3. Georgia is banged up
As previously mentioned, Georgia is pretty banged up as the Dawgs head down the final stretch of the season. The 27-0 win over Missouri was nice, but it definitely came at a cost as Georgia lost a multitude of players to injuries.
Lawrence Cager, Georgia’s leading receiver, left the game with an injury. Trey Hill, the Dawgs’ starting center, left with an ankle injury and will surely be less mobile Saturday against Derrick Brown and the Tigers’ front. Versatile lineman Cade Mays left with a hurt ankle but indicated that he was good to go. And right tackle Isaiah Wilson also left the game on Saturday, however, he was able to return.
Smart said none of these injuries were too serious, but it will certainly be something to keep an eye on. Auburn plays physical football, and this one is sure to be a bloodbath, so hopefully the banged up Bulldogs will be good enough to give it their all.
