UGA’s Lambert earns SEC Offensive Player of the Week

He’s owned Georgia over the years, but there was nothing he could do this night.

After a start last week against Vanderbilt where he had seven consecutive passes that went incomplete, Greyson Lambert as on a tear in his third start as a Bulldog. “We just haven’t ever played extremely well, and we have to try to play better”.

Spurrier’s teams had won four of their last five meetings with Georgia, and the Ol’ Ball Coach was 16-6 in his career against Georgia going back to his Florida days. The Bulldogs were racking up offensive records under his tutelage, but successor Brian Schottenheimer was able to silence some early doubters as well after Georgia shredded South Carolina for 576 yards and 9.1 yards per play.

“That’s pretty good”, Spurrier deadpanned.

“I was running a post”, Houston said. “I’m disappointed in that”. We’ve seen a lot more of him than anyone else has.

Orth scored on a 4-yard bootleg late in the first half, bringing the Gamecocks to 17-10.

The seventh-ranked Georgia football team began preparations for its second non-conference and fourth overall game of the season on Monday with a 90-minute workout in shorts on the Woodruff Practice Fields.

“We’re struggling on defense, as everybody knows”, Spurrier said Sunday afternoon.

Lambert, who transferred to Athens after losing his starting job at Virginia, faced plenty of skepticism coming into the season. Theus said Lambert was as “confident, calm and collected” as he’s been since he arrived on campus on July 13. “But it definitely feels good to have a game like this”. Sony Michel off another 11 yard reception for a touchdown.

Georgia will host Southern this Saturday at 12:00 p.m. The Bulldogs host Alabama in the following Saturday.

– Tennessee receiver Preston Williams, freshman of the week: three receptions, 98 yards, two touchdowns.

Georgia redshirt junior quarterback Greyson Lambert was not lacking for motivation before Saturday night’s 52-20 dismantling of South Carolina inside Sanford Stadium.

Lambert hasn’t set any cost limit on how much each of his teammates can get … not yet. Knott’s loss means the quarterback-center combo that South Carolina had entering the year are sidelined for extended periods.
