The Georgia defense continues to dominate. The Bulldogs have recorded back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 2006, outscoring Vanderbilt and Arkansas 99-0 the past two Saturdays.
The shutouts were the first time since 1980 that Georgia held consecutive SEC opponents (Vanderbilt and Kentucky) without scoring. The UGA record for consecutive shutouts is five, recorded in the 1924 season, which was a wildly different era in college football.
Auburn could present the Bulldogs with their toughest test thus far this season, given that season-opening opponent Clemson has fallen from No. 3 to outside the Top 25.
