Georgia Football Offensive Players to Watch vs Kentucky

Dominic Lovett, WR
If rain does end up impacting this game, that could result in both offenses relying on the quick game when passing the football. Lovett is often a player Georgia likes to get involved in the screen game and get the ball to him in short space to allow him the ability to gain yards after the catch. He has shown his ability to make the first defender miss consistently through two weeks this season. Lovett out of the slot on Saturday is a name to keep an eye on.

Trevor Etienne, RB
He was perhaps the most impressive player on Saturday against Tennessee Tech. The Florida transfer brings serious life and juice to the running back room. It could be a game in which Georgia really relies on the run game and Etienne will likely be the point man in that type of gameplan. If Georgia is going to find some explosiveness in the run game on Saturday, look for Etienne to be the guy they call upon to achieve that.

Arian Smith, WR
Kentucky allowed four passing plays of 20 yards or more against South Carolina and two that went for 30 or more yards. That would indicate they are prone to allowing explosive plays in the passing game and that makes for Smith to be a player to watch on Saturday. Even if rain does play a factor in this football game, it is unlikely that Georgia won’t try to get some deep shots mixed in at least a few times on Saturday. Carson Beck has looked Smith’s way multiple times this season to get some chunk plays out of the offense and they will likely do the same on Saturday.
