STORY 6: uga
The Georgia Bulldogs have commenced their fall camp, gearing up for the 2023 college football season and a potential historic feat – winning a third consecutive national championship. This opportunity puts them on track to become the first team since the 1930s to achieve this and the first since 1936 in the poll era. Despite the immense prospect, the team remains focused, not allowing the end goal or their previous year's triumphs to divert their attention. The Bulldogs are determined to tackle each practice and challenge with dedication, avoiding distractions and maintaining their sights set on success.
