Kentucky almost found a way to beat Georgia earlier this month. How can Alabama football learn from Kentucky's game plan?
Nick Kelly | [email protected] Bulldogs struggled to find the end zone for most of the night, and as a result, the Wildcats had a chance to win for a while. Georgia went on to win 13-12, but Kentucky showed the Bulldogs aren’t unbeatable.“I thought Kentucky played really hard,” Alabama defensive coordinator Kane Wommack said. “They played at a fever pitch. They were physical. They played with great effort and finish.
The Wildcats limited the Georgia offense to 262 yards and only 12 first downs. The Bulldogs went 5-for-13 on third down. Quarterback Carson Beck passed for 160 yards with no touchdowns. Meanwhile, Georgia didn’t have a runner reach 80 yards. Kentucky also tallied 11 pressures, according to Pro Football Focus.
“ give you a lot of window dressing and eye candy, whatever you wanna call it,” Wommack said. “A lot of formations, a lot of shifts, a lot of pictures, and you’ve got to be able to fundamentally line up and execute. And yet at the same time, do enough to be able to create negative plays and takeaways. And so there’s a fine balance there, but I thought Kentucky did a really nice job of that.”
Georgia will, of course, self scout and make adjustments based on what didn’t work against Kentucky. But the Wildcats still managed to show a blueprint of one way to slow down the Bulldogs’ offense.Can Travaris Robinson help Georgia football in return to Alabama?
