If Georgia goes to lose a recreation this season, they higher be introduced a more durable problem than what Oregon introduced on Saturday afternoon. It wasn’t as if Kirby Sensible was working up the rating on his buddy Dan Lanning, however the ultimate rating of 49-3 ought to be a sign that Stetson Bennett and Georgia are looking for one other championship.

In case you had been questioning if Georgia had fallen off in any approach, the primary recreation of the season proved this wasn’t the case. Stetson Bennett threw for 368 yards on 25-31 passing, with 3 whole touchdowns, whereas the Bulldogs scored on six-straight possessions with Bennett on the helm.

Oregon hadn’t made a subject purpose of fifty yards plus since 2008 and so they weren’t going to attempt one because the clock ticked off on the primary half, trailing 28-3. Bo Nix’ longest throw of the night time by means of three quarters was 9 yards, however he did have a 33-yard punt, in order that’s a constructive for the Geese, although there weren’t many. Oregon didn’t rating a landing for the primary time since November 4th, 2017.

You couldn’t have written a greater script for Georgia and Kirby Sensible to get 2022 rolling. The Geese appeared out-manned all the recreation, struggling to get into place or stopping Ladd McConkey from shopping for actual property in the long run zone, till Stetson Bennett lastly discovered him for the landing. Everyone seems to be gunning for you whenever you’re the defending champs, however the Bulldogs aren’t giving up the crown anytime quickly.

Sure, you can also make the argument that Oregon simply wasn’t good. However, one might additionally say that the Bulldogs are simply that a lot better. In a stadium crammed to the brim with followers sporting pink and black, Georgia made Oregon seem like a Pac-12 group struggling to search out depth. It’s been rumored that Oregon is likely to be the following group to defect to the Huge Ten, however the convention would possibly rethink after seeing the Geese lay an egg on Saturday.

Oregon QB Bo Nix completed the primary half with 142 yards and a pair of interceptions, not getting a lot assist from his speeding assault.

If you lose a speeding assault consisting of Zamir White and James Cook dinner, as Georgia did this previous offseason, most assumed the group would take a step backwards within the run recreation. However, don’t inform Kenny McIntosh and Kendal Milton, who each appeared harmful on Saturday whereas working behind the large Bulldogs’ offensive line.

When you had attended the sport Saturday and didn’t beforehand comply with both group intently, the ‘Brock’ chants might’ve been for somebody like WWE Famous person Brock Lesnar. However to Georgia followers, that’s simply Brock Bowers. The stud tight finish had assist from Darnell Washington, as they towered over their quarterback on the sideline and appeared unstoppable working the soccer after a catch.

I witnessed first hand the leap that Washington made alongside the sidelines, which appeared like somebody collaborating within the hurdles at an Olympic occasion.

I had just a few questions coming into this recreation, most significantly concerning the Georgia protection. However after watching them dominate Bo Nix and this Oregon offense, I’ll want one other recreation to make a full evaluation. Don’t get me mistaken, they’re good, however the Geese had been caught attempting to throw 10-yard routes all the recreation.

Most thought Georgia would deal with the Geese, however this was a shellacking, as Georgia took the 42-3 lead on the 5:20 mark of the third quarter, due to a dime from Stetson Bennett to Adonai Mitchell.

So, the place does Georgia go from right here, as they give the impression of being to make one other run at a nationwide championship? May the primary take a look at of the season come towards South Carolina in two weeks? It’s potential, however Spencer Rattler should discover time to throw the ball and the Gamecocks protection might want to discover a option to cease what appears to be a greater Georgia offense than 2021.

As Marcus Mariota appeared on from the stands, sporting his Oregon gear, all he might do was chuckle when the Bulldogs added one other landing. This isn’t the identical sort of Oregon group that he led and Kirby Sensible made positive his group didn’t take their foot off the throat o the Geese late within the recreation.

The Bulldogs will play two away video games over the following 4 weeks, at South Carolina and Missouri. In the event that they play like they did on Saturday afternoon towards Oregon, I don’t see a possible problem on the schedule till late October into November, when the Dawgs play Florida and Tennessee in back-to-back weeks.

Now we wait to see if Georgia slips up in SEC play, however for those who’re an upcoming opponent of the Bulldogs, I’d most definitely be fearful about what’s forward.
