Georgia looks to stake out a commanding first-place lead in the SEC East division title race as the No. 11 Kentucky Wildcats come to Athens tied for first in the East division.
Georgia’s defense is fresh off two straight shutout performances, the first coming against Vanderbilt, where the Dawgs offense scored 62 points. The latest was a Georgia offense without JT Daniels dismantling the Razorbacks 37-0.
Kentucky is Georgia’s fourth-ranked opponent of the season and so far could be the toughest test out of all four. Last weekend saw Georgia dismantle a top-25 ranked Auburn 34-10 after Auburn jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead. Before traveling to Jordan Hare, Georgia shut out a red-hot Arkansas team 37-0, becoming Georgia’s second shutout on the season.
Kentucky is off to its best start in program history in a long time as they rank No. 11 in the AP poll following victories over Florida and LSU. The Wildcats beat the LSU Tigers at home in Lexington, Kentucky, just a week after taking down Florida.
