Georgia vs. Missouri score, takeaways: Concerns arise as No. 1 ... (CBSSports.com)

The top-ranked Bulldogs didn't find the end zone until the final 10 minutes of the game.

6 in CBS Sports' 2023 NFL Draft Prospect Rankings and is a force on the interior for the Bulldogs. Missouri's failure to capitalize with more than just three points on those two Georgia turnovers may haunt the Tigers as they review the loss. The Bulldogs received the opening kickoff and promptly went three-and-out as Missouri's Trajan Jeffcoat sacked Bennett on third-and-14. It was UGA's first comeback from a double-digit halftime deficit since the 2018 Rose Bowl, which ended in double overtime. Podlesny and Missouri's Harrison Mevis each went 4 for 4 on field goal tries in the game. The Bulldogs entered as four-touchdown favorites but trailed 13-0 in the second quarter after a sluggish offensive start marked by two fumbles.

Georgia football: The latest injury updates as the Bulldogs prepare ... (247Sports)

COLUMBIA, Mo. — After a closer-than-expected win over a MAC opponent, the Georgia Bulldogs return to SEC play today and will hit the road to do so.

The Bulldogs enter Saturday’s action with multiple players dealing with a wide array of injuries. “Any time you go on the road in the SEC, we talk about it all the time, it's tough to win on the road in the SEC and I have a lot of respect for Eliah [Drinkwitz], the job he's done, what he does offensively and defensively. “They just played a really tough game against Auburn.

On a fourth-and-1 in the fourth quarter, McIntosh gained three yards to set up Milton’s touchdown. The Bulldogs’ three turnovers lost last week matched the highest in any game the last two seasons. "They played really physical, really hard and whipped our butt up front, but I’m proud of the way our guys played," Smart said. "It's hard whenever we got two turnovers in the first three or four drives," Bennett said. He converted from 40, 34, 22 and 29 on the night as Georgia trailed 19-12 with 2:15 to go in the third quarter. "You don't ever want to put it on the ground.

A loss here for Georgia football against an unranked Missouri squad would almost certainly mean that the Tigers will slide down from its No. As for the game itself, Georgia football is surprisingly playing flat, as the Bulldogs scored just six points in the first half. But even before the game started, it already smelled like something was off, with Georgia football star defensive lineman and some of his teammates getting into a little kerfuffle on the field between the two sides that fortunately did not end up becoming a full-blown fight.

Georgia football: 5 useful takeaways from the Week 5 victory (Dawn of the Dawg)

Georgia football got the job done against Missouri, even though it was another sloppy performance. Here are five takeaways from the Dawgs' fifth win.

Who cares that the Dawgs didn’t cover the spread and didn’t blow out Missouri? The Dawgs won the fight and came out bloody but on top. He continues to block at an elite level, and that was one of the biggest things from Saturday. It’s time to figure out the best group and let them grow. [first four games of the season,](https://georgiadogs.com/sports/football/stats/2022) so maybe it was because Missouri blitzed no matter what and didn’t care if a bust happened. Georgia made those adjustments at halftime, and while the Tigers were able to kick long field goals, the Dawgs only gave up one touchdown on the night. Georgia has got to refocus and stop listening to outside noise. The championship-caliber teams are the ones that find ways to win at whatever cost it takes, and Georgia did that on Saturday night. This team had to find a way to win, and Bennett did his part to make that happen. However, the Dawgs had everything to lose, so there was a lot of momentum that Missouri used to its advantage. On the ground, Georgia rushed for 169 yards, and both of its touchdowns came from the rush attack. The Dawgs put up some serious numbers and scored when it mattered.

Georgia needs the running game to come first, and Bennett’s game will come back to him as a result. The talent is too great and the team too well-coached to think things are going to go off the rails. But they need to be able to do this early and consistently to get into a rhythm. And the numbers look fine in the box score – McIntosh with 11 carries for 65 yards, Milton with seven for 63, Daijun Edwards with 11 for 49. In the meantime, you need to be able to find someone else reliable in his place. But he’s not a Bryce Young, CJ Stroud or even Hendon Hooker who you can expect to carry the offense. Yes, I think Georgia is still the best team in the country. If he can become a bigger part of the passing game, that opens things up for Bennett again. Mitchell’s return looks to be more important than ever for the offense. It doesn’t have a heck of a lot of time to get things going again with conference games against Auburn next week and Florida on Oct. Traveling on the road for a night contest against Missouri, the Bulldogs were 31-point favorites but barely escaped Columbia with their undefeated record intact. Look, anything can happen, and perhaps we went overboard on just how good this team looked in its first 3 games.

SI's Top 10: Georgia, Alabama Survive but Show Nobody's Perfect (Wolverine Maven)

On the alleged unbeatable Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide, as the honorable Lee Corso might say, “Not so fast, my friends.”.

QB Hendan Hooker and his Big Orange Show must beat the Tigers to set up what might be the most relevant Alabama-Tennessee game in more than a decade on Oct. The pick didn’t hurt. The Wolverines defense is real, real enough to have allowed more than two touchdowns just once in the first five games. Mike Gundy and the Pokes finally beat some good competition, taking their show on the road and walloping the Bears. While its game against Arkansas turned into a rout (49–26) this was anything but. Ohio State RB Miyan Williams had 189 yards rushing. It was a head-scratching game in which the team of four and five stars found itself out-gunned against a team of mostly two and three stars. Yes, you read that correctly. Still, this felt like a prove it-type day in which the frauds were exposed and the victors were rewarded with a boost of confidence. And what about everyone else? Do we finally have some parity in this ol’ game of ours? In arguably their worst outing in three years, Kirby Smart’s crew slogged to a 26–22 win over Missouri in a game in which it took its first lead with four minutes, three seconds left.

After the Tigers, the next three SEC games are against Alabama, Kentucky and Georgia. That road win should push Oklahoma State ahead of USC and into one spot outside the top five. That's just the reality of things for USC, which has only one way up the rankings: by not losing a game. That the defense stepped up against the Wolfpack is a very positive sign after struggling against Sam Hartman and the Demon Deacons. Recent wins against Wake Forest and North Carolina State have seen the Tigers succeed using two different styles against two very different opponents. Michigan's own running game went for 172 yards behind another strong game from Blake Corum, who topped 100 yards for the second week in a row. 5 Clemson from the ACC, Oklahoma State from the Big 12 and Southern California from the Pac-12. Bryce Young suffered a sprained shoulder and should make a pretty quick recovery, Nick Saban said after the Tide's win against Arkansas. Even more than that, Georgia had been so invincible and unstoppable in September that it would feel premature to dock the Bulldogs for one narrow win. While there may be a few other contenders for No. The Big Ten will have Ohio State, a lock for No. Tennessee will remain in the top 10 and likely move up one spot after a bye week.
