ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia strengthened its late-season position with a 48–21 victory over Missouri at Sanford Stadium, using a balanced offense to separate from the Tigers and improve to 9–1.
The Bulldogs finished with 468 total yards, including 286 through the air and 182 on the ground. Georgia also recorded 23 first downs while keeping sustained pressure on Missouri’s defense.
Quarterback Gunner Stockton passed for 252 yards, while Nate Frazier led Georgia’s rushing attack with 72 yards. Craig Dandridge Jr. finished as the Bulldogs’ leading receiver with 85 yards.
The win dropped Missouri to 6–4 and gave Georgia another consequential conference result as the regular season moves toward its conclusion.
Georgia’s ability to produce through both the running and passing games made the difference. Instead of relying on one explosive player, the Bulldogs forced Missouri to defend multiple areas of the field and created scoring opportunities throughout the game.
The 48-point performance also provided evidence that Georgia’s offense can generate sustained production as the postseason approaches. Questions will remain about consistency against elite opponents, but a 27-point conference win gives the Bulldogs useful momentum.

The broader conversation now turns to what Georgia must do during its remaining games to protect its postseason position. At 9–1, the Bulldogs remain firmly in contention, but the margin for mistakes narrows as championship and playoff decisions approach.
