Georgia

What Georgia calls on every down, distance and part of the field, and how often each call works.

"Close-game plays only" leaves out snaps after a game is decided, when teams stop calling plays the way they normally do.

Keys for improvement: offense

58%

Georgia's plays work 58% of the time (114 of 198). All teams: 44%. That is better than most. A play "works" when it stays on schedule: half the distance on first down, 70% on second, all of it on third or fourth.

The rank is among FBS teams, with 1st the best for an offense, and the bar fills toward the best. Garbage time is left out. These are plain rates, not adjusted for opponent. A drive's points count the touchdown with its extra point or a field goal.

198 plays across 5 games. Run rate 49%. The quarterback has 15 of 97 runs, and the feed cannot tell a designed keeper from a scramble.
