Kirby Smart critical of Georgia offense after Georgia Tech posts first half shutout

On Saturday, Georgia Tech stunned fans around the nation as it took a 17-0 lead over Georgia into halftime. Before entering the locker room at the break, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart revealed what his offense did wrong in the first half.

“You got to win first down on these guys,” Smart told ESPN’s Katie George. “They’re like a triple option team. They nickel and dime you and they keep possession of the clock.Wwe knew that going in. They got a really good quarterback. He runs it, throws it. They’re doing a great job offensively. We’re not getting off the field on third down.

“The first thing you do is don’t turn it over. The second thing you do is convert third and one or fourth and one, and that’s two drives that should have been points that we got nothing out of. You don’t get many possessions against these guys and we knew that.”
