The Dawgs Daily staff empties the notebook on the first half of play from Georgia versus Kentucky. 

  • Kentucky starting out with 12 personnel which Georgia counters in a base 3-4 
  • Kentucky is snapping the ball quickly, trying to counter Georgia's shifting pre-snap.
  • Kentucky is getting to the edge in the run game early.
  • An illegal formation penalty put the Wildcats behind the sticks and later found them unable to recover. 
  • Georgia opened with a run for a loss, then came back with a play-action pass to Darnell Washington.
  • Interesting tidbit, Georgia showed off some 13 ( 1 running back, 3 tight ends) personnel in that drive. 
  • Monken continuing to keep his opponents on their toes 
  • Kentucky running a lot of 12 personnel in the second drive as well
  • Bennett shakes off the stinger with a touchdown pass to James Cook
  • Kentucky running a lot of soft coverage, trying to keep everything in front of them 
  • After a slow start, Stetson is finding a rhythm 
  • Kendall Milton finds some space on an outside run that breaks 35-yards. 
  • Milton's run is one of the longest in 2021 so far for Georgia
  • Bennett keeps on a read-option and breaking it for 17, keeping Kentucky honest. 
  • In the succeeding plays, Cook runs for 10 up the middle, then Zamir White caps it off with a 24-yard rushing touchdown
  • Georgia offensive line dominated up front that possession after being limited in the run during the first quarter

  • Georgia leads Kentucky 14-7 at the half
