Is Georgia nation’s No. 1 team? Reactions pouring in as Georgia torches Oregon

The Georgia Bulldogs are absolutely hammering the Oregon Ducks Saturday.
At halftime, the Dawgs lead the Ducks 28-3. They’re doing it on both sides of the ball, too — offense and defense. Stetson Bennett has looked very sharp, completing 18-of-21 passes for 254 yards and 1 touchdown. He’s also rushed for 8 yards and 1 touchdown. Bennett has been making quick decisions, very accurate and efficient.
Pass catchers Brock Bowers and Ladd McConkey already look in midseason form.
Georgia’s offense finished 5-of-5 on 3rd downs in the first half.
Oregon quarterback Bo Nix — yes, that Bo Nix — isn’t fairing too well against Georgia’s rebuilt and elite defense. Freshman Malaki Starks reeled in an unbelievable interception, too. Through 2 quarters, Nix has thrown 2 INTs.
Heck of an interception by On3 Consensus 5-star safety Malaki Starks in his college debut. Was an @On3sports Preseason True Freshman All-American after receiving rave reviews in fall camp https://t.co/jcNUDjLBhE pic.twitter.com/5Xh6XQAlUB

College football fans are taking note of Georgia’s impressive first-half showing against Oregon. The Bulldogs entered the 2022 season as the No. 3 ranked team behind Alabama and Ohio State; however, UGA looks like it could be the best team in the nation, picking right up where it left off as national champions.
Social media certainly thinks so.
I was just about to post something similar. This Georgia team may be the best team! Damn.

Early cfb thoughts:
UCLA isn’t as bad as the first quarter they played.
Oregon no longer has that edge.
Georgia may be the best team in the country, where are their flaws?— Dodgers Legend Ernie???? (@DipdTruck) September 3, 2022
Georgia is the best team in the nation until they prove they’re not. Sorry!
