Georgia football podcast: ESPN personality gives more bulletin board material to UGA

NOTE: This is the DawgNation Daily episode for Monday, April 24, 2023.

Beginning of the show: Perceived doubt became a big source motivation for Georgia last season en route to a second straight national championship. Former Bulldogs outside linebacker Nolan Smith has even admitted to exaggerating some negative claims as a way of pushing his teammates to greater success. However, given the run the Bulldogs have been on the last two seasons, it would be easy to assume that those tricks won’t work this year. After all, who could possibly doubt UGA given all it has accomplished?

Apparently, betting against the Bulldogs is still possible.

I’ll share on today’s show why a prominent voice in college football, ESPN’s Rece Davis, has Michigan, and not the Bulldogs, as his preseason No. 1 team. I’ll also discuss how statements like that could potentially play into UGA coach Kirby Smart’s hands as he prepares his team for the upcoming season.

15-minute mark: I discuss why UGA quarterback Gunner Stockton possibly didn’t get enough attention after spring practice.

20-minute mark: DawgNation’s Connor Riley joins the show to recap how the Bulldogs offense developed during spring practice.

40-minute mark: I begin a series looking at one big game for each team in the SEC.

End of show: I award a Golden Shoe winner and update the Gator Hater Countdown.
