Georgia Southern 14, No. 5 Georgia 45 – Despite a slow start, the Bulldogs (10-1, 7-1) got the job done Saturday against Georgia Southern. “Did Georgia come out a little flat, a bit sloppy and probably unfocused against an FCS opponent? Clearly,” wrote Jeff Schultz of the AJC. “But after what the Bulldogs have overcome in the past few weeks, a letdown should not have come as a surprise.

Any doubts about which team should be sitting on top of the SEC East were likely erased Saturday with No. 2* Florida’s thrashing of No. 7 South Carolina. By the half, the Gators had a 21-6 lead and things only got worse from there as Florida cruised to a 44-11 victory.
