Georgia baseball blew an 8-0 lead in Game 1 against Ole Miss, then won a 14-inning marathon in Game 2.

The No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs baseball team blew an 8-0 lead on the road against the No. 18 Ole Miss Rebels in Game 1.

Georgia went up 8-0 in the top of the fourth inning after Henry Allen had a two-run single. Ole Miss went on to score 10 consecutive runs to win the first game of the doubleheader. Georgia allowed Ole Miss to score four runs in the bottom of the fourth and five runs in the bottom of the eighth as the Rebels held a 10-8 lead heading into the ninth inning.

Ole Miss sealed the deal in the top of the ninth to win. All 10 of Ole Miss' runs came from five home runs. Georgia's collapse is the latest in a brutal stretch of pitching for the Bulldogs.

Georgia allowed 14 runs in their series-clinching win over No. 24 Arkansas last week, but the Bulldogs won behind a historic 26-run performance from the Bulldogs' bats. Georgia then lost to No.
