3. Georgia Bulldogs

Georgia has knocked off Notre Dame who was No. 24 at the time, and now are setting at No. 5, so that is a huge feather in the Bulldogs’ cap. On Saturday, they knocked off Florida 42-7 and pretty much put the nail in the coffin for Jim McElwain who was fired on Sunday.

Like Wisconsin, Georgia doesn’t display much of a passing game, but they have a serious rushing attack. The Bulldogs rushed for 292 yards on a total of 35 carries and four touchdowns for an 8.3 yards per carry clip against Florida.

Sony Michel had six rushes for 137 yards and two touchdowns on an unreal 22.8 yards per carry average — yes, that is over two first downs per carry. Nick Chubb had 13 carries for 77 yards and one touchdown for a 5.9 yards per carry average. Elijah Holyfield (the son of the great boxer Evander Holyfield) had 49 yards and a touchdown as well.

Georgia held Florida to 269 total yards and only 66 of those yards were through the air. They had five sacks and an interception — it was a total domination of the Gators.
