UGA DT Jordan Davis prepared for challenges ahead

It might seem easy for a team like the number three-ranked Georgia Bulldogs to be content with their status as one of the elite teams in all of college football. However, defensive tackle Jordan Davis understands that this mindset of satisfaction will not deliver the school its first national championship since 1980.

“It’s something we definitely keep in our minds, not to slip, especially in this game college football, you have to bring it every week,” Davis recently told a group of reporters. “If you get caught sleeping, it’s going to be detrimental, because someone can take advantage of that.”

The Dawgs hope to carry this attitude into every game they play, even if it’s against a small school like Murray State this coming weekend.

“Coach (Kirby Smart) is going to preach about playing to a high standard no matter who the opponent is, it could be Murray Sate, it could be anybody in the SEC, it could be anyone in the Pac-12, it doesn’t matter, but as long as we play our game we’ll be fine.”
