ATHENS - As expected, the Georgia Bulldogs remain No. 2 in the latest AP poll after the 62-0 win over Vanderbilt.

The Bulldogs ran wild over the Commodores in Nashville, rushing for over 240 yards and five touchdowns. Starting quarterback JT Daniels only played in the first quarter, but he was efficient and gave the Bulldog offense more explosiveness. He ended the game 9/10 for 129 yards and two touchdowns. 

The defense played like the nation’s best and earned their first true shutout of the season. Georgia’s defense and special teams combined to force three total turnovers and helped get the Bulldogs out to a comfortable 35-0 lead after the first quarter. The Bulldogs would cruise to victory in easy fashion for the rest of the ballgame.

This was a dominant win from start to finish. A total team win on offense, defense, and special teams. They looked like a national-championship caliber team and they need to continue playing like that with an impressive Arkansas team coming to town next weekend. When they’re clicking on offense, they can be tough to stop, and the 1st-team unit was certainly clicking on Saturday afternoon. Can you imagine how good this team will be once they’re fully healthy?

Series History & Up Next: With the 62-0 win, Georgia now has a 59-20-2 edge in the series history including 28-12-2 in Nashville. Georgia (4-0, 2-0 SEC) returns to action Saturday at home against Arkansas. Kickoff will be at Noon ET (ESPN).
