Dragon Slayers: Helmet stickers from Georgia Football’s dominating win
It was a day of celebration at the University of Georgia yesterday and The Classic City pulsed with energy. And that was before Georgia football even played a down Between The Hedges Saturday afternoon.
By the time the Dawgs capped off a dominant 56-7 win against the defending Conference USA champion UAB Blazers, the Georgia faithful were absolutely jubilant.
As much as it was a celebration for Georgia football fans, in some ways it was also an exhale. Anxiety coursed through Dawgnation in the lead up to gameday as news of JT Daniels oblique injury dominated the headlines.
The hyperventilation went into overdrive when the possibility of Stetson Bennett starting in Daniels stead over Carson Beck made the rounds.
As it usually is, all the worry was for naught, and Georgia played the role of dragon slayer from the opening kick to the final whistle. Everything came up Dawgs on the Saturday in Athens slot machine.
There were stand-out performances up and down Georgia’s roster yesterday, but these were the ones that were helmet sticker worthy.
