LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- Georgia knows an opponent inevitably will score a touchdown because that's football, and no defense is perfect despite the No. 2 Bulldogs looking impermeable right now.

Georgia (3-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference) expects plenty of shots from No. 4 Alabama and dual-threat quarterback Jalen Milroe when it visits Tuscaloosa on Sept. 28 after a bye week. The 'Dawgs enter their down time one spot lower in the AP Top 25 but feeling good about allowing just seven field goals over the past four games dating to last season.

"Our defense takes a lot of pride in how they play, our defensive staff does an incredible job," Georgia coach Kirby Smart said, noting his team's red-zone defense and limiting explosive plays as keys to their success.

"They work really hard on game planning for people. We're going to play better and better offenses, (so) we've got to get better and better. But it's pretty hard to do. I don't know if anybody in college football has been able to sustain it. It's just pretty hard to do."

Georgia's impressive run began with a 63-3 throttling of Florida State in last season's Orange Bowl, which spoke volumes about the Bulldogs' frustration over being excluded from the College Football Playoff and denying their quest for an unprecedented third consecutive national championship.

They held then-No. 14 Clemson to just 188 yards and a second-half field goal in a 34-3 opening-game rout. Georgia nearly shut out Tennessee Tech before the Golden Eagles made a last-second field goal in a 48-3 blowout.
