3 takeaways from Georgia’s impressive 31-17 win over Tennessee
2. Georgia’s defense shines again
After a few rough games from Georgia's defense, they finally bounced back as well and played extremely well against a talented Tennessee team.
It did not start out that way however as Tennessee scored a quick 10 points in their first three possessions to jump out to an early lead. But Georgia's defense was nearly perfect from there, especially in the second half.
UGA held Tennessee to zero points in the second half. With how good the Vols are on offense, likely nobodly thought that was possible. But the defense did what everyone knew they were capable of and dominated the Vols for just over half of the game.
The only bad thing you could say about Georgia's defense is that they only forced on turnover during the game. But when they played as well as they did and held Tennessee to zero points in the second half, it feels a little silly to be picky about that.
