Carson Beck threw for over 300 yards as No. 1 Georgia beat Auburn. But the crowd was a big factor.
Georgia quarterback Carson Beck throws a pass during the second half of an NCAA football game against Auburn, Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, in Auburn, Ala. Before Auburn would give the nation’s top-ranked team all it could handle Saturday, it was thought Auburn’s best chance in this game would be to rattle Georgia starting quarterback Carson Beck.
Georgia head coach Kirby Smart said Beck would have to rely on his ever-present confidence going into the game. Smart praised the overwhelming noise of Jordan-Hare Stadium, and most other SEC stadiums for that matter. He knew it would be a test.Auburn went up 10-0 in the first quarter, including defensive back Jaylin Simpson intercepting a Beck pass. In the raucous atmosphere, the man given the lead of the two-time defending national champions struggled early.
“We were sending a lot of heat at him -- and they were trying to run quick game,” Auburn linebacker Jalen McLeod said of Auburn’s pass rush getting after Beck. “That’s not their type of game. We got them out of their element for a little bit.” “He just stayed calm and collected the whole time,” Georgia wide receiver Ladd McConkey said. “It’s hard to come into a stadium like this, first road game, and get it done.”
