Outside of a couple of upset scares, Week 3 in the SEC left plenty to be desired. After two incredible weeks of college football, Saturday gave fans a chance to catch their breaths.
Texas A&M won the headliner of the weekend, beating Miami, 17-9. Meanwhile, Florida barely escaped against South Florida, and Arkansas had a very tough time against Missouri State.
Most importantly is what the Georgia Bulldogs did to the South Carolina Gamecocks. With a final score of 48-7 in Columbia, the Dawgs look ready to repeat as national champions in 2022.
