Nate Frazier and Chauncey Bowens each scored two touchdowns to lead host No. 4 Georgia to a 28-6 win over Austin Peay Saturday.

The game’s start time was moved up an hour to avoid inclement weather, but lightning in the area forced a two-hour delay at halftime.

The Governors recovered a Bulldogs fumble deep in Georgia territory late in the third quarter, but could only pick up five yards and settled for a 43-yard Smith field goal.
