What to Expect in Georgia vs Tennessee
Georgia comes in riding an eight-game win streak in this rivalry. Their defense has once again been the backbone, with strong play up front and disciplined coverage on the back end. The Bulldogs’ offense has shown flashes but still has questions to answer about explosive plays in the passing game.
Tennessee is hungry to flip the script. The Volunteers haven’t beaten Georgia since 2016, and this year, they have the tools to compete. Quarterback Joey Aguilar has been efficient through two games.
The Vols’ receivers have stepped up, and the offensive line has protected well so far. But the challenge of facing Georgia’s front is unlike anything they’ve seen this season.
Defensively, Tennessee will need to match physicality in the trenches. Georgia’s ability to establish the run and mix in play action could tilt the field if the Volunteers can’t disrupt the timing. For Tennessee, making Aguilar comfortable and giving him time could determine whether this game stays close into the fourth quarter.
Fans’ attention will be on this game. Recently, Kirk Herbstreit also noted that amid the high-profile programs and Arch Manning’s career arc, Georgia gets sidelined. And this outing will be a great opportunity for them to remind everyone why they’ve been a dominant team in the last 10 years.
