Georgia defense not content even after excellent start to season

Georgia inside linebacker Jamon Dumas-Johnson and outside linebacker Nolan Smith did not want an asterisk put on South Carolina’s only touchdown drive Saturday.
The Bulldogs defense prevented the Gamecocks from scoring until only 53 seconds were left in the game, when South Carolina backup quarterback Luke Doty threw on Georgia’s backups and found Traevon Kenion for a 13-yard touchdown. The two Georgia linebackers were both watching from the sidelines when Doty hit Kenion for the score, but following the game, they emphasized that touchdown counts all the same.
“The team they scored on, they’re all starters. If you’re on the field, you’re a starter,” Dumas-Johnson said.
“If you’re in, you’re a starter. They did score, so no matter what they scored. We had points on the board, and our job is don’t let nobody in the end zone. If you’re on the field, you’re a starter,” Smith said. “We’ve got to do a better job of communicating on the sideline, and when guys go in — like I said — they’re starters. We’ve got to make sure no one gets in our end zone.”
Given how well Georgia’s defense has played through three games, the Bulldogs can afford to quibble with something as trivial as who is or is not a starter.
The Bulldogs have absolutely dominated their first three opponents this season and have given up a grand total of 10 points through three games. Doty’s late pass marked the first touchdown Georgia has surrendered this season, which stands as a testament to the work of the entire defense.
Georgia entered Saturday knowing it could not afford to let South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler go off. Aside from a handful of plays, the Bulldogs came through on what Smith said was one of their musts this week: rattling Rattler.
Georgia held Rattler to 13-of-25 passing for only 118 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions, the first being a first-quarter pick right to Malaki Starks and the second being a third-quarter bomb that was brought down by Dan Jackson. The Bulldogs never sacked Rattler but brought enough pressure to fluster the Oklahoma transfer, which led to a poor performance that let Georgia run away with another blowout win.
For Dumas-Johnson, Georgia’s style of play on defense boils down to the mentality they’ve taken on from their coaches.
“It comes back to being hungry and hunting this season,” said Dumas-Johnson, who had a team-high 6 tackles. “Our mentality was strong. We were fast and physical. The defense was eager. We don’t even want [them] to get a first down on us. That’s our mentality coming into the game. That’s why we have great players all over the defense on the field. As long as we communicate and be in the right spots, we don’t see anybody doing anything.”
After last week’s win over Samford, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart said he wanted to see how the defense handled adversity, and there were two instances Saturday where the Bulldogs had something go wrong but rose to the ensuing challenge.
Georgia followed a big 46-yard pass from Rattler to tight end Jaheim Bell in the first quarter with Starks’ interception two plays later. Later in the quarter, South Carolina pulled off a successful fake-punt pass before Georgia forced a turnover on downs five plays later.
For Smart, those types of responses were exactly what he wanted to see from his young defense.
“We made some plays today and didn’t back down. We gave up the bomb on Kamari [Lassiter], boom, get a pick two plays later. We give up a play on the fake punt, and nobody panicked,” Smart said. “They were happy they could go out and play some more. ‘Let’s get our snaps in. Let’s go stop them.’ That’s the way you have to approach it.”
Smart credited the defense for practicing really hard on a regular basis. He added that one of Georgia’s coaches told Smart the amount of detail the Bulldogs put on their scout cards and the types of reps they do against the scout team result in the hardest situations possible against every call.
The motivation of practice being so difficult is making game day significantly easier as a result, a sentiment cornerback Kelee Ringo is fully in on.
“We’re always going to get somebody’s best. I don’t feel like throughout the entire week [of practice] we’re going to see too much better, honestly,” Ringo said. “That’s why a lot of us say that practice is much harder than the games. They try to put us through hell and put us in every worst situation you could possibly be in so as soon as we get to the game, there’s no panic or any second guessing.”
Leaving the field Saturday, Georgia’s top defenders were not content with the seven points scored by South Carolina — even if they were merely spectators when it happened. That mindset is part of why Georgia finds itself with another outstanding defense, one that the players on it feel still has room for improvement.
“We work hard every day no matter what. One good thing about playing defense at Georgia: you’re going to work. We’re going to have musts,” Smith said. “We’re always going to have things to fix, and we’re going to go see the doctor on Monday to see what we did bad this game.”

More than a school! Great start to the school year
Nice new changes. At the beginning of the new school year, IKEA designers coped with a difficult task with a bang. They had to redo the rest room in a special school in the north of Latvia. The school breaks the stereotypical attitude towards such institutions – according to the director, amazing children study here and amazing teachers work here. Thanks to their attitude, patience and love, this school does not have the atmosphere that is often associated with such institutions. Let’s take a look at how the IKEA designer handles the recreation room makeover. nine0003
Details make the atmosphere
School management started working here about two years ago, and a lot has changed since then. The room, which used to be completely uncomfortable, was repaired on its own, but still something is missing. Its zest, which will make this room special, and will attract children. Children admitted that they spend more time in their rooms, because the recreation room does not give the feeling that you can relax here. The guys want a bright room where there will be more places to chat without disturbing each other. nine0003
Let’s add character – bright colors, for a bright mood
When planning the interior for a nursery and a teenager’s room, it is important to think outside the boundaries and familiar interiors. Who said that the ceiling should only be white? If the ceilings in the room are high, then bright colors will only add an accent and help zone the room. When thinking about storing things, it is important to use the area of \u200b\u200bthe room, not only on the floor, but also on the walls. If you are not afraid to use open shelves, then this is a great opportunity to display beautiful things, add an accent to the room or create a backdrop. In order to avoid clutter, you can put boxes in open shelves in which you can hide everything you need. nine0003
Learn, play, relax – every day!
In a room where many people can be at the same time, it is important to consider zoning and lighting. Here, several pendant lights were used to create a cozy light above the tables. The windows were decorated with blinds and curtains for greater comfort. The IKEA designer emphasizes that textiles create a personal atmosphere, they are easy to change and change the atmosphere in the room.
How many functions does one room have?
By zoning a room you can accommodate many functions! A corner for watching movies with a soft sofa and armchairs appeared in the relaxation room; this area is marked with a bright carpet. A place to chat with friends on ottomans, a creative area where you can place pictures, information and other pictures or write a wish to your friends. A modern solution is a waste sorting zone, which also performs an educational function, and above it there is a place for growing indoor plants.

GREAT BEGINNING OF SUMMER |
This year, the wonderful holiday Children’s Day, which is annually celebrated by kids and their parents on June 1, fell on a Monday, so it was decided to postpone entertainment events in Sudogde to May 31. As it turned out, in 2015 the holiday celebrates its 65th anniversary – it was first celebrated in 1950. nine0008 The African heat that happened that day clearly scared the residents away from the city center. Those who nevertheless decided to visit the holiday were saved by the shade of nearby trees. Everything went with a bang! Near the CDC “Rodina” there are children’s attractions: trampolines, electric cars. A beautiful horse-pony in a festive outfit was especially popular. To the “little lady” lined up a whole line of guys who wanted to ride on it. Young guests rode electric cars, jumped on trampolines, ate cotton candy. nine0003 The Dividence dance group opened the holiday with a breathtakingly bright dance called “Stilyagi”. Following this, the girls went on stage several more times, and also played with young spectators. The “Living Source” team showed thematic numbers: “Veretentse” and “India”. The group “Street girl” introduced the public to new girls, who are now performing in its composition. Their small number quickly turned into a flash mob: the “heroes of the occasion” began to repeat the dance moves after the performers. On such a day, it was impossible to do without the songs that the Assorti vocal studio delighted the audience with. nine0003 The cultural program was “diluted” with sports. The relay race was attended by groups of children from city schools who fought for good prizes – sports equipment. On this day, there could be no losers, so everyone was satisfied! Alexander Skiba continued the entertainment program. Gathering children around him, he arranged fun contests. It was possible to win certificates in them – for example, to ride one of the rides. When the young guests got tired of outdoor games, Professor Max hurried to the rescue with his science show. It’s time to conduct experiments, and not only children, but also adults pulled themselves up to the stage with curiosity! It was such a busy day, there was a lot of joy and surprises, as well as a good mood – a great start to summer. <- Предыдущий пост: Kindercare st joseph mo: St. Joseph KinderCare | Daycare, Preschool & Early Education in Saint Joseph, MO Следующий пост: Kindercare blue springs: Highway 7 KinderCare | Daycare, Preschool & Early Education in Blue Springs, MO -> |
