The Georgia Bulldogs (7-2, 5-2 in SEC) had a lot to prove coming into an away matchup versus the Ole Miss Rebels (7-2, 4-2 in SEC). Despite some great wins versus the Clemson Tigers and Texas Longhorns, who are two teams in College Football’s latest top 25 rankings, Georgia’s lost against Alabama and looked sloppy against Kentucky, Florida, and Mississippi State, three teams near the bottom of the SEC.
No one knew which version of the Bulldogs fans were going to see, but people were expecting the championship contender they looked like against Texas.
Safe to say, that didn’t happen. Georgia was defeated again in an ugly 28-10 loss. Despite what looks like a blowout score, this game was actually close. Georgia started with a 7-0 lead. Unfortunately, the offense shut down essentially the rest of the way. They couldn’t get anything going in the first half, and while the second half was bettter, but turnovers doomed Georgia.
Despite a fumble by Nate Frazier, Georgia was driving with 7:30 left in the fourth quarter of a 22-10 game, but on the 4th down try, Carson Beck’s pass was intercepted, and Ole Miss went down the field to kick a field goal with 3:25 left to make it 25-10. On the next drive, Beck was strip sacked and Ole Miss used the great field position to kick a field goal to reach the final score of 28-10.
Carson Beck wasn’t as turnover prone as past games, but he was too hesitant, only racking up 186 yards and an interception on 31 passing attempts. Of course, his offensive line did him no favors, allowing five sacks, including the strip sack.
