later in the half, Murray completed a 40-yard touchdown pass to Tavarres King to give the Dawgs a 14-10 lead at halftime.
In the second half, Murray added touchdown completions of 42-yards to Malcolm Mitchell and a 23-yards to Rantavious Wooten. UGA’s other scores came on an Alexander Ogletree 8-yard run and a safety by the defense.
