They saw Florida missing half their starters on defense and beating a decent SEC team on the road with the healthy side of the ball absolutely dominating.
Georgia stayed because they late covered a spread. Anyone who watched the game saw trouble for Georgia. I mean..you averaged 4.3 YPP and 2.9 yards per rush vs Arkansas. That is bad.
I didn't watch that game, but how much of that was Georgia shooting itself in the foot and how much was it Arkansas really giving them trouble?
Cuz that shooting yourself in the foot thing gets cleaned up and you end up with a final score like we saw. Means Georgia is probably a much better team than people are admitting too.

In the first half it was both. Their line got no push on Arky and they had 11 penalties as well.

Georgia had 73 yards of penalties in a quarter, freshman QB looked lost when the penalties and a couple of miscues took him off his game, and Felipe Franks threw a pretty ball on a busted play for a long TD.
Other than that it was pretty much a standard, boring, Kirby special. Ferocious defense squeezes the life out of an opponent. Offense turned it on when they had to, cleared out the box, and looked much different in second half behind Bennett.
There are legit concerns, but UGA isn't as bad as some folks are hoping.

A bit of both, this Arkansas team doesn't look like the previous two years so far. That could just be 1st game, new head coach energy. Way too early to draw any major conclusions yet.

Eh, they are not as bad as they looked in the 1st half but they still only scored 28 points on offense against a terrible defense last year and got alot of help from the Arkansas offense. Could just be that the Arkansas defense is improved a decent amount though.
