Georgia ran for 295 against Ole Miss. Missouri whiffed on nine tackles vs Texas and graded out at a 56.6 in run defense, its second worst mark all year. Bulldogs backs should eat.
Georgia's dominance goes past the scoreboard. Through Week 10:
1st in Net Drive Yards per Play
1st in Net Drive Success Rate
4th in Net Points per Drive
5th in Net Available Yards Gained

Georgia is starting to look like one of Kirby's title teams in the numbers. It isn't one stat doing the work. Every major efficiency category is trending the right way at once, and that's how you know it's real.
Early downs could be where Georgia wins this one against Missouri. The Dawgs are 4th in the country at a 69.5% success rate on offense, and Missouri's defense, ranked 20th, allows 46.1%.
31 sacks in nine games is 3.44 a game. That's more than double last year's pace and already .17 a game better than 2021. This pass rush is eating quarterbacks alive.
Georgia has the edge on both sides of the ball. No. 5 scoring offense, No. 7 scoring defense, and No. 1 in net drive yards per play and net drive success rate. Dawgs win 31-15.
Georgia leads the SEC in every major net EPA category, and it's not close to being a debate.
• Net EPA: #1 (0.31)
• Net Rushing EPA: #1 (0.38)
• Net Passing EPA: #1 (0.39)
Best all-around TEAM in this league.
Georgia leads the SEC in every major Net EPA category. Overall 0.31, rushing 0.38, passing 0.39. No other offense in this conference does it all like the Dawgs.
Georgia's run D gives up 83.78 yards a game. Missouri's run game puts up 158.22 a game. Something's gotta give, and Mizzou won't sniff 100. What's the number the Dawgs hold them to Saturday?
Folks are actually cheering for a 24-team playoff. Explain that to me.
Sure, the games will still be fun. But will they all matter? Nope. Not even close.
Georgia keeps getting better on passing downs. Success rate went from 36.5% to 38.2% after Ole Miss, moving the Dawgs from 20th to 13th nationally.
And that's with the second best overall success rate in the country.
ESPN pockets $140 million to kill conference championship games, then gets the 24-team playoff all to itself for 5 years. College football loses one of its best weekends and the network gets paid to take it away. Unreal.
