The Bulldogs continued their unfortunate trend of only playing high caliber football for one-half. Georgia entered halftime with a commanding 16-0 lead and it looked like Michigan State was on life support. The Bulldogs had completely owned the Spartans during the first half and the G-Unit defense held them on the first series. The offense started moving down the field with ease, and then the wheels fell off. Aaron Murray threw a terrible interception and the Spartans commenced to score 27 unanswered points. UGA’s offense stalled, and it became evident that the Spartans not only had the momentum, but also believed they could win the game, while the Dawgs looked tired and without confidence.
Murray finished 20 of 32 for 288 yards, 2 touchdowns, 2 costly interceptions, and 1 fumble. It seems like a significant number of the Bulldog faithful are questing Isaiah Crowell’s place in the starting lineup, but I am starting to question Murray’s place. He is a great player who is worthy of starting at UGA, but I wonder if he can lead us to the next level. It seems like he tries to do too much, which leads him to make costly mistakes that are game changers. He has thrown too many bad inceptions this season after being flushed out the pocket or fumbled the ball.
I know that backup quarterback Hudson Mason has seen limited action against top shelf competition, but insiders say he is a legitimate quarterback who could start at a SEC school. Perhaps we need a new signal caller to reinvigorate the offense. I would like the coaches to hold a quarterback competition and allow Mason and Christian LaMay compete for the starting job.
