Per ESPN: ATHENS, Ga. -- — Trevor Etienne ran for two touchdowns as No. 5 Georgia bounced back from its first regular-season loss in almost four years with a workmanlike 31-13 victory over struggling Auburn on Saturday.
The Bulldogs (4-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) made it eight straight wins in the Deep South's oldest rivalry, but it was more of a struggle than expected for the team that began the season ranked No. 1 and favored to win its third national championship in four years.
That goal is still within reach, but Georgia didn't wrack up a lot of style points against the offensively challenged Tigers (2-4, 0-3), who have dropped six consecutive games against Power Four opponents.
