Georgia football is off to another slow start in Week 3. The Bulldogs are finally facing a Power Five opponent.
South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler is off to a hot start against the Georgia defense.
Buy Bulldogs TicketsIn contrast, Georgia’s offense has struggled in the red zone against South Carolina. The Bulldogs have moved the ball alright, but have been unable to capitalize with a first half touchdown.
Georgia has very high expectations after winning back-to-back national championships. Bulldog fans may not be as patient as they used to be.
Here’s how Georgia fans and media members reacted to Georgia’s slow start against South Carolina:
UGA is in a hole

South Carolina was the last team to beat UGA in Athens
Shades of 2019 in Athens right now

UGA getting challenged
Am I the only one excited to finally see a challenge for the Dawgs?
Let’s see how these young Dawgs respond to some actual adversity.
Let’s find out if Beck has ice in his veins.
Let’s see what leaders step up on both sides of the ball.

South Carolina down key receiver
Shane Beamer told CBS WR Juice Wells may have a broken bone in his foot, the same foot that's been surgically repaired with a screw in it recently.
Said he doubts he'll be back today.

Georgia missing some open receivers
Rosemy was WIDE open. Dillon Bell earlier too.

UGA not sharp
1st and goal from the 10: Handoff to Milton for a loss
2nd and goal from the 13: Incomplete for Bowers. No PI?
3rd and goal from the 13: False start. Ugh
3rd and goal from the 18: Lovett for a few
Georgia will kick a field goal.

Georgia is just trying to win at this point
I wonder how many games it's going to take for some of you to see that Georgia isn't the nation's best team.
They may very well get there, but they have not been so far this season.
The #1 ranking has not been earned.
