Georgia Football 2017 Preview: Samford Bulldogs.

What do they do not so well:

Offensive and defensive line play is a real weakness for Samford. That should give Georgia the opportunity to really beat down on this team. UGA’s defense is strongest at the point of attack and should be able to stuff the run and disrupt the pass unless Samford dramatically improves its offensive line play from last year. Offensively, this game is a great opportunity for UGA to put up yards on the ground.

Nick Chubb and Sony Michel are always threats to break off big runs but this game in particular offers Georgia a chance to control the clock. If they are going to survive in the SEC, they need to be winning these battles in the trenches. Considering that these were Samford’s biggest weaknesses in 2016, this is even more important.
