It is tough to have an even worse start to the season than what Georgia performed in the very first half.
At the end of the first quarter, the Bulldogs had more penalty lawns than offensive backyards. The Bulldogs played numerous quarterbacks, starting with DWan Mathis and after that going to Stetson Bennett in the second quarter.

But much of the first half focus was on the offense, which went 1-for-12 on third down. The Bulldogs had six drives into Arkansas territory and came away with 3 points. This is likewise versus an Arkansas team that has a new coach in Sam Pittman and a group that had the worst defense in the SEC last season.

The Bulldogs played mostly excellent defense, with the exception of one goal drive in the first quarter. The Bulldogs did force a safety against the Razorbacks and Richard LeCounte did have an interception of Arkansas quarterback Feleipe Franks.
Bennett did show some development to end the half, performing a two-minute drill to get Georgia a basket from Jack Podlesny to make ball game 7-5. The Bulldogs gained 59 lawns on the last drive of the half.

Mathis was 6 of 14 for 37 lawns, an interception as well as a dropped breeze that took the Bulldogs out of field goal range. Georgia likewise ran for just 48 yards in the first half. Much of the first half focus was on the offense, which went 1-for-12 on third down. This is the very first game for brand-new Georgia offensive planner Todd Monken and it was very much one to forget. Georgia will look to turn things around in the 2nd half against the Razorbacks.
This is the first game for new Georgia offensive planner Todd Monken and it was quite one to forget. Georgia will seek to turn things around in the second half against the Razorbacks. The video game can be seen on the SEC Network.

I have now reached the point where I am rooting for a protective TD the rest of the game as our only hope.
