SEC Recap: Week Two

Georgia 27 vs. Auburn 6

I imagine this is the Georgia we’ll see for the remainder of the season.

If last week’s lackluster performance at Arkansas was a wake-up call, Saturday’s wood-shedding of Auburn could be an epiphany. If so, the East is settled, and the October 17 showdown between Georgia and Alabama will be a preview of the SEC title game.

Kirby Smith’s defense was a beast all night, making life very uncomfortable for quarterback Bo Nix and the Tiger offense, which compiled only 216 total yards. And here’s a little extra sting to go with that: when ranked in the Top 10 of the AP Poll, each of Auburn’s losses by 21 points or more have been at the hands of Georgia.
