Final Grades from Georgia football win over South Carolina
ATHENS — Based on the first 30 minutes, it seemed it would be a long day for the Georgia Bulldogs. The defense gave up two touchdowns, the offense was floundering in the red zone and Georgia’s special teams made some critical mistakes.
Comments
Shout out for Tykee Smith -- seems to be getting better. He, and Lassiter were tackling people hard right around the line of scrimmage.
A's and B's for everyone but the offensive line. C'Mon we are not watching the same game. I'm thinking C's across the board except for special teams which should be an F.
I do think the more Beck gets comfortable back in the pocket, the more he will air it out (instead of these swing passes). He just needs more game experience, and right now I'd rather him dunk it off on a short pass to a RB or TE than risk tossing it downhill and getting intercepted. I will note there were a couple of good, accurate long passes that were dropped or broken up.
Better find a reliable kicker.
I agree with most of the grades, but I think Beck should have gotten a “B”. He hit 77% of his passes, averaged 10 yards per completion with no interceptions. I realize he had no TDs, but it appears he was very efficient and carried out the coach’s game plan. I’m sure we will see more intermediate and deep passes as the season progresses. Go Dawgs!!!
Tykee Smith could have had two interceptions, including the one Dan intercepted. The secondary is the best unit but the rain and dropped passes helped also. Proud of my Dawgs. A win is a win but everyone has to get better. Ole Miss worries me a lot. Take it one practice then one game at a time. Go Dawgs!!
Because Beck didn't try to be Josh Allen and force the ball down field, he gets a "C+". You can't be serious. I think the Bills wish Allen would take some check downs.
QB=B
Defensive Backs=A
Defensive line=B+ (Caveat: set your "wake-up" alarm to the 1st qtr)
I am a bit more lenient after that rousing second half.
Beck is a work in progress and I see progress every week.....Hey, would any Dawg fan trade for #2 Big Blue QB who had 3 int's against a glorified HS team or how bout any of the Bama QB fruit basket??? Yep, Rattler looked Heisman in the first quarter but finished around 50% and 2 int's. Frankly, on a day that saw very poor QB play nation wide, Beck continued to be the winner, and I would trade Carson with a turf toe and hemorrhoids for any other QB in America!
Special teams with 2 chip shot misses and a kickoff out of bounds deserves a F. In the second half, they woke up. Hopefully, they will stay out of dreamland the rest of the season. I'm hoping that this was our Missouri game of last year and that we have waked up.
I understand the comparisons to last year's Missouri game. But this one actually wasn't nearly that bad.
That one went down to like the last two minutes, compared to this one where the Dawgs dominated the entire second half.
Maybe not with turf toe and hemorroids...but I'm with you. Beck was one of the things to be excited about. He is coming along very well imo. I think we are in good hands.
Another warm up game and then Auburn. I do think the offensive line got better push when Mims got hurt and Fairchild came in. Maybe the best 5 that play together not necessarily the best 5 individually...something to think about.
Defense looked good in the 2nd half.
Excited about what Bell can do as a running back with 10 carries a game.
Not sure we saw the same game. Thought Beck looked pretty good and has been improving. Couple dropped passes amd a few bad passes, but better than most the others I have been watching. Oline was rough once again, but came through a handful of times when needed.
Everette and Daninel-Sisavah have a lot of growth to do. Struggled getting off blocks and often just looked lost. Hopefully film will help. Jackson coming in tightened up the backside defense.
Did I see the wrong game? Our secondary got their butts kicked.
