Presented by dognation.com. This is Dog Nation Daily, the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs fame.

Here's your host, Brandon Adams. We have been having a little bit of an ongoing conversation lately about what I believe is the potential for Georgia to kind of sneak up on some people in 2025.

Now, let me be very clear about this.

This is not for me, and I've said this before, what we did back in 2022,

certain issues with its roster, needs for improvement from the previous year, I would say that some of
