Obviously UGA still has more games to play but with the regular season in the books, here's a look at UGA's scoring defense:
2019: No. 1 (nationally), 12.6 points per game
2020: No. 16, 20.0 ppg
2021: No. 1, 10.2 ppg
2022: No. 1, 11.3 ppg

Luther Burden had two receptions for 46 yards and a touchdown on the opening drive of the game.
He had just one catch for 7 yards the rest of the way(and a two-point conversion).
That was probably the best game of Kamari Lassiter's career. What a showing from the junior

I thought this was one of the most profound answers we've ever gotten from a UGA player.
I appreciate Marcus for taking the time to explain it and hope we can all learn a thing or two from him.
"I learned that it's not hard to get up."
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint's favorite Georgia memory might also be his most painful.

My favorite Brock Bowers stat: His final catch in both his freshman and sophomore seasons went for a touchdown in the national championship game.
Just another unreal performance from maybe the best player in college football in 2023:

Not AJ Green. Not Hines Ward. Not Terrence Edwards.
And his national championship performance shows why “his future is limitless”

Amarius Mims, who is now 6-8 and 335 pounds, on why this UGA offensive line has the potential to be special.

Georgia could very well have the best offensive line in the country this season.

Nakobe Dean probably isn’t going to go in the first round it’s infuriating.
He was easily -easily- the best player on UGA’s 2021 defense, which most consider the best defense of at least the past decade.
The next stop for Nakobe Dean is the NFL. Georgia's ultimate achiever has understood the assignment at every step of his career climb.
Looking back at his time from HS ball to UGA, he has clearly been a most likely to succeed player.
