Junkyard Dawgs: Georgia defense impresses fans, media with ferocious performance

College football fans and media who enjoy defense got a load of fun on Saturday night in Charlotte.

Clemson and Georgia each delivered a dominant performance on defense, but the Bulldogs were especially impressive.

Georgia had 7 sacks and 8 tackles for a loss in a 10-3 win where Clemson was held to 2 rushing yards. Clemson was 5-for-17 on third and fourth down. Georgia also got a Pick 6 to fuel the victory.

Here’s a collection of fan and media reaction to the performance:

Remember in Tecmo Bowl when the opponent guessed the right play and you had no chance?

That’s Georgia defense on almost every play.
