That’s a wild stat and makes sense when you think about it in retrospect.

There was a noticeable drop off during those years when a starter went down because they lacked quality depth, and on multiple occasions each season more athletic DLs could control a game.

This is becoming less of a problem now. Having guys like Mays, Hill and Salyer on the roster is a big reason why UGA was in contention for a championship late last year despite several injuries across the line.
