Georgia football is the No. 1 topic every day on DawgNation Daily — the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs fans. Catch up on everything happening with UGA athletics with host Brandon Adams and the DawgNation experts as they break down the latest Georgia football recruiting news and discuss coach Kirby Smart’s quest to return the Bulldogs to the top of the SEC. On episode No. 1,328 (Nov. 20, 2020) of the podcast, Georgia fans can hear a discussion about what Alabama coach Nick Saban said about the connection between “great defense” and winning in college football, and why the topic is relevant for UGA.
