Greg McElroy explains why Georgia should stick with Jake Fromm as the starting QB
The Georgia Bulldogs struggled offensively at LSU on Saturday, falling to the Tigers 36-16.
That has led many to question why backup QB Justin Fields didn’t get more reps, even as starter Jake Fromm failed to move the ball.
However, moving forward, SEC Network analyst Greg McElroy said the Dawgs should stick with Fromm, as he doesn’t think Fields is ready just yet:

The Bulldogs have a week off before a huge rivalry game against Florida, so we’ll see if coach Kirby Smart and OC Jim Chaney can get the offense back on track.
They’ll need to be better against the tough Florida defense. If they struggle again, the SEC East title could slip away from Georgia.
