Georgia football podcast: 3 steps to make UGA the country’s best defense

Beginning of the show: Every preseason prediction for Georgia begins with a basic stipulation. The Bulldogs are assumed to have one of the best defenses in the country.

UGA’s prodigious talent level and recent track record of success are the main reasons many analysts seem comfortable making those predictions. Yet what if those prognostications were taken a step further? What if the qualifiers are removed?

What will it take for UGA to move from being one of the nation’s best defenses to truly being tops in the sport? I’ll discuss that topic on today’s show.
