| 0:00.0 | Today's episode of Dog Nation Daily is brought to you by Braida Pest Management, the official pest control of UGA Athletics. |
| 0:10.4 | Presented by Dog Nation.com. This is Dog Nation Daily, the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs fame. |
| 0:16.9 | Here's your host, Brandon Adam. As we get rolling here today, let me give you a quick reminder of what a prevailing narrative has been on our show the last couple of days. |
| 0:25.3 | If you want to look ahead to next Saturday against Clemson, I think the easiest and most straightforward path for Georgia victory there in that game involves leaning on what was a tremendous strength for Georgia last year |
| 0:39.3 | in comparison to what Clemson put out on the field. |
| 0:43.6 | What we've said is, is that when you compare Georgia offense, Georgia defense, Clemson |
| 0:48.1 | offense, Clemson defense, on paper, the decided advantage in this game belongs to the Georgia offense, a much more high-powered offense in recent years, certainly last year, than what Clemson has been. |
| 1:02.0 | And if Georgia is going to ensure itself a victory or perhaps even an easy victory in keeping with some of the blowouts it's had in recent years against ranked non-conference |
| 1:11.6 | opponents, being the far better offensive team next Saturday is a really important thing for |
| 1:17.7 | Georgia to establish. We've talked about that now a couple of times. Perhaps you've heard us say that. |
| 1:22.0 | I want to give you a little bit of a, I guess, a statistical profile to kind of help back that up here |
| 1:27.3 | just a little bit. |
| 1:28.3 | And then I'll tell you what's new on this front here today. |
| 1:32.1 | When you compare these two defenses, you realize that while Georgia may not quite be what it was the very best of itself in 2021 and at a national championship level in 2022, |
| 1:42.3 | it was still a very good defense a year ago. |
| 1:44.5 | And Clemson has certainly receded a good bit from its sort of playoff perennial status |
| 1:50.0 | from 2015 through 2020, which included also a couple of national championships back |
| 1:54.4 | when Brent Venables was leading this defense. |
| 1:56.7 | But even in the aftermath of all that, this is also still a very respected defense, pretty much year to year. |
| 2:03.1 | To back this up, you know, Georgia last year was fifth in America in terms of points per game allowed for the season at 15.6. |
| 2:11.6 | They were also 11th in America and yards per play allowed there too at 4.77. So kind of right there in the two top |
| 2:21.2 | 10 categories that I think probably matter as much as anything. How many points are you giving up |
