Recap | Game Summary
|
|
Georgia QB Mike Bobo didn't have the pub of Tennessee's Peyton Manning or Kentucky's Tim Couch, but he completed a higher percentage of his passes than Manning (65 to 60) and had the best passing efficiency rating in the SEC (155.81). Wisconsin's Dayne had the preseason pub, but injuries hampered his effectiveness. Still, he had three 200-yard games, 15 TDs and more than 1,400 yards.

|
Georgia is the better passing team, and Wisconsin, supposedly, the better running team. But even with Dayne, Wisconsin averages only 4.1 yards a carry. Georgia averages 4.3. Who do you like? The SEC team that lost to Tennessee and Auburn, or the Big Ten team that lost to Syracuse and Purdue?

|
Wisconsin had three one-point wins and one three-point win this season -- all against unranked teams.
