Georgia football is off to a slow start in the red zone, but has a good turnover margin and excellent scoring defense
The Georgia Bulldogs have started slow in all three games to begin the 2023 college football season. The Bulldogs have struggled in the red zone. Georgia’s red zone issues made last week’s game against South Carolina a lot more competitive than it should have been.
Georgia quarterback Carson Beck has done a great job of taking care of the football. Georgia’s offense only has one turnover, but the offense has not been particularly explosive through three weeks.
Defensively, Georgia’s run defense is off to a slow start when compared to Georgia’s sky-high run defense standards. The Georgia defense is doing an excellent job of getting stops on third down.
Where does Georgia football ranks in key statistics ahead of Week 4’s game against the UAB Blazers?
Kirby Smart gives injury update on star Georgia football safety Javon Bullard ahead of UAB game
Georgia Bulldogs standout safety Javon Bullard went down in first quarter of the Ball State game with an ankle injury. Bullard was unable to play against South Carolina after he tried to give it a go in warmups.
Georgia safety David Daniel-Sisavanh started in place of Bullard against South Carolina. Safety Dan Jackson, who had a fourth quarter interception against South Carolina, also saw more action in Bullard’s absence. Sophomore safety Malaki Starks is Georgia’s other starter.
Georgia head coach Kirby Smart noted on Sept. 19 that Bullard has not returned to practice, so it is unlikely he will play in Week 4 against UAB.
He (Bullard) hasn’t been able to do much. He warmed up (against South Carolina), didn’t feel great in warmups, so we shut him down and hasn’t done much this week in terms of practice. I asked him today, and he is underwater running, got a boot on, but he has not been able to practice.
Bullard is a key cog in the Georgia defense. He was named the defensive MVP of national championship and the College Football Playoff semifinal against Ohio State. Bullard is playing safety, which is his usual position, after playing the star position at a high level in 2022.
[lawrence-related id=92303]
Bullard’s combination of speed and sure tackling helps the Georgia pass and run defense play at an elite level. Bullard finished last season with two interceptions, 46 tackles, and 3.5 sacks. Bullard was a 2023 preseason All-SEC selection.
DB Jaylen Key heads to locker room before half with injury.
Late in the second half, Alabama DB Jaylen Key was taken to the locker room after suffering an injury against Middle Tennessee State. The severity of the injury is unknown, but it was bad enough that he was not able to finish out the first half.
Key made the defensive play of the first half by picking off the Blue Raiders shortly before half which eventually led to a touchdown. Hopefully, it is nothing serious as he was one of the best-looking players for Alabama in the first half. The Tide secondary looks as if they’ll be the strength of this defense, so losing Key would be a very tough loss.
Alabama takes a 28-0 lead into halftime against the Raiders. Key’s health will be the most important question for Tide fans.
Alabama safety Jaylen Key headed to the locker room with members of the medical staff.

Let’s dive into who the Celtics might be targeting at No. 35.
Even with the offseason here in earnest, the Boston Celtics have plenty on their plate regarding their future as they continue to work out prospects projected to go in the second round of the ’23 NBA draft.
With the Celtics likely to need cheap depth in the future, look for prospects who are either polished enough to get some real minutes in their rookie campaign or who might be okay with a season or two stashed abroad while the team makes decisions about how it will use the new two way player slot added to rosters in the latest collective bargaining agreement recently adopted by the league.
Adding to our previous reporting of the team’s known workouts comes a new wave of prospects Boston has been working out — let’s dive into who the Celtics might be targeting at No. 35.
It’s no coincidence this team has the most retired jersey numbers with 17 banners hanging alongside them. https://t.co/q9NDoLJRtJ
