The Georgia Bulldogs have been snubbed once again. This time, Fox Sports’ Joel Klatt has snubbed the Georgia Bulldogs from his way-too-early college football top ten for the 2020 season.
Klatt put Texas A&M, Notre Dame, and Florida, who all lost to UGA in 2019, ahead of the Bulldogs:
1️⃣ @ClemsonFB
2️⃣ @OhioStateFB
3️⃣ @AlabamaFTBL@JoelKlatt lists his way too early top 10 for next season! 🙌 pic.twitter.com/eAy5FOIbcK— FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) January 14, 2020
Klatt’s top ten is as follows:
1. Clemson
2. Ohio St
3. Alabama
4. Florida
5. Oklahoma
6. Penn State
7. LSU
8. Oregon
9. Notre Dame
10. Texas A&M
It bears mentioning that the same UGA defense who gave up a combined 47 points to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, the Florida Gators, and the Texas A&M Aggies and is returning almost all of their starters. Georgia’s defense gave up the least points in the country in 2019. Base on the elite defense alone, the Dawgs deserve to be in the top ten.
Georgia’s offense is more questionable, but the Bulldogs will have better receivers in 2020 (George Pickens will be a monster) and have the usual elite stable of running backs. Can Wake Forest transfer QB Jamie Newman step up at UGA? Will Georgia’s offensive line hold up against the elite defensive lines of the SEC?
Those two questions will go a long way for determining the success of Georgia’s 2020 season. UGA is bringing in another elite recruiting class as well.
