3. Georgia is capable of repeating as SEC Champions

No one can deny that Georgia didn't play their best game, but that might be one of the best takeaways from this game. Georgia was able to go into a tough environment against the No. 15 team in the country and still walk away with a victory.

That is what championship teams do, they win when all the cards are stacked against them. Tennesse couldn't have had a better start to this game as they scored 21 points before anyone could even blink. But Georgia didn't flinch. They settled down, strung some stops together and pounded the rock to stay in the game until they hit their stride.

It is still hard to suggest that Georgia is a true National Championship contender after this win, but they are without a doubt one of the biggest threats to win the SEC this season.
