Georgia Has a Crucial Opportunity Against the Auburn Tigers

Why Georgia’s matchup against the Auburn Tigers has become highly important.

Georgia is coming off of a heart breaking loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide this past weekend, but there is no time to continue to mourn as the Bulldogs have to get ready for their game against Auburn now. This will be the first home game for the Dawgs since week two against Tennessee Tech and while Auburn has had their fair share of struggles this season, this weekend’s game has turned into an important one for Georgia.

Any positives that came out of Georgia’s game against Alabama happened during the second half of the game. The Bulldogs’ offense turned the heat up, started forcing the ball downfield and successfully marched down the field multiple times to eventually take a lead in the ball game. The defense also stepped up time and time again to allow Georgia to fight back into the game and it looked as if Georgia might have found something in themselves.

Georgia’s opportunity though this next week is centralized on the offensive side of the ball. The offense had some struggles against Kentucky and those struggles trickled over in the first half of the Alabama game, but an identity might have been found for Georgia. When Georgia was forced to push the ball downfield, offensive coordinator Mike Bobo drew up shot after shot, and quarterback Carson Beck and the offense appeared to have found a rhythm.

The game against Auburn has now turned into an opportunity for Georgia to find confirmation in what their offense was able to do against Alabama. With games like Texas, Ole Miss and Tennessee still left on the schedule, Georgia picking up any momentum they can down the stretch will be crucial, and the Auburn game will be a great opportunity for that to happen.
