Georgia QB Carson Beck passes Auburn road test, overcomes double-digit deficit
AUBURN, Ala. — Georgia quarterback Carson Beck was staring adversity in the face amid deafening noise, a national television looking on as he fell behind 10-0.

Great work Carson, my advice...start earlier. KY will try you far more than Auburn. KY will be your toughest opponent yet. Hope you are able to rally the win.
Shocked how bad the defense was today.
It would be so nice to see Georgia play 4 quarters of football and not sleep for the first half or 3 quarters.
While it was an u g l y (not sure why that word is banned) game, one positive for sure is the fact this team (Beck in particular) faced down adversity in a hostile environment and made the crucial plays when it counted. Now moving forward, use that as confidence and build on it. This team still hasn’t had a great game, but I’m hoping this will give them some confidence moving forward.
When the "grades" come out Monday....The TEAM gets an A+ for over coming adversity on the road....it was obvious we did not plan on a defense to contain a "back yard" QB that runs the ball.....why did we not have a "spy" on every play???
@MikeGriffith Mike this was an Excellent article !! And it really puts things in perspective on Beck. I Know, I Know that the Dawgs have Allot of work to do in Allot of areas.
But on Beck I encourage my fellow Dawgs fans to Really Read this article don’t just speed through it. For Any Dawgs fan that’s been around a pretty good while, playing at Jordan Hare Stadium is Always daunting !! Even if Auburn is having a less than stellar season in any particular year, you can Never assume that a W is just an Automatic Given there. Your gonna have to Earn it !!
Their fanbase was Extremely loud and raucous today !! Hoping to knock off the number one team in the land. Some of Beck’s supporting cast let him down today. Though guys like Brock Bowers, Rosemy-JackSaint, McConkey gave him a boost. But as for solely on Beck, all told he did very, very well !!
Now to take on a upsurging Kentucky team !! But at least that will be in the friendly spaces between the hedges !! Go Dawgs !!
The defense played better than the score indicated. The 2 turnovers that gave Auburn 2 short field touchdowns really hurt. UGA'S defensive stop late in the 1st half in the red zone was huge. Kirby said the long QB runs were his and coaches fault not the players. Is this defense as good as the past 2 years? Probably not, but I saw effort and no quit, like when Bullard didn't give up on long Auburn QB run and chased him down.
Exact same question I was telling my wife as the game went on. Got burned Way to many times by Both QBs running the ball. I was more disappointed with our Defense than our O today. BUT at least they showed up when it counted. So I’m easy to forgive Em.
All in all, I thought Beck did Very Well !! Their crowd was Hostile !! And our turn overs only fed their fire !! So Beck and Many of our Dawgs rose up and met the challenge. Some though not so much. Go Dawgs !!
Color me completely s t u p I d Lol !! I thought Bullard was still out. But in fairness to me ( long story) I had My Own medical situation right before the game and pretty much all the first half. I have the game recorded, I’ll watch it again probably tomorrow.
I made a comment on here on another thread about When We Get Bullard Back !! That’s Why I said color me as a Dufus Lol !! Glad he’s back and able to pursue like that !! But I sure hope he can spark the Defense to a better performance vs Kentucky !!
Man, that was hard to watch but the article puts things into perspective. We would all love the offense to be as deadly as had been thought (particularly the O line), but they are still figuring things out. Would love to see the O line get consistent push but I just don’t think that will happen. Best part of this article is the fact Beck, and Bobo, don’t have those elite defenses of the last 2 seasons available to bail out any mistakes.
This is going to be a crazy season, especially starting next week with Kentucky. They looked like a complete team today and had a great running game against a Florida defense that has been pretty stout against the run this season.
In addition to Bowers (who is unbelievable), you have to love Edwards. Man, he is a true workhorse with very little relief to take the load off him. He just keeps churning and picked up crucial yards when needed. Go DAWGS
Griffith, I know you have to **** up to the powers that be but Beck is a diaster with Bobo as an OC. Beck needs to have his depth perception checked. When is that idiot going to learn that this team CANNOT run the ball up the middle. They couldn't against Ball State or UAB or SC or UT Martin. Why waste 15 to 20 plays a game. This is now the 3rd game where the D cannot protect the edge. We miss Tresman Marshall a lot more than most people thought. This team should be an underdog to the visiting 'Cats
They won't be a #1 ranked team on Monday. This Auburn team barely beat Cal and was destroyed by Texas A&M. I am so tired of Bobo's teams playing down to competition. The bookies had it right a 44 point over and under. With the right OC and QB, the Dogs would have scored 44. The way this team is playing I sure hope we can keep Raiola in the fold.
Post game HOT HOT HOT Take...
We will be fine. This team is different but the same..
