I think the key to Crow's comment may have been "to get by". Unlike some recent years, we didn't have enough talent this year to win games half asleep. We could have "gotten by" those games in the Stafford or Murray years.

Or maybe that's not what he meant, but hey, that's what I think.

That's basically the idea. It's not realistic to think that you'll play up to your talent level every week, but you have to expect that teams with less talent will get up to play UGA because of the perception that they're less talented. It's simple psychology.

UGA isn't talented enough to withstand that consistently right now.

What? Under no circumstance should UGA have lost all three games to South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia Tech. This is especially when you had Nick Chubb doing what he was doing.

Bama lost to a good, but not great Ole Miss team this year and then the next week eeked by Arkansas 15-14. They won that game on nothing more than the talent gap. After Bama got through that stretch, they got things rolling.

That was our USC game... the difference is Bama only gave up 14. That game was a clear display of how a team playing flat wins with superior depth, talent, and defense.
