The Georgia Bulldogs and Clemson Tigers kicked off their seasons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, with a highly anticipated Week 1 matchup. Both teams entered the game with hopes of making the college football playoff, and the outcome is likely to provide significant momentum for the victorious side. Unfortunately for Georgia, they experienced a setback before the game, as defensive lineman Xavier McLeod will miss Saturday’s contest. McLeod, who transferred from South Carolina in the offseason, was expected to be a key contributor this season.
Georgia was already dealing with several injured players before the game, so losing more key players would be far from ideal. Securing a win against Clemson is crucial, but maintaining player health is also a top priority.
