Fans react to the insane Tennessee-Georgia ending

There's no other way to put it: Tennessee-Georgia was the wildest game of the 2016 season.

With Tennessee ahead 28-24, Jacob Eason completed a 47-yard touchdown pass with just 10 seconds to go to give the Bulldogs a 31-28 lead.

At that point, it looked like Georgia would get the victory, and all of a sudden the Vols' SEC title hopes were up in the air.

But then, an incredible thing happened. After a Georgia penalty on the ensuing kickoff set up Tennessee at midfield, Vols quarterback Joshua Dobbs dropped back on the final play of the game and uncorked the Hail Mary of a lifetime.

And following that play, the internet went absolutely bananas. Here are the best reactions from across the web.

The play was so good, it left Tennessee coach Butch Jones in tears.

And finally, Georgia fans weighed in.

Safe to say, we probably won't see another ending like that one all season long.
