ATHENS, Ga. - In a dominant display, No. 4 Georgia's running game took center stage as they cruised to a 35-3 victory over underdog Charlotte on Saturday. Freshman Bo Walker made a significant impact, scoring his first three career touchdowns, while Nate Frazier added two scoring runs in the first quarter. This convincing win marks Georgia's seventh consecutive victory, while Charlotte suffered their eighth straight loss. Georgia's running game proved to be the deciding factor, outgaining the 49ers 449-169, with 192 yards on the ground. Senior running back Cash Jones made his first start in his final home regular-season game, but the Bulldogs opted to rely on Frazier and Walker, who combined for four touchdowns. Walker's 15-yard and 12-yard runs in the second quarter sealed the deal, pushing Georgia's lead to 28-0. Georgia continued to assert their dominance in the second half, with Walker adding a 3-yard scoring run. Charlotte's Grayson Loftis threw two interceptions, including one in the end zone, which ended a potential scoring chance. The 49ers' run defense struggled, while their pass defense managed to set up their only points with a 42-yard field goal on the final play of the half. Georgia, on the other hand, showed discipline and avoided a letdown, despite the unusual sight of empty seats at Sanford Stadium. The Bulldogs' margin of victory should secure their standing in the Top 25 and the College Football Playoff. Key players like quarterback Gunner Stockton and linebacker CJ Allen were held out due to injuries, while C Malachi Toliver made his debut as a starter. Georgia will face No. 15 Georgia Tech on Friday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, while Charlotte will close their season at Tulane next Saturday.
