Anyone who has been doubting how capable the Georgia Bulldogs are of dominating the rest of college football got a stern reminder on Saturday night in Oxford.

After entering the evening 0-2 in his first two tries at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Kirby Smart checked another mark off the list for a venue he has taken his team into and left with a blowout victory. It was domination from the opening whistle with the Dawgs winning 42 to establish themselves as the dominant force in the SEC and push Ole Miss to the brink of elimination.

All week long, folks wondered how Georgia was going to handle Trinidad Chambliss this time around, and not only did they shut down the sensational Rebels quarterback, but he was severely outplayed by Bulldogs quarterback Gunner Stockton, who led the coming out party of sophomore sensation Talyn Taylor

After being doubted so much throughout the offseason, Georgia sophomore wide receiver Talyn Taylor had his biggest night so far for this team, catching four passes for 140 yards and three touchdowns to help the Dawgs pull away.

From the opening kickoff, Georgia was just the better team, dominating both through the air and on the ground. Defensively, it was an absolute clinic with 252 total yards for the Rebels and only 66 of them coming on the ground.

Chambliss was seeing ghosts all night, finishing 18 of 34 for 170 yards with an interception and a fumble on a strip sack in the second half which really put the final nail in the coffin for Ole Miss.

Stockton meanwhile like early in the year had to throw just 15 passes, completing nine of them for 186 yards and four touchdowns along with a rushing touchdown as well. Nate Frazier was the leading rusher on the game with 107 yards on 16 carries with a long of 46 yards.

It was truly a vintage Bulldogs performance on Saturday night, and with it, a message has been sent to the rest of the SEC and the nation: this Georgia team is absolutely good enough to make a run at a national title.

In the meantime, they must continue to take things game by game with Missouri coming to town next week before a massive road trip at South Carolina and wrapping up the regular season against Georgia Tech.

The Dawgs were barking on Saturday night, and they are not showing any signs of slowing down.
