Second quarter blitz powers No. 1 Georgia to easy win over Florida

A quarterback change did not help Florida give Georgia a challenge on Saturday.

No. 1 Georgia scored 21 points in the final 2:22 of the second quarter to enter halftime up 24-0 on the way to a 34-7 win over the Gators in their annual Jacksonville rivalry game.

Florida started QB Anthony Richardson over Emory Jones. Georgia’s first TD came after Richardson was stripped in a moving pile with 2:22 to go in the second quarter and James Cook scored on an 11-yard TD run a play later.

Richardson then threw an interception on the second play of Florida’s next possession.
