No. 4 Georgia Defeats Austin Peay 28-6 Amid Rain Delay

Georgia secured a 28-6 victory over Austin Peay in a rain-delayed game at Sanford Stadium, despite an uneven offensive performance and several turnovers. The Bulldogs' defense was a key factor, limiting Austin Peay to under 200 yards and making critical stops, including a goal-line stand late in the game. Running backs Nate Frazier and Chauncey Bowens each scored two touchdowns, providing a reliable ground game as quarterback Gunner Stockton leaned on the run and short passes, struggling to stretch the field vertically. The game exposed questions about Georgia's offensive efficiency and Stockton's ability to read elite defenses, especially with an injury-depleted offensive line. Despite these challenges, the Bulldogs managed to control the game and prepare for their upcoming Southeastern Conference opener at Tennessee. Austin Peay's head coach Jeff Faris praised his team's grit and fight, acknowledging the strength of Georgia's program and leadership.
