PLAYERS TO WATCH
–QB Jake Fromm endured all sorts of slings and arrows for his subpar performance against LSU, but then he turned in one of his best, completing 17 of 24 passes for 240 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Bulldogs over Florida. For his effort, Fromm was named the SEC co-Offensive Player of the Week.
–RB D’Andre Swift finally appears to be healthy after battling groin injuries and comes into the game against Kentucky fresh off his first-career 100-yard game. Swift gained 104 yards on the afternoon, salting the game away with a 33-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
–WR Jeremiah Holloman continues to make an impact. The sophomore now has 15 receptions for 283 yards and four touchdowns, two coming in the win over the Gators.
–DT Jordan Davis made his first career start against Florida and, so far, has been a fortifying factor with the defensive line.
SERIES HISTORY: Georgia leads the series with Kentucky 57-12-12.
QUOTE TO NOTE: “Obviously there’s a lot is at stake. I think our kids and players understand that. I got a lot of respect for Mark (Stoops) and the job he’s done. I think it’s really remarkable, and it shows the patience of an athletic department to stick with a guy who I think is one of the best coaches in all of college football. He’s now put his roster together. He’s got a senior class that’s really incredible across the SEC.” — Kirby Smart, on Saturday’s game with Kentucky which will be for the SEC East crown.
