Georgia football maintains top spot in AP Poll Top 25 rankings for Week 5
Georgia football didn’t deliver its finest performance on Saturday, slogging its way to a 39-22 over Kent State on Saturday. It was the first time the Bulldogs were really pushed in a game all season.

Three SEC - East teams and one West team in the AP Top-10. How long has it been since that's been said?
I thought maybe Bama would overtake the Dawgs in polling this time...guess not. Bama played nobody..so figure AP will give UGA another week. My sincere opinion is if the KS game had gone on longer, UGA would have started piling on the points. End of 4th quarter saw a Dawg resurgence.
Honestly, I do not believe Mizzou is as good as KS. They looked pathetic against Auburn.
I almost wish we had dropped behind Bama to underscore the lessons to be learned from Saturday. But I have confidence the coaches will get things right come practice.
And how long since we've been able to say this without one of the East teams being Florida? My guess is this is a first, when the Fla. aspect is factored in.
I LOVE Our Dawgs !! BUT the Kent St. should and certainly hope so, serve as a very powerful antidote to Rat Poison !!! Our Dawgs have Allot of work to do to continue their quest for another Natty !! So I hope they will let the sloppy play serve as a warning, Learn from it, put that game in the books, and Work, Work, Work !! Go Dawgs !!
So glad the dawgs retained the top spot in both the AP and Coaches Polls. Now, it's time to put the sloppy play behind them and get after the rest of the SEC. As Kirby said, this will serve as a GROWTH time for the dawgs as they work hard this week to correct some things holding them back. I am glad that Kirby said that he is proud of his players for pushing through the rough game yesterday - he was looking for adversity and the dawgs got all they wanted from Kent State in all three phases of the game - this will be a turning point for Georgia as they focus on the SEC games ahead of them and there will be a marked change in the way they get after their opponents from this time forward, I feel. I hate it for Missouri - a little. LOL. GO DAWGS!
Great to see reality laced with positivity...but I was kind of hoping the Dawgs would drop a spot or two. Like most young men their age they can't handle too much back-slapping. And with social media the way it is, you might as well be trying to put out fire with gasoline. Anyway, at least the "wake-up" game wasn't by way of a loss. Hopefully EVERYBODY can refocus.
