⚡ CFB Dashboard

- Pick/market: We had 25 completions in the first game, and only 6 went to TE's, and as you pointed out, great results.

- LB: it's one reason we will see the CFP-24… these are two fanbases that would be far more engaged knowing they could get into the CFP, regardless of how far they go after that.

- Georgia outside linebacker Chase Linton remains week-to-week, according to Kirby Smart before Western Kentucky. Smart said the younger outside linebackers have been taking additional reps and developing while injured veterans help in meetings; he gave no return date or clearance for Linton. - Georgia's Kamari Brooks played extensively in the opener but is only recently back from an injury that cost him fall-camp time. Smart says his readiness is still being tested and the staff is accelerating his learning so he can contribute; opener playing time should not be read as proof he is fully developed or unrestricted going forward. - Smart cautions against overrating Georgia's offensive-line performance or pass rush from the opener: the opponent was overmatched in size and speed, and the quarterback released the ball quickly. Nobody played more than roughly 30-40 snaps. Rotating linemen beside different teammates was routine from practice, not a reported communication problem. - Georgia linebacker Chris Cole gives the defense speed, length and sideline-to-sideline range, with Smart highlighting his edge ability. Smart says Cole has less density than the larger versatile linebackers used as comparisons and less inside-linebacker experience than Quay; his edge strengths do not establish an identical all-purpose role.

- Pick/market: TLDR: Scattered thunderstorms are expected Saturday which may impact the game.

- Pick/market: I turned it off only to just check in on the ESPN app and it’s 77-7.

- LB: Welcome to Rise and Grind, a daily series where I start every morning by sharing what's on my mind about Georgia football.

- OL/LB: They will likely win, but the difference between DeBoer and Kirby is not in the big time opponents, but DeBoer 's inability to get Bama ready to go every week against the weak sisters.

- LB: Memories of riding to or from youth league football games with my Dad and listening to Leonard's Losers will be with me as long as I'm on the green side of the grass.

- RB/WR: Early for sure, this is based on their solid roster improvements at WR and RB, hiring Muschamp as well as a more experienced Manning.

- Coaching: 3 Georgia came to Sanford Stadium on Saturday fully intending to make quick work of Tennessee State.

- QB/LB: I really don't get the hype behind Leavitt and laugh at the Heisman stuff.

- LB: Yep, counting the draft, OSU replaced half of their roster.

- Georgia's outside-linebacker options remain reduced by Amaris Williams' spring knee injury and Chase Linton's lower-leg injury, with Linton described as week-to-week rather than assigned a confirmed return date. - Newcomer PJ Dean recorded 1.5 sacks, 1.5 tackles for loss and two tackles against Tennessee State, while Khamari Brooks added three tackles as Georgia tested younger pass-rush options in the opener. - Defensive end Gabe Harris generated multiple pressures despite recording only two tackles, contributing to a Georgia pass rush that finished with three sacks against Tennessee State, matching its highest single-game sack total from last season. - Kirby Smart highlighted inside linebacker Chris Cole's speed, length and ability to work on the edge, while Cole's opener included half a sack, a tackle for loss, three tackles and a pass breakup.

- Injury: It’s true that the same version of a team does not show up every week.

- Injury: 2 Georgia is preparing to take on its first FBS foe of the season as Western Kentucky comes to Athens this Saturday.

- Pick/market: The weight for SEC football ended last week with all 16 teams returning to action.

- Pick/market: The nature of Georgia's Week 1 game with Tennessee State meant the Bulldogs' reserve quarterbacks would get a chance to play.

- LB: He is on a perfect trajectory in my book based on our depth chart.

- Pick/market: Georgia took care of business as much as it ever has in Week 1.

- Injury: Love seeing Kyron Jones back out there after the injury.

- Injury: If Kirby had to pick a back up QB to come into a big game or tight game I truly believe it would be Montgomery.
