WATCH: Tykee Smith Post Game Press Conference, Gives Major Praise to Glenn Schumann

Georgia football defensive back Tykee Smith spoke with the media following the Bulldogs' win against Ball State and gave a major shoutout to defensive coordinator Glenn Schumann.

The Georgia football program has officially earned their second victory on the season as they defeated Ball State by a final score of 45-3. It is the program's 19th straight victory, which dates all the way back to their semifinal win against Michigan in the college football playoff.

After a scoreless first quarter, Georgia's offense was able to find its rhythm thanks to three turnovers that were forced by the defense. The Bulldogs then went on to score 31 points in the second quarter alone while also keeping Ball State out of the end zone for the entire first half of the football game.

Carson Beck got his second start of his career and looked the part of an SEC quarterback. Outside of one interception that was caused by a tipped ball on a deep throw, Beck distributed the football efficiently and helped lead Georgia's offense to a strong showing on the day. Beck finished the game with 283 passing yards, two touchdowns, and a 77 percent completion rate.

As per usual, Georgia's defense took care of business and shut down Ball State's offense from the jump. Malaki Starks forced an interception, Chaz Chambliss intercepted a ball after being kicked up in the air by a Ball State wide receiver, and Tykee Smith came up with an interception of his own as well. Georgia was not able to pitch their first shutout of the season as Ball State kicked a field goal in the fourth quarter, but it doesn't take away from their overall performance.

Tykee Smith spoke with the media following today's game, and he dropped a nugget about Glenn Schumann that occurred during the game. Here is what he had to say:
