[su_spacer size=”20″] Last week, Georgia played 19 freshmen in their game versus Louisiana-Monroe, but the game was shortened due to lightning in the 4th quarter. However, Coach Richt said they would have probably played a couple of more freshmen if the game had continued to run its course.

We probably would have played a couple of more if we had a little more time. If we would have finished that game, we had some plans to put a couple of other guys in offensively. I think that is a couple of wide receivers that didn’t get in that would have gotten in.

[su_spacer size=”40″] Coach Richt was asked if the coaching staff plans to utilize and play as many freshman as they did against Louisiana-Monroe in Saturday’s game against Vanderbilt:

Well, we want to play as many guys as possible that we feel like are ready play and that deserve to play.
