ATHENS, Ga. — Carson Beck threw four touchdown passes, Nate Frazier ran for 136 yards with three scores and No. 8 Georgia overwhelmed Massachusetts 59-21 as the Bulldogs tried to protect their College Football Playoff hopes. Georgia needed the big offense from Beck and Frazier to rescue a leaky run defense. UMass played its first game under interim coach Shane Montgomery, the offensive coordinator who retained his play-calling duties after replacing fired coach Don Brown. Georgia extended its streak of consecutive home wins to 30, the longest active streak in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
