Georgia cruises past Auburn in a top-ten matchup

#7 Auburn (1-1) gave #4 Georgia (2-0) no problems on Saturday night in Athens.

It was pure domination from the opening kick until the final whistle and Georgia walked off with a 27-6 win.

For quarterback Stetson Bennett, you’d never suspect there was ever a quarterback battle up until the last minute. In his first career start for UGA, Bennett completed 17/28 passes for 240 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions.

His favorite target of the night was Kearis Jackson, who had a massive ballgame, reeling in nine catches for 147 yards. If Georgia can get consistent production out of Jackson, a former 4-star Peach County product, then the Dawgs are in great shape at wide receiver with George Pickens on the outside.
