No. 1 Georgia (10-0, 7-0 SEC) will play at No. 19 Tennessee (7-3, 3-3 SEC) on Saturday in Week 12 (3:30 p.m. EST, CBS).
Third-year running backs coach Jerry Mack discussed what stands out about Georgia’s defense ahead of the matchup.
“The number one thing that stands out is their ability to rotate so many different people at the line of scrimmage with their front seven,” Mack said. “When you look at their defensive line, when you look at the linebacker core, the biggest thing is it is constant new bodies.
“As we go through all the film from the year, there is always a new body, new linebacker, new defensive lineman. They also do a really good job of shift blocks. Those guys do a good job at two-gapping, playing through the defender and making sure they shed and get to the ball carrier. The speed is something that jumps at you as well. Across the board all of those guys can run, so that is one of things I feel like stands out constantly against them.”
