I will jizz all over the place for about 10 consecutive days if what deeprig9 predicts comes true. However, the thing people aren't talking about much is the line play on Georgia's side. Your o-line is, in fact, completely healthy, and far and away better than anything Mizzou has come remotely close to playing this year. Even if your running game is close to non-existent due to the RBs being out, its still not a given that we can get to Murray at all. Our DEs have played well, but against teams like Vandy, Indiana and Toledo.
Usually, the best Mizzou teams of the Pinkel era run tino their waterloo in the trenches. The elite teams can still push you around and that in turn dicates everything else that happens on the field. Our 2007 team that went 12-2 could very easily have played in the national title game if it could have beaten the Oklahoma Sooners, and at the skill positions we matched them well. But we got mauled in the trenches by OU both times we played them that year and that was all that mattered for the outcome of those games.
I just can't see Mizzou being able to do much of anything against UGA using a 3 man front. Even a third string RB who is new to the position will probably wind up with gaping holes created by your o-line that he can exploit. And I think your d-line will put more pressure on our QB James Franklin than he has seen all year, and I don't know how well he will respond.
Realizing I may have gotten hooked here in given a super serial response to OP. But whether it was bait or not, the above is still what I think will the game's main actual storylines.
