Georgia football's defensive line unit ranked outside of one college football experts' rankings.
There's a saying in football that games are won in the trenches. That's exactly what Georgia's football program has believed in ever since head coach Kirby Smart arrived. The Bulldogs place a priority on making sure they land some of the best talent the nation has to offer at both offensive and defensive lines every year. That approach has shown up on the football field over the years.and six defensive linemen drafted.
During the 2021 and 2022 seasons, Georgia's defensive line was littered with NFL talent—names like Jordan Davis, Devonte Wyatt, Jalen Carter and Travon Walker to name a few. The team took a bit of a step back in that position group after the 2022 season, which is to be expected when a program loses that much talent upfront over a two-year time span.
Now leading into the 2024 college football season, one college football expert does not believe Georgia will have a top-five defensive line unit.and he had Georgia listed at seventh. The teams ahead of them, in order, were: Texas A&M, Nebraska, Michigan, Utah, Penn State and Ohio State. Georgia has a lot of names returning on the defensive line this year. Mykel Williams is the most notable name and seems to be a shoo-in as a first-round pick for the 2025 draft class. Nazir Stackhouse and Warren Brinson both elected to return for another season instead of declaring for the draft. Georgia will also be expecting big seasons out of players like Christen Miller, Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, Jamaal Jarrett and transfer Xavier McLeod.
