Revisiting the Rout by No.1 Georgia vs. Tennessee Tech, 48-3

The top-ranked Georgia Bulldogs demolished Tennessee Tech, 48-3, last Saturday afternoon between the hedges in Athens, Georgia. Quarterback Carson Beck tossed five touchdown passes for the top team in the land as the Dawgs cruised towards victory in a game that was never in question. The Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles field goal in the fourth quarter was the program’s first point against a mighty Georgia squad in three meetings between the two schools. In 2009, Georgia defeated Tennessee Tech 38-0, while a 1943 meeting ended in a 67-0 UGA win.

Carson Beck leaves Tennessee Tech with no chance

American musician Beck has a song called “Loser” that debuted on the album Mellow Gold in 1994. More than likely, you’ve heard the alternative rock tune in passing if you are not familiar with the song. Following Saturday’s 5-touchdown performance, Carson Beck is the furthest from the song title despite sharing a name with the accomplished musician. Beck, the quarterback for Georgia, finished the afternoon 18-of-25 for 242 yards. He was not sacked and did not turn the ball over in the contest.

Five different Bulldogs receivers caught touchdown passes against Tennessee Tech. Arian Smith led Georgia in the receiving department with 3 catches for 73 yards and a score. Dillon Bell, Dominic Lovett, Lawson Luckie, and Colbie Young also caught touchdown passes from Carson Beck.

Etienne’s smooth first appearance for UGA

Running back Trevor Etienne, a transfer from the University of Florida, made his first appearance for the Georgia Bulldogs vs. Tennessee Tech. Etienne carried the ball five times averaging 15.6 yards a carry including an electric 45-yard breakaway gallop. Ettienne led the Gators as a sophomore with 11 touchdowns and 68 yards a game despite only one start in eleven games. With an opportunity to roam behind a talented offensive line at Georgia, it will be interesting to see how SEC teams combat that new dynamic option in the UGA offensive attack.

The junior running back should see increased snaps in front of Nate Frazier for Kirby Smart’s squad. Nate Frazier led Georgia once again with 6 total carries on the afternoon gaining 28 yards with a 4.7 average per play.

Elite Defense in Georgia vs. Tennessee Tech

The Georgia Bulldogs defense displayed why they are considered one of the top units in college football. Yes – Georgia played a Tennessee Tech squad that the school paid $550,000 to come to play in Athens, Georgia. The Bulldogs heavily outmatched the Golden Eagles. Sometimes those games don’t always go to plan. Just ask previously No. 5 ranked Notre Dame losing a “pay me” game to Northern Illinois this past weekend.

Defensive Coordinator Glenn Schumann’s squad forced 8 punts by Spencer Ashby. The defense caused two fumbles in the game but managed to only recover one of the loose footballs. Tennessee Tech rushed for a total of 157 yards on 40 carries and only dared to throw the ball 8 times on the day. Tech’s quarterback Jordyn Potts completed 5–of-8 passing for 18 yards and was sacked three times by the Bulldogs defensive unit.
