ATHENS - Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldog defense shut down the Clemson Tigers in their 2024 season opener. 

Led by an elite defense, the Dawgs held the Tigers to just three points in their dominant 34-3 win. Georgia’s linebackers played outstanding, and the play of sophomore Raylen Wilson is a big reason why.

He spoke with reporters this week about his play against Clemson, the defense, defensive development, and the overall defense mentality heading into week two...

On the defensive performance against Clemson…

“We learned where we were at as a defensive unit as a whole. We all felt like we played pretty good holding them to three points, a field goal. You can’t get too much better than that, unless it's a goose egg.”

On his performance against Clemson…

“I know it wasn’t my best game, but I feel like it was a good start to the season for the plays that came to me that I made. So, I feel like it was a decent start.”

On the development players have at Georgia…

“Me personally, I know it’s more about the development for me. Playing earlier is just like a plus. My main reason for coming here was to get developed, and that’s what we do every day. So, I feel like it’s pretty easy if your head is on right and you want to get developed and you want to get better every day.”

On the mentality of the team going into Tennessee Tech…

“It’s really the same vibe every week. We’re going in there to beat somebody for four quarters. We don’t really look at the team we’re playing, It’s really about us being better than we were last week.”
