Dawgs flip the script as flawless offense dominates Oregon
Saturday’s neutral-site win for the Dawgs was a mirror image of last year’s opener.

Wow! Loving these pics. The one with DW jumping over a defender with the Oregon sideline looking in wonderment is amazing. Go Dawgs!!!
Win or lose, excel or flop... you can always count on a great assessment from Bill King. In particular, I think he hit the nail on the head about Bo Nix: he wasn't awful so much as "didn't impress" against a ferocious defense. This gives me hope that the game was not a fluke, and we'll see excellent performance against Top SEC squads as well.
Importantly, King is the first that I saw comment on a small item in the game that it seems many overlooked: that punter Thorson has a CANNON for a leg! When we get up against the very top SEC teams (and possibly others in the CFP, as well, presuming UGA makes it), that is likely going to make a big difference when the chips are down.
Thanks for the great analysis, Bill! 👍
I noticed this too and was visibly irritated when none of my buddies did. Far too many Dawg fans fail to appreciate the fact that we routinely have top 10 (if not closer to top 5) in the NCAA kickers and punters. We are spoiled in that regard and it really helps with field position/our offense not getting to greedy. Kid hit a moon bomb on the punt. Love to see it.
Good analysis, and like others have noted, the pictures, including the one by Olivia (I'm somewhere in the upper level crowd in the corner of the Georgia end zone!) are great and helped tell the story.
