The big pregame topic for this game is the health of Georgia quarterback JT Daniels. Given how its defense played Saturday against Clemson, No. 2 Georgia may not need many points to win the game. That could give the Bulldogs coaches more freedom to play backups Carson Beck and freshman Brock Vandagriff.

While Alabama-Birmingham shouldn’t be taken lightly, Georgia still should have an advantage great enough to go deep into its bench.

Here is some important information regarding how to follow the action Saturday:
