The Georgia Bulldogs have just returned from a challenging game against the Kentucky Wildcats. The final score was 13–12, and despite Georgia’s offense having a poor performance, they prevailed. The Dawgs never seemed to be able to settle into an attacking rhythm, and it appeared that Kentucky’s excellent defensive strategy and Georgia’s poor execution were the main causes of the defeat.
Some supporters are concerned about Georgia’s offensive woes for the remainder of the season. The Bulldogs’ inability to move the ball down the field and frequent failure to capitalize on drives was uncharacteristic of them. But given Georgia’s past under Kirby Smart, fans shouldn’t be overly worried about Saturday’s matchup.
Only eight times since 2017 has Georgia failed to score more than 20 points in a game. The Dawgs are 7-1 and averaging 37.2 points per game in the games that followed their performances. Only once since 2017 has Georgia’s season-long scoring total in a game fallen short of 20 points. Georgia placed 50th in terms of points per game in 2019.
For all those connected to the offense on Saturday, it was an unusual day. The offensive line occasionally appeared disorganized, the quarterback Carson Beck missed passes that he usually completes every weekend, and the offense occasionally appeared uninspired. Fans shouldn’t panic, either, since Kirby Smart’s history suggests that these kinds of performances in Kentucky seldom seem to repeat themselves. particularly not in the match right after these performances, which is helpful knowledge for supporters to be aware of given Alabama is the team that plays next.
