They got gashed all first half, unable to stop Ole Miss’s potent rushing attack. Kentucky’s defense was a tale of two halves. It was a sloppy game all around for Kentucky, clearly. Following the penalty that wiped the possible game-winning TD off the board, Will Levis got strip sacked by Jared Ivy, effectively ending this game. If you’re doing the math at home, that’s 12 points off the board right there. A touchdown pass to take the lead with less than a minute left that gets called back for illegal motion? Most painfully for Kentucky, yes. Intentional grounding in the end zone for a safety? You bet. FIVE times.ģ9-yard missed field goal? Check. All of this happened to Kentucky on Saturday, not once, not twice, not three times, not even four. And then there’s mistakes that give the other team points. Mistakes that take points off the board are much worse.

Bennett was sacked twice on 10 pressures, and it felt like he was constantly running for his life outside of the pocket.ĭefensively, there were some gash plays, but overall, not too concerning. The offensive line did Bennett no favors here either. On the ground, Georgia is efficient, but similar to their passing game, its most explosive plays continue to come from Brock Bowers. Stetson Bennett failed to throw for a touchdown in consecutive weeks, and overall, the passing game looks like Brock Bowers and a bunch of receivers who can’t get open. Missouri gave Georgia quite the scare, and right now, Georgia’s offense is entering a figure-it-out process because it just isn’t clicking on that side of the ball. Things aren’t pretty in Athens right now, but they remain unbeaten after five weeks.
