Georgia vs Vanderbilt Game Preview

Why Vanderbilt Will Win

Get AJ Swann going right away.

The freshman quarterback is looking more and more like a talent to build around hitting 71% of his passes for 281 yards and two scores in the loss to Ole Miss. He has yet to throw an interception this season. He’s not afraid to push the ball down the field, and in the he’ll have to take chances.

The Georgia offense was fine cranking out rushing scores last week against Auburn, but it’s been three games since Bennett threw a scoring pass.

Vanderbilt was great in the first half against Ole Miss last week and it’ll be completive early on this week, too. The Georgia offense will pick it up late in the first half and the defense will clamp down hard in the second.
