Frustration is hitting an all time high in Georgia’s fanbase after the Bulldogs 41-31 win over Mississippi State. The team hasn’t lived up to their expectations, and with the schedule only getting tougher from here something needs to change and fast.

Certain members of the Georgia football team are feeling the frustration build as well. DB Malaki Starks spoke on that after the Mississippi State game.

"I don’t think we’ve played a complete game of football yet. And that’s really frustrating."

Now I don’t know if I totally agree with Starks or not because UGA did destroy Clemson in their first game of the season. Yes the Bulldogs only led 6-0 at the half, but it’s hard to complain about anything after winning that game 34-3.

I also don’t think you can take anything positive away after beating Tennessee Tech in week two either.

But after those two games Starks is right, Georgia hasn’t played a complete game yet.

The one point win over Kentucky in game three is a great example of Georgia being unable to find any sort of rhythm on offense. Then you have the loss to Alabama where Georgia found themselves down 21-0 at the end of the first quarter. Just imagine how different that game could’ve gone if UGA showed up in the first quarter.

Then we have the last two games where things were maybe slightly better. But like I already said (and almost every UGA fan as well) it hasn’t been good enough recently.

Do we honestly think Georgia stands a chance at Texas this week if they don’t play a solid four quarters? I don’t. I actually think the game could get ugly if they don’t.

So something needs to change, especially in the first quarter where the Bulldogs continue to struggle. But one things for certain, Kirby Smart and Georgia will need to play a full 60 minutes in Austin next weekend if they want to upset the Longhorns.
