[su_spacer size=”40″] “The weather tested them today,” head coach Mark Richt said. “The guys fought through it, and I think we got better. It was a feast or famine day. There were either a lot of big plays happening both ways, either a nice play offensively or an interception or forced fumble on defense. I think our defense is doing a nice job of raking the ball out. We had way too many balls come out, but it is a tribute to the defense and the job they are doing and it’s going to make us better offensively.”

[su_spacer size=”40″] “I wouldn’t say (Marshall) is 100 percent, but he did get more reps,” Richt said. “He got more work that I thought he would. He did get some reps, which is good for him and good for his fellow backs. It takes a little pressure of of them. Hegedus got some reps today as well, and you could tell he was fatigued before the practice was over. We were trying to be a little careful with those guys as to how many reps they got today in their first day back.”
