Georgia’s wide receivers are better than they have been in long time. Speed! Playmaking ability! Size! Hardman going to have a HUGE year. He can do it all.

Georgia beat South Carolina so bad they’ve got a white running back in.

Bentley has thrown 32 passes. On pace for over 60. In my opinion that fits right into Georgia's favor. #UGA needs points on its first possession to take out the crowd.

Georgia has looked like the No. 3 team in CFB in this third quarter. Elite.
