DAWGTIME’s Halftime Tidbits (vs. Kentucky)

Kentucky 14, GEORGIA 13

PREGAME

The line closed with Georgia being a 2½-point favorite, marking the 51^st time in a row the Dogs have been favored over the ‘Cats. The last time Kentucky was favored over Georgia was in 1965.

Notably, for the first time this season, Georgia’s offensive coordinator, Jim Chaney, is situated in the booth rather than on the sidelines.

OFFENSE

After scoring a touchdown for Georgia, receiver Isaiah McKenzie essentially cost his team 11 points by running backwards after a reception costing the Bulldogs a first down, and fumbling a punt in which Kentucky wound up scoring a touchdown as a result of.

DEFENSE/ SPECIAL TEAMS

After averaging 568 total yards against Mississippi State and Missouri, Kentucky has been held to 175 total yards by Georgia in the first half.

After the Bulldogs made just 3 of their first 8 field goal attempts this season, they have now made their last seven field-goal attempts in a row—all attempted and made by Rodrigo Blankenship.
