Georgia DB Joenel Aguero ejected vs. Texas, suspended

Georgia defensive back Joenel Aguero was balling before being ejected against the Texas Longhorns.

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Dan Jackson wasn’t the only Georgia defensive back that was ejected for targeting last night. Joenel Aguero was ejected from the game late in the fourth quarter against Texas for a hit on Quintrevion Wisner. As a result of Aguero’s targeting, he is suspended for the first half of the Florida game on Nov. 2 after Georgia has its bye week.

Aguero played the star position in the secondary for Georgia against Texas. He was replaced by JaCorey Thomas and KJ Bolden replaced Dan Jackson in his position as safety. Thomas will likely be the star for Georgia in the first half of the Florida game.

Before the ejection, Aguero recorded five tackles, his first QB hit of the season, and one-half tackles for loss in this game. Overall this season, the sophomore has 19 tackles, 1 1/2 tackles for loss and a QB hit.

Aguero’s loss will leave Georgia super thin in the secondary, but Georgia will have a bye to celebrate the 30-15 win and prepare for the next game against Florida.

Aguero probably played his best game of the season against Texas.

Georgia DB Dan Jackson ejected, faces suspension

Georgia football safety Dan Jackson will be suspended for the first half against Florida after being ejected against Texas

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Dan Jackson was ejected from the Texas Longhorns game for targeting. Since Jackson’s penalty came in the second half, he will be suspended for the first half of Georgia’s next game.

Who does Georgia play next? The Bulldogs have a bye in Week 9 before they play the Florida Gators on Nov. 2.

Georgia played freshman defensive back KJ Bolden more snaps in Jackson’s absence. The Bulldogs will likely start Bolden and Malaki Starks at safety in the first half against Florida. Bolden has already played a bunch of snaps this season.

Entering the Texas game, Jackson had 31 total tackles, one interception and a fumble recovery. Jackson’s combination of production and experience will be missed against Florida.

Key Georgia defender Dan Jackson out for the year

The Georgia Bulldogs are expected to be without a key member of the secondary for the remainder of the 2022 college football season.

The Georgia Bulldogs are expected to be without a key member of the secondary for the remainder of the 2022 college football season. Junior safety Dan Jackson suffered a stress fracture in his foot and needs surgery to repair the injury.

Jackson has played a critical role for the Georgia defense this season. Jackson knows the Georgia defensive system very well and has 16 total tackles this season. Additionally, the 6-foot-1, 190-pound defensive back has forced a fumble and intercepted a pass in 2022.

Dan Jackson started four games in 2021. Last season, he recorded 40 total tackles and played in all 15 of Georgia’s games.

Georgia will have to lean more on star freshman defensive back Malaki Starks following Jackson’s injury. Georgia frequently has played three safeties this year. Senior safety Christopher Smith is expected to continue to start opposite Starks for the rest of the year.

Dan Jackson started the Oregon game for the Georgia defense. Malaki Starks has started for the Bulldogs since the season opener, but Jackson still has gotten a significant amount of snaps.

Jackson’s injury hurts the secondary depth for the Dawgs, who are about to face several explosive passing offenses over the next four weeks.

Tykee Smith, who is back after recovering from an ACL injury, Javon Bullard, and David Daniel-Sisavanh all are anticipated to have a larger role following Dan Jackson’s injury. Pro Football Focus has rated Jackson as one of the top safeties in college football.

Second half notes and observations from UGA football’s spring game

Second half notes and observations from UGA football’s spring game, G-Day.

The second half of G-Day was another taste of football on a nice day at Sanford Stadium.

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Dan Jackson intercepted Carson Beck to begin the second half of the G-Day spring game.

The Black Team recorded a fourth sack early in the first half.

JT Daniels continues to look comfortable and threw another touchdown pass to Kearis Jackson. A 40 yard pass on a wheel route to James Cook helped put Daniels and the offense in scoring position.

Punter Jake Camarda has had an impressive performance punting the football on G-Day. He has had multiple booming punts. There was no punt rush, so it is an ideal situation for punters.

Lewis Cine intercepted Stetson Bennett in the fourth quarter on a wheel route passing attempt. Zion Logue has continued to have a good game. He recorded a sack and recovered a fumble in the first half.

Offensive lines have been losing the battle at the line of scrimmage. Quarterbacks can’t move around as much because if they are touched, then it is considered a sack.

Adonai Mitchell has topped 100 yards on the day. He and JT Daniels has a good connection that will be important for the regular season.

Carson Beck and Darnell Washington connected for a late fourth quarter touchdown. Washington has looked impressive and should be the team’s top tight receiving tight end. Carson Beck looked sharp in the two minute drill.
