Georgia is a 31-point favorite against Middle Tennessee. But by the looks of practice, you might think the Bulldogs were preparing to play a top-ranked opponent.
Georgia was in the midst of simulating defensive plays against a scout team and head coach Kirby Smart stood at the line-of-scrimmage. He was consistently yelling in the ears of his young defensive backs, and once the ball snapped, Smart ran with the rest of them.
“I don’t have any patience,” Smart said to sophomore cornerback Mark Webb Jr. “You messed up. Reload.”
And so the play was run again, and Smart wasn’t finished until it was to his liking — which was nothing less than perfect.
