The Georgia Bulldogs are 3-0 on the season after demolishing Arkansas 45-17 in their SEC opener. Georgia ran the ball at will, collecting 254 rushing yards and 4 rushing touchdowns. By comparison, Arkansas finished with 17 rushing yards.
That pretty much tells the story of the game, folks.
Following Saturday’s win, head coach Kirby Smart provided an update for wide receiver Isiah Canion and running back Nate Frazier, both of whom left Week 3’s matchup early with respective injuries. Canion suffered a right leg injury and left in the first half while Frazier left later in the second half after being “dinged” up, Smart said.
There’s some good news, though. Smart mentioned that both Canion and Frazier could have returned to the game if necessary, but were held out with the Bulldogs already up big.
Canion suffered his injury attempting to haul in a reception and did not record any stats on Saturday. Frazier, on the other hand, was a big part of Georgia’s win and totaled 75 yards with 1 touchdown across 14 carries (5.4 yards per carry). Apart from QB Gunner Stockton, Frazier was Georgia’s leading rusher.
Next up for Georgia, the Bulldogs are set to return home to Sanford Stadium to host John Mateer and the Oklahoma Sooners.
