Georgia football is the No. 1 topic every day on DawgNation Daily — the daily podcast for fans of the national champion Georgia Bulldogs. Catch up on everything happening with UGA athletics with host Brandon Adams and the DawgNation experts as they break down the latest Georgia football recruiting news and discuss coach Kirby Smart’s quest to keep the Bulldogs on top of the college football world.

Beginning of the show: A rookie head coach going through his first season is never an easy feat, and new Oregon coach Dan Lanning’s debut against his former employer, Georgia, might be a more difficult task than most.

15-minute mark: I share a positive update from UGA coach Kirby Smart on running back Kendall Milton’s recovery from a lingering hamstring injury, and discuss more about the breakout performance Kenny McIntosh appears to have had and share audio of McIntosh discussing his outlook for the upcoming season.

20-minute mark: Former UGA wide receiver Terrence Edwards joins the show.

40-minute mark: I take a look at other SEC headlines including the looming possibility of Playoff expansion coming sooner than expected.
