ATLANTA — When Georgia trailed Missouri 17-9 in the third quarter Saturday night, it looked like the kind of early season test the Bulldogs have often failed in recent seasons. Georgia fans don't have to be reminded of two straight losses to South Carolina, a September road loss to Mississippi State in 2010 or season-opening losses at Oklahoma State in 2010 and to Boise State last season. Those losses left Georgia in early season ruts.
