Sunday Hangover: Georgia

 Shutting out an offense in the second half was a welcome sight after the debacle that was the Ole Miss game. Georgia's offense, particularly the running game, did too much damage against the Tide in the first half, however. 

Mac Jones continues to shine as a quarterback with his main trio of targets of Smith, Waddle, and Metchie. 

Foristall getting banged up early was a major concern because he is the top TE on the roster currently. He does a lot of motions for distraction and for blocking purposes. 

Najee Harris reminds me of Derrick Henry in that he seems to get stronger as the game goes on. The more you "feed the beast" the better he seems to play. 

As much as I am pleased with the defense possibly turning a corner (one hopes), I'm troubled by the performance in the first half. 

Kudos to the Tide's offensive line for protecting Jones and blocking well in the run game for the most part. 

Next week the Tide takes on a Tennessee squad that was humbled at home versus the Kentucky Wildcats. They should be motivated.
