The Georgia football team held its second practice of preseason camp Wednesday
afternoon at the Woodruff Practice Fields, working out for approximately two
hours in shorts and helmets.
Wednesday was the second of 11 consecutive
days of practice for the Bulldogs, and offensive coordinator Brian
Schottenheimer said he has been pleased with his unit so far.
“I think
we’ve had two good days,” Schottenheimer said. “It’s a little different when you
don’t have pads on, but I know yesterday was real crisp and clean, playing at a
fast tempo in terms of personnel. We just have to keep putting days on top of
each other and stacking them and getting better each day.
“I think some
of the young receivers have shown the ability to not only make plays, but pick
up the system, and that’s important. We’re also learning about some of the young
linemen. They are going up against really good players. So far so
good.”
The Bulldogs will practice in shells on Thursday and Friday
before they wear full pads for the first time on Saturday. Georgia will hold its
lone two-a-day practice of the preseason next Monday.
Georgia, which
came in at No. 9 in the Amway Coaches Poll released last week, opens the season
against Louisiana Monroe Sept. 5 at noon Eastern. The game will be televised by
the SEC Network.
