Georgia Bulldogs Team Overview
Last game, the Georgia Bulldogs lost 41-34 against the Alabama Crimson Tide as 2-point road favorites. The game went over the total of 50. Georgia has a record of 3-1 straight up, 1-3 against the spread, and 1-3 over/under the total. Georgia ranks 44th for total offense, 20th for passing, 101st for rushing, and 52nd for scoring.

Alabama’s freshman defensive back, Zabien Brown, intercepted Carson Beck’s pass in the end zone to secure the victory and stave off a furious Georgia rally. In sum, Beck was 27 of 50 passing for 439 yards with three touchdowns. Also, he threw three interceptions in the first multi-interception game of his career. But he put on a show in the second half. Beck is 16-2 as a starter, with both losses coming to the Tide. The Bulldogs scored three touchdowns over the final 9:46. But Alabama got the only one it needed. Milroe led Alabama to touchdowns on its first four drives against a defense that was the only one in the FBS not to allow one coming into the game.
A few minutes into the second quarter, the Bulldogs were down 28-0. Hence, their streaks of 42 consecutive regular-season victories and 28 straight regular-season SEC wins were seemingly all but over. Instead, Georgia and Beck fought way back.
Georgia has looked vulnerable for a program that has won two of the last three national titles in the last two games. Including a 13-12 victory over Kentucky. But the Bulldogs showed they haven’t gone anywhere with the dominant second half.
