Timely delayed pressure. Carter comes in and forces Rising into the rush. Rising's beg for a face mask goes on deaf ears. Kids kinda spunky, kinda whiny.

Only 45 yds rushing in 1st half. Utah crowding LOS daring Clifford to throw. He's done a great job but WR isn't our strength.

I am not sure, but on the throw to the tight end that was incomplete I thought I saw the tight end push off. It was real quick so I may be wrong.

The TE and King kind of came together right as the TD made his cut. King stumbled after that interaction -- not sure if it was from a push or from bouncing off of the TE. Didn't seem to be enough to warrant a offense pushing flag

I can see where Utah wants to follow the Michigan game plan. Keep our offense off the field and gas (and gash) the defense.

Poor tackling is gonna cost them this game.
Yep. 5 yard gains turn into 15 yards. Tackles for no gain turn into 7 yard gains. Just don’t understand how it’s not a priority to fix after seeing it year after year.

My fingernails don't stand a chance in the 2nd half. Hopefully Manny can make the adjustment and shut em down.

You did, but it was subtle enough that it was overlooked.

We are just not a good tackling team. We lose way too many one on one situations. Franklin should have Jack Ham coach tackling. Best one on one tackler I ever seen. That's the one aspect of Georgia's game that is solid.
Jack Ham is 74. Not sure hiw much he could demonstrate.

Issue is Utah is a second half team!

We better adjust on D or it’s lights out,,,that’s not board talk it’s truth.

Finally got home on the QB. Doing that more will be the key to winning the second half.
Utah only attempted 15 passes and 5 of those were in the last 50 seconds. It's tough to get sacks when the QB hands it off.

Rising has 31 yds running and that includes the sack. I'd rather stop that.

No team tackles like they used to, they’re not allowed. When you’re constantly making sure you don’t get thrown out of the game, you’re going to be tentative. Fans of every team feel the same way.
Proper technique and you'll never get thrown out. But too many players want to go for that kill shot by leading with their head and that's why we have all the targeting penalties across college football.

Nice D after Utah was moving. They force Utah to punt, which gets downed at the 5.
