Spring game in Georgia’s immediate observations following G-Day

by

Georgia held its spring break on Saturday with the Red Team, which consists of attacking the first team and defending the second team, with a 28-23 victory over the Black team, made up of the second team attack. and defense of the first team.

Below are some key take-away from what was also Georgia’s last spring exercise of 2021.

First-year Adonai Mitchell is prominent

Georgia was very cracked when the wide receiver came in that day. George Pickens, Jermaine Burton and Arain Smith all sustained injuries during the spring practice. Justin Robinson, who had a strong spring, was kept off his feet for safety reasons.

This meant that first-year Adonai Mitchell was going to get a bigger chance. He made a start with the attack on the first team, and Georgia made it very important to get the young wide receiver from Texas as many representatives as they could.

Mitchell had some up and down moments as he was unable to catch a good back-shoulder throw from JT Daniels on the first ride, but he ended the day with seven catches at 105 yards for Georgia. He ended the first half with a 24-yard pass from Daniels on the final game of the first half.

Mitchell had a game target of 13 targets as Daniels and the Bulldogs made a clear effort to get him kicking the football.

Although Mitchell was the first first-year student, he was not the only one to make plays. The first time, Brock Bowers, finished with three catches for 37 yards. Brock Vandagriff, a five-star in 2021, completed 6 of his 9 pass attempts for 47 yards, but had the first turnover of the game when he made a turn.

JT Daniels, Zamir White impress with attack on first team

Running Kendall Milton as your third team is an absolute luxury for Georgia. But junior Zamir White has shown why Milton is not yet the workhorse for the Bulldogs.

White finishes with six runs on 28 yards and hits the ground. He also showed his improved passing abilities as he came down with six receptions for 50 yards.

Daniels looked incredibly sharp for Georgia and completed 28 of his 41 attempts for 324 yards and three touchdowns. The junior quarterback made a number of impressive throws and showed why he has the potential to be one of the best quarterbacks in the country.

His last throw of the game was a pass mark of 59 yards to senior Demetris Robertson.

The initial attacking line was Xavier Truss on left handle, Justin Shaffer on left guard, Warren Ericson in center, Tate Ratledge on right guard and Warren McClendon on right head. Jamaree Salyer did turn with Shaffer on the left guard as Georgia tried to get Ratledge more representatives.

Kearis Jackson looked like a starting receiver as he finished with four catches for 50 yards, including a nine-inch kick from Daniels.

Offensive signatories of 2020 make plays

Neither Kendall Milton nor Darnell Washington were in the first-team offense on Saturday as they worked with the Black team / second team offense. But come the fall, maybe it’s not long.

On the first team of the Black team, Washington and Milton showed why they ranked recruits highly in the 2020 work cycle.

Washington used its 6-foot-7 frame to make a Carson Beck pass in a 51-year gain. Poor Dan Jackson tried to drop Washington and it did not go well.

Las Vegas’ sophomore year ended with four catches at 84 yards, when he added a 13-yard catch in the fourth quarter.

On the next play, Milton found the end zone on an 8-year-old track for the first score of the day. He finished the match with eight runs for 34 yards, while also adding five receptions for 31 yards.

Georgia was without the full closet of 2020 weapons because Burton, Rosemy-Jacksaint and Smith were all in white non-contact jerseys. Smith did play while Rosemy-Jacksaint was able to dress on Saturday.

Beck also led the attack on the second team as he hit 236 yards on 22-of-31 and twice. Beck did intercept to start the second half when he was selected by Dan Jackson.

Defense, special teams and other notes

Jalen Kimber and Ameer Speed ​​got the start on the corner for Georgia, while Quay Walker and Channing Tindall were the frontrunners on the inside.

Among the top defensive players, Devonte Wyatt Nolan Smith put sustained pressure on Saturday. It was a strong day of rushing to the first string in Georgia as the Bulldogs fired the first team offense four times.

Jackson and safety Lewis Cine intercepted in the game. Jackson intercepted Beck while Cine picked a deep ball from Stetson Bennett.

Georgia did work player Jake Camarda as a field goal kicker, but it was not his sharpest day as he missed all three of his attempts. Georgia’s place kicker in 2020, Jack Podlesney, did make an effort for the Bulldogs of 35 yards. Camarda did push up a point from 70 meters and showed why he is one of the best players in the country.
