Georgia football is now 10-1 on the year with just 1 game left in the regular season after dominating Charlotte at Sanford Stadium, 35-3.
The afternoon was wholly unremarkable, which is a good thing for Kirby Smart and Co. The Bulldogs scored all 5 of their touchdowns on the ground, rushing for 192 yards while holding the Charlotte offense to just 169 total yards. The 49ers fared 1-11 on 3rd down and possessed the ball for just 23 minutes.
Bo Walker posted a hat trick and had the best day of any player on offense. The freshman running back totaled 9 carries with 48 yards and 3 touchdowns in a dominant red zone performance. Nate Frazier did the honors with the other 2 scores and finished with a game-high 54 rushing yards.
Really, it was the perfect game for Georgia with just one regular season matchup to go next week against Georgia Tech. The Bulldogs were able to avoid any injuries and got the young players some valuable reps. Speaking of, backup quarterback Ryan Puglisi made an appearance for the 6th time this season. He completed 7 of his 11 passes for 49 yards, though he did take one sack.
As mentioned above, Georgia now looks ahead to Rivalry Week, with Georgia Tech still hunting for a spot in the College Football Playoff. Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate will kick off at 3:30 p.m. Friday on ABC.
Georgia 35, Charlotte 3
