ESPN College Football analysts David Pollack and Ryan Clark were on ESPN’s “Get Up” this morning to talk about Saturday’s showdown between Tennessee and Georgia.
For Pollack, Tennessee success revolves around quarterback Hendon Hooker.
“He’s 25 years old, he’s older than 10 starting quarterbacks in the NFL,” Pollack said. “Very very mature…second year in the system…this guy knows exactly where his answers are. They play so fast, so electric, so dynamic…deep shots galore. They start fast and play fast the whole game.”
Clark countered with thoughts about how Georgia’s defense can slow down Tennessee’s attack and get them off rhythm.
“This Georgia defense is full of pros and the one thing you have to stop when you play against Hendon Hooker and Tennessee is the deep ball,” Clark said. “Georgia is going to have understand about getting pressure, keeping him in the pocket and stopping the big play.”
No. 1 Tennessee and No. 3 Georgia will play Saturday at Sanford Stadium. The game is scheduled for a 3:30 p.m. kickoff on CBS.
