A recovering QE had 3 first half turnovers.

Georgia's 1st half scoring drives in October:

Started @ TX 13 yd line, 13 yds, TD
Started @ TX 28 yd line, 7 yds, FG
Started @ TX 34 yd line, 34 yds, TD
Started @ GA 45 yd line, 25 yds, FG
Started @ TX 30 yd line, 4 yds, FG

5 Georgia scoring "drives" starting at the Texas 32 yd line, gained an average of 17 yds, and scored 2 TD & 3 FG.

QE threw, and ran, a lot better last week. Should be a good game Saturday.

Started @ TX 28 yd line, 7 yds, FG (ESPN says 13 yards)
Started @ TX 34 yd line, 34 yds, TD
Started @ GA 45 yd line, 25 yds, FG
Started @ TX 30 yd line, 4 yds, FG (also the end of the half, UGA didn't have time for a long drive)


Added some context above.

In the second half UGA had an 89 yard TD drive

And one of the two TD drives Texas had was 9 yards after a UGA interception.

UGA had 3 turnovers in that game. Texas had 4. While you're right that Texas didnt' play well on offense, UGA played equally as bad. It seems your expectation is that your offense will do better but UGA's will not. That's not something you should count on.

Agree with all this.

And it should be said, when you run into an end-zone, you run out of room to keep moving the ball.

The location of the end-zone doesn’t dictate whether or not it was a “good” drive from a yardage perspective

After Texas had momentarily seized momentum. That drive is one of the best, if not the best, UGA had all season....and is, given past experience with Kirby Smart teams and meaningful games, liable to be more of the norm Saturday than not. Discounting Kirby Smart teams in big games is a baaadddddd idea....

To be fair, they’re running the ball more consistently and we all of a sudden can’t stop the run. I still think Beck plays better this time around and we’ll be fine.

Broh! These Tejas fans and supporters are a blight as known on humanity!

They are Tenfold the paradox of nihilism when it comes down to rationale.

They shame Buckheadfrickheads...

frick this rabble and their Obama statues as well and they all have one!

I hope Uga the most beloved mascot in the history of college football runs over and bites their sissy coach in the arse!

God will be on UGA's side in this battle and the players from Burnt Orange trash who worship Ball will suffer accordingly!

Dawgs 42-12...

And that is that.
