2.5 – Georgia’s defense had seven tackles for loss and Kamari Lassiter led the way with two and a half.

3 – The three points Georgia scored in the first half was its lowest since scoring three in the first 30 minutes against LSU in the 2019 SEC Championship.

20 – Rattler had 20 incompletions in the game. He had 11 in first two games combined.

21 – The Bulldogs have now won 21 straight games at Sanford Stadium.

29 to 17 – The Bulldogs ended up with 29 first downs compared to the Gamecocks who finished with 17.

48 – The Bulldogs have won 48 straight games when taking a lead into the fourth quarter.

74.0 – Beck is currently second in the SEC with a completion percentage of 74 percent this season (71-for-96).
