Faton Bauta Announced as Georgia's Starting QB vs. Florida

Georgia rolls into Week 9 with a new look. Before the Bulldogs' game against No. 11 Florida on Saturday afternoon, junior quarterback Faton Bauta was announced as the starter on the scoreboard at EverBank Field, according to the Athens Banner-Herald's Marc Weiszer:

In a game that will decide the top spot in the SEC East, Georgia looks like it is through with the inconsistencies of normal starter Greyson Lambert for now. Lambert has had five games in which he's thrown for under 200 yards and three games without a touchdown. 

Bauta last attempted a pass in a Georgia uniform last season, going 4-of-5 for 48 yards in three games. This season, he has seen action only as the holder for extra points, according to ESPN.com. 

If he can manage to orchestrate a win and nab first place in the SEC East, then Georgia fans should expect to see plenty more of him throughout the remainder of the season.
