The UMass offense however, did well. The Minutemen moved the ball all game. We had nearly 400 yards of offense. Georgia's defense had given a total of 49 points at home for the season. The previous high for a visiting team was 13 by Vanderbilt.
Then there was Andy Isabella. Quote from the Georgia post game notes:
Sophomore QB #11 Jake Fromm
On UMass wide receiver Andy Isabella, who caught 15 passes for 219 yards and two touchdowns...
“I mean, what a player. He did a phenomenal job. It didn’t matter who we put on him, he was finding ways to get separation and get open. He made some plays and I don’t know if he dropped a ball. He did awesome. It seemed like every time they threw it, there he was again catching another ball. Great player, really exciting, really fun to watch."
