re: I think Georgia is going to beat the stuffing out of Tennessee

Bama has a poorly coached defense. Their entire team has been rather undisciplined much of the year.

this is why tsio was what it was this year.

Georgia is the least penalized team in league play (32/5 games) and UTK is the second most (67/4 games) behind - you guessed it - Alabama (69/5 games).

Dawgs are a more disciplined team and though not as 'explosive' downfield with WRs as vols - UGA characteristically has not moved backwards on offense due to flags - nor leave its defense on the field due to penalties. Georgia defense has committed 10 penalties that gave the opponent a 1st down. UTk defense has committed 20 penalties resulting in a 1st down for its opponents.

discipline is magnified in a game like Saturday's - especially in front of what will be a raucous Sanford crowd that hasn't had a worthwhile protagonist to torment yet this season. that changes this weekend. advantage Georgia.
