Georgia 31, Vanderbilt 14 In Three Things

1. Georgia opened the scoring on a 50-yard punt return for a score from Isaiah McKenzie, and despite a sluggish offensive performance, was never really threatened. Sonny Michel gave the Bulldogs a 14-3 lead on a 31-yard scoring dash.

2. Vanderbilt only managed two Tommy Openshaw second quarter field goals before finally getting into the end zone on a seven-yard Latevius Rayford catch in the final five minutes. The Commodores had one late chance, but Dominick Sanders came up with a pick six.

3. Greyson Lambert ran for a five-yard score, but the Georgia passing game struggled.
