Earlier this week I asked, somewhat sarcastically, whether playing Georgia Southern was such a good idea. For most of the night it looked like the answer was a resounding "no."
Georgia Southern gave the Bulldogs all they could handle before finally giving way late, with the Red and Black triumphing 23-17.
"Triumph" may be too strong a word, actually. "Survive" is more appropriate. "Shuffle onward" would work. It was not a good night for Georgia. The odds were good that it was never going to be a good night. For those with an interest in advanced statistical analysis, an argument could be made that this game was essentially a push.
