Experience a factor in Georgia’s improved run defense

Related Topics: Georgia

Georgia’s veteran experience is paying off when it comes to defending the run.

The Bulldogs brought back every major contributor in the front seven from last year’s team. Players are familiar with one another and can place trust that each assignment will be taken care of. That’s at least what outside linebacker Davin Bellamy believes when it comes to why Georgia has been able to defend the run at such a high level.

Through four games, Georgia ranks tied for third in the SEC in run defense at 97.5 rushing yards per game. This number is also tied for 18th nationally.
