Georgia lost to Vanderbilt in an upset on Saturday, falling 31-27 in the SEC matchup after overcoming a 13-point deficit. The Georgia Bulldogs have lost two games this season and both of those matchups have come against very good teams in Clemson and Missouri and now the Bulldogs will try and get back on track with a road SEC matchup against Vanderbilt and the game against the Commodores will start up at 12 pm noon on CBS at Vanderbilt Stadium.
The kiss against Missouri was a tough one for the Bulldogs and now the team must rebound after falling to 4-2, but luckily they are still in the mix in the division, as they are 3-1 in the SEC this season. The Tigers are now at the top of the east after defeating Georgia, improving to 2-0 and behind them tied at 3-1 are the Bulldogs, Florida and South Carolina. The east is basically the battle to face Alabama and if quarterback Aaron Murray and the Bulldogs want to return to the SEC championship game, they will have to get back on track against Vandy. Murray is having himself another great season and he has nearly 1,900 passing yards and 17 touchdowns and has already set some career SEC records.

Georgia opened the season with a tough game against Clemson and lost by just three points and while it always sucks to lose a game, the fact that the Tigers are ranked third in the nation right now make it a bit easier to swallow. The Bulldogs rebounded nicely with four straight wins over South Carolina, North Texas, LSU and Tennessee, the last game being on the road and an overtime contest. The win was big for Georgia, as they have a matchup looming against the Gators at home after playing Vandy.
The Georgia offense is averaging over 500 yards per game and the team is ranked in the top half of the nation in points scored with nearly 40 per game on average. The Bulldogs scored over 40 points in three straight games during their winning streak and now they likely will have to hope someone ahead of them loses to get back into the mix. Murray is coming off a solid game against Missouri, passing for 290 yards and three touchdowns, but he also had two costly picks. The previous week Murray had three touchdowns in the victory over Tennessee and now he will have the chance to play against Vandy.
Vandy is about to hit a tough stretch, as they play Georgia and then will play Johnny Manziel and Texas A&M and then against Florida on the road to take on the Gators. Later matchups include Tennessee and Wake Forest. Georgia and Vanderbilt will be playing their SEC matchup at 12 pm noon on Saturday at Vanderbilt Stadium and the game is the fourth conference matchup for the Commodores and the fifth for the Bulldogs.
