And Georgia is struggling on kick return coverage.

The Bulldogs have kicked the ball off 20 times this season so far. Only six of those kickoffs have gone for touchbacks, however, giving Georgia a 30 percent touchback rate on kickoffs. Thats the third-worst percentage in the SEC. For comparison, the Vols have the fifth-highest percentage with 58.3 percent of their kickoffs going for touchbacks this season.
Not only is Georgia failing to kick the ball deep enough to prevent returns, but they arent stopping returners from ripping off big gains either.
Georgia ranks 11th in the SEC in opponent kick return average with opposing kick returners gaining an average of 22.6 yards a return. In fact, the Bulldogs are the only SEC team to give up a kick return touchdown so far this season. The Bulldogs are also giving up the third-most kick return yards per game, allowing teams to gain 79.3 yards a game on kick returns.
