Austin Peay Governors @ Georgia Bulldogs Preview

The No. 5 ranked Georgia Bulldogs are set to host the Austin Peay Governors in what is expected to be a dominant performance. Georgia is coming off a commanding 45-7 victory over Marshall, a game where their defensive depth was on full display with 37 different players seeing action. Head Coach Kirby Smart emphasized the team's philosophy of playing "winning football" by rotating personnel to keep players fresh and develop younger talent. Quarterback Gunner Stockton had a promising start to his season, contributing two rushing touchdowns and two passing touchdowns in the opener. The Bulldogs are widely considered a college football juggernaut, and their home opener against an FCS opponent provides another opportunity to fine-tune their game before conference play.

On the other side, the Austin Peay Governors enter this matchup with confidence after upsetting Middle Tennessee State 34-14 in their season opener. The Governors' defense was particularly impressive, limiting Middle Tennessee State to just 153 total yards of offense and preventing them from converting any of their 12 third-down attempts. While Coach Jeff Faris has his team off to a strong start, the challenge of facing a top-tier FBS program like Georgia is a significant step up. In 2024, Austin Peay's offense averaged 22.4 points per game, a figure they will look to improve upon, but will face a formidable Georgia defense.
