An up and down regular season for the Bulldogs, ended Saturday with a loss to arch-rival Georgia Tech.

The Bulldogs probably should have won this game, but the Yellow Jackets were the better team on Saturday, and Kirby Smart’s first season as head coach of the bulldogs will continue with a bowl game, but the first season has not been that of what many would call successful. Sure, the Bulldogs are young, and they will have to improve in 2017, but there it too much talent at Georgia to be 7-5 on the season. A better and more mature Jacob Eason at quarterback, certainly helps when looking at the future of the Bulldog program.

Smart will be expected to compete for the SEC East division next year, as well as produce a much better defense.
