Through the first three weeks of the college football season, Georgia’s defensive line has experienced injury issues that have tested the depth and that unit hasn’t been nearly as dominant as the groups from 2021 and 2022 that led the Bulldogs to back-to-back national titles.

In its 13-12 Week 3 win over Kentucky, a program that plucked Brock Vandagriff and Jamon Dumas-Johnson from Georgia’s roster this offseason, Georgia was outplayed on both lines of scrimmage. In a world where you can no longer overwhelm a program that you’ve beaten 15 straight times with constant waves of talent, you have to rely on your very best players to be better than theirs, and on offense, Carson Beck is Georgia’s best player.
