Georgia bulldozes over Kentucky thanks to 1 huge bounce back game from Bulldogs star

The Georgia Bulldogs needed a huge victory coming off the disappointing loss to Alabama last weekend and quarterback Gunner Stockton delivered with a massive bounce back game on Saturday.

Through less than three quarters of action Stockton led the Bulldogs to a 35-7 lead, tallying nearly 250 total yards and three scores himself. Yes, he threw the one interception, but overall he dominated through the air and on the ground. If he continues taking steps forward like this Georgia fans should expect to see their team playing into January.

Gunner Stockton's bounce back game dominated Kentucky for Georgia

Kirby Smart spent the week talking through how this matchup with Kentucky was going to be all about physicality, and the media wanted to spend a ton of time on the running game (especially Nate Frazier's fumbling), but this victory was all about Gunner Stockton and his play at quarterback.

Yes, the Bulldogs did score four rushing touchdowns, and rack up 180 yards on the ground, but this was Stockton's coming out party as a field general who can do it all. The first two drives for Georgia were masterful in execution, spanning 12 and 13 plays respectively. Both ended with a Gunner Stockton rushing touchdown.
