UGA Twitter reacts: Georgia completes comeback, beats Cincinnati 24-21

Here’s the buzz from UGA Twitter on the Dawgs Peach Bowl victory.

No. 9 Georgia found itself down 21-10ย  to undefeated Cincinnati at the start of the fourth quarter.

The No. 8 Bearcats wouldn’t be up long after that point. A strip-sack by Georgia linebacker Azeez Ojulari set up a quick rushing touchdown by running back Zamir White, which sparked the Bulldogs to a comeback.

No. 9 Georgia has all sorts of troubles with No. 8 Cincinnati so far in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl.

Three Reasons Why You Should Watch The Chick-fi-A Peach Bowl

– Itโ€™s the annual referendum matchup in the College Football Playoff era. The committee throws the Group of Five programs a cookie, with the top-ranked champion from the American Athletic Conference, Conference USA, MAC, Mountain West and Sun Belt getting a big-name bowl slot against a Power Five program that wasnโ€™t good enough to make the CFP.

The Group of Five started out 3-1 in the CFP era against the big boys, but the Power Five has taken the last two matchups. This time around means a wee bit more because there wasnโ€™t a totally obvious No. 4 team for the playoff, and Cincinnati finished unbeaten and ranked eighth in the final rankings.

A win by the American Athletic Conference champion wonโ€™t necessarily change anything going forward, but in the battle for hearts and minds, it would give the Group of Five programs a major talking point. However โ€ฆ

– For good and for bad, Georgia is terrific. Talent-wise, itโ€™s right there with anyone in the country, but the quarterback play was shaky early on, things changed once JT Daniels was healthy enough to go, and the team ripped through a three-game run of wins with the offense improving along the way. That’s all a good thing for Georgia, but if the team plays at its top level, this might not be the prettiest of games.

– Cincinnati has been knocking on the door of big things under head coach Luke Fickell. The program won 11 games two seasons in a row – and two bowl games over Power Five teams – and then came this unbeaten campaign with a conference championship. The problem? There werenโ€™t any games against any top teams, and there werenโ€™t any against Power Five programs. Thatโ€™s about to change in a big way.
