Georgia football star makes national PFF team of the Week 2

A Georgia Bulldog player named to national team of the week distinction by PFF.

Pro Football Focus just released their college football conference and national teams of Week 2. Georgia Bulldog center Drew Bobo earned a spot on the national team thanks to his dominance overall in protection. Bobo didn’t allow any pressures the entire game and delivered some impressive run blocking. Bobo did have a holding penalty on a play where he was pulling to the left, but he had a near perfect day and absolutely earned his distinction

Tate Ratledge was the right guard pick for the SEC team of the week. Ratledge was named as one of the top 50 college players entering the season, and he shined on the right side of the line with Drew Bobo, also allowing zero pressures and showing effectiveness as a pulling guard on running plays.

Georgia had a dominant 48-3 win over Tennessee Tech with impressive performances in almost every aspect. Next week, they’ll be looking to keep their momentum up against the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday, Sept. 14

Social media reacts: Georgia topples Kentucky in big home win

UGA football social media is hyped up after the Bulldogs’ best performance of the year.

Georgia football is the last remaining undefeated team in the SEC. The Georgia Bulldogs crushed Kentucky, 51-13, behind an efficient offensive performance against the Wildcats.

Georgia quarterback Carson Beck showed excellent control of the offense. He threw for 389 passing yards and four touchdowns against No. 20 Kentucky.

The Bulldogs got off to strong start against the Wildcats. Georgia opened the game with a 21-0 lead and never allowed Kentucky to have hope. Georgia punted once all game.

Kentucky’s offense punted eight times and failed to establish the run against a tough Georgia defense. The Bulldogs held Kentucky to 183 total yards while gaining 608 yards.

Georgia superstar tight end Brock Bowers had another great performance with seven receptions for 132 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Georgia football fans are fired up as the Bulldogs showed they are capable of winning a third consecutive national championship in 2023. How did Georgia social media react following the Bulldogs’ dominant win over Kentucky?

Georgia injury report ahead of UGA vs. Kentucky

No. 1 Georgia is once again dealing with key injuries headed into a big matchup…

No. 1 Georgia is certainly not at full strength headed into the top-15 matchup with No. 11 Kentucky this weekend.

The Bulldogs have been dealing with a multitude of injuries since fall camp and were down 12 players in last week’s 34-10 win at No. 18 Auburn.

Starting quarterback J.T. Daniels is still nursing a lat injury which has held him out since the second quarter of the Vanderbilt matchup on Sept. 15.

Daniels has been taking an increasing amount of reps each week, signaling a return in the near future.

Starting corner Ameer Speed (ankle) and running back Kenny McIntosh (hamstring) did not make the trip to Alabama, while receivers Jermaine Burton (groin) and Arian Smith (shin) didn’t see action versus the Tigers.

Preseason All-American left tackle Jamaree Salyer went down during the game with an ankle injury and safety Christopher Smith went out with a separated shoulder. Coach Kirby Smart said both could have returned if needed, but they have been limited in practice this week.

There is some good news, however, defensive back Tykee Smith covered kickoffs and played a few snaps at safety versus Auburn. It was the first time the West Virginia transfer took the field as a Bulldog.

Smart gave an update on the growing list of injured Bulldogs on Tuesday, including an optimistic take on the status of receiver Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint.

“…Ameer Speed doesn’t look like he’s gonna be able to make it back this week. Dom (Dominick Blaylock) still not back,” Smart said. “Rosemy I think looks good this week, he’s taken a lot of reps he’s been working like I said, I thought he looked good in warm ups the other day…”

“Jermaine Burton’s done well and worked, repped and he hasn’t taken the volume that he would normally take, but he’s hitting his speeds, so feel good about him. There’s so many I can’t even think of rest. Chris Smith’s been able to practice, he’s in a black jersey – he’s not contact right now – but he’s moving good, and staying in shape. Jamaree (Salyer) is kinda the same way, he’s conditioning and working out and watching the periods and I think he’s going to be good, but he’s not able to take all his reps.”

The Bulldogs have been able to play well without many of its star players, which is a testament to just how deep this team is in 2021.

UGA will face one of its toughest tests yet when the Wildcats come to Athens on Saturday afternoon. Here’s an updated injury report ahead of the game.

Georgia vs Kentucky series history

The Georgia Bulldogs have dominated the Kentucky Wildcats recently.

The Georgia Bulldogs have dominated the Kentucky Wildcats recently. Georgia returns to Athens for a 3:30 p.m. home game against the Wildcats.

The Dawgs enter the contest with the longest winning streak in the history of the SEC East rivalry.

Here’s a look back at a history of the Georgia-Kentucky rivalry:

Georgia football freshman CB leading the SEC

Several young stars are playing beyond their experience for the No. 1 Bulldogs…

No. 1 Georgia is atop the polls and 6-0 thanks to the play of several young stars on both sides of the ball.

On offense, freshmen Ladd McConkey, Adonai Mitchell and Brock Bowers are leading the team in receiving, while redshirt freshman Kelee Ringo is making a name for himself at starting cornerback.

According to Pro Football Focus (PFF), Ringo leads the SEC in passer rating allowed.

Ringo, a former five-star recruit and the No. 1 corner in the 2020 class, missed most of last season nursing a surgically repaired shoulder. UGA lost both starting corners to the NFL this spring, which slotted Ringo for a starting gig this season.

So far this season Ringo has racked up eight tackles, four pass breakups and an interception.

The Scottsdale, Ari., native has made the most of his first opportunities as a Bulldog, while contributing to a Georgia defense that ranks first in the country in almost every major statistical category.

For UGA to continue to dominate and make a run at a national title, young stars like Ringo will have to continue to play beyond their experience.

Georgia will take on No. 11 Kentucky in Athens this Saturday.

Kirby Smart updates JT Daniels’ injury status

Georgia’s JT Daniels has missed the last two games with a lat injury…

No. 1 Georgia is at the top of college football without its starting quarterback. J.T. Daniels is still dealing with a lat injury that has held him out the last two games.

Backup Stetson Bennett has stepped in and played especially well in Daniels’ absence, but we expect Daniels to take over once he’s healthy.

Georgia coach Kirby Smart spoke on Daniels’ status during his Monday press conference.

“I’m not going to get into any hypotheticals. We are trying to get JT back. He was much improved this last week. For the game, he was able to throw a lot more than he was last week,” Smart said. “He’s going to throw again today, even though today will be a much lighter game than even our normal Mondays are. But we will look at seeing how he is and where he is, but I’m not getting into that.”

With the way the Georgia defense is playing, Smart and staff are not in a hurry to rush Daniels back and risk further injury. Bennett has done a good job of controlling the game and protecting the ball in Daniels’ place.

Bennett threw for 231 yards on 14 of 21 passes with two scores, along with six rushes for 41 yards on the ground in a 34-10 win over No. 18 Auburn.

With how Smart likes to keep decisions close to his chest prior to gametime, we likely won’t know who will get the start versus No. 11 Kentucky until kickoff on Saturday.
