No. 2 Georgia Dominates Western Kentucky in Home Blowout
Stockton completed 13 of 16 passes for 234 yards and five touchdowns as Georgia built a 49-0 halftime lead and matched a school record.
On Saturday, No. 2 Georgia defeated Western Kentucky 70-20 at Sanford Stadium, with quarterback Gunner Stockton tying a school record with five touchdown passes.
Wearing all-white uniforms for the first time in team history, the Bulldogs took control early, jumping to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter.
Freshman safety Tyriq Green contributed a 91-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and recovered a fumble in the end zone, while backup quarterback Ryan Puglisi added a 70-yard scoring run.
Georgia's defense limited the Hilltoppers to 225 total yards across 74 plays, allowing just 110 rushing yards and 115 passing yards to secure the dominant victory.
The defending national champions extended the Football Bowl Subdivision's longest active winning streak to 18 games, preparing for their Southeastern Conference opener against Arkansas on September 19.
