The Georgia Bulldogs suffered a 28-10 loss against the Ole Miss Rebels.  A big culprit of that was the UGA offense. Carson Beck played more hesitantly due to his turnover issues in games against Texas and Florida. The offensive line let him down and allowed five sacks.

They were arguably worse in the run-blocking department. The running game only generated a total of 59 yards on 33 carries, good for only 1.8 yards per rushing attempt. Overall, it was just a poor offensive showing.

The defense tried to pick up the slack, but they allowed seven different drives to end in points. One reason was because the Georgia offense turned the ball over three times, which put the defense in some terrible situations.
