The Georgia Bulldogs are on cruise control heading into their rivalry matchup with Georgia Tech, but the stakes remain high in Athens. On3's Andy Staples projects them as a No. 4 seed in the playoff scenario.
Kirby Smart has his squad at a better place compared to the start of the season. They have been dominant, and the focus now is on avoiding complacency.
With the SEC title game potentially on the table, Georgia must balance peaking at the right time with conserving energy for big games ahead. Yet again, they can't overlook a Yellow Jackets team who took them to eight overtimes last year.
A smooth finish to the regular season could reinforce their status, but letting up could invite unwanted outcomes. For the Bulldogs, staying sharp even in a favored position is the challenge.
