And so it begins – The quest for Georgia football to win their third-straight national championship. This year, they won’t have two-time national championship quarterback, Stetson Bennett, behind center. They do however return head coach, Kirby Smart. Smart spent eight seasons as an assistant on Nick Saban’s staff at Alabama, and no one can argue that it’s paying massive dividends.
On defense, the Bulldogs are led by returning starters in the secondary Malaki Starks, Javon Bullard and Kamari Lassiter. The Bulldogs gave up only 12.8 points per game last season, good for second in the country.
