Georgia Football: 3 takeaways from home win against Arkansas

1. Georgia suffocated Arkansas

The Bulldogs let the entire SEC know how they want to play football. Even without starting quarterback J.T. Daniels, Georgia was able to dominate the football game. Georiga’s depth and talent were superior to Arkansas.

Early on, it was apparent that Georgia had a clear and significant talent advantage against Arkansas. That clear talent advantage was why Georgia could be relatively simple and one-dimensional offensively and still dominant offensively.

It is easy to dominate when you have a combination of one of the top five offensive linemen and four running backs (Daijun Edwards had just three carries today) who could pop off a 150-yard game at any time.

The offense used the running game to keep K.J. Jefferson and Arkansas’ offense off the field and out of sync when they were on the field. The Razorbacks committed multiple false start infractions, including two false start penalties to begin drives twice.

The defensive line bottled anything Arkansas tried to do between the tackles and used their speed to bottle up anything to the perimeter. Because Jefferson was so out of sync, that affected the passing game as well.

Without another receiver to take the pressure off of Jaylon Burks, the passing game was helpless against Georiga’s secondary, and Jefferson hardly had time to throw against Georgia’s pass rush.
