@ Tennessee
vs. Missouri
@ Vanderbilt
OPEN
vs. Florida
vs. Appalachian State
@ Auburn
vs. Kentucky
@ Tech

I would say Florida, but they did lose Easley and Driskel. Who gives us the most fits and maybe even an upset alert? The only other game I can maybe see is @ Vandy, but I think we will spank them like we did last year.

To be honest ... I don't see anyone on that list that really scares me.

Florida will always scare me because they love to frick up a season for us like no other. My biggest concern is another 02 type game where they ruin another national title for us. Other than that, the nerds could give us a real chall....... nvm, couldn't finish that one with a straight face.

Florida. Lost their best guy on defense though in Easley.

Florida will still be a tough test regardless of rankings or number of wins and losses.

Toughest opponent will be complacency.

Dawgs should run the table and will if they stay focused. Seems obvious, but as the season rolls along it gets easier to believe your own press and just show up.

Florida and Auburn have ruined many a GA season.

Honestly? Tie between Florida and UTk. Second would be Auburn.

Florida - Because I will never expect a win in Jacksonville ever.

UTk (or UGA) - Because while the team we're playing may not be much to write home about, playing in Knoxville after the emotional roller coaster we've just lived through is going to be one hell of a challenge. So, really, it's more UGA is it's own hardest opponent.

Auburn - Let's say we are winning out going back into Auburn, AL at the end of the year. We get one more former UGA QB with a chip on his shoulder in a hostile environment. Dawgs should have lenty to win, but it will require some actual effort to do it.

UTk worries me a lot. In Knoxville, they have nothing to lose, they are going to be wearing new uni's (supposedly, fired up team and crowd).

1. Florida - only giving up 53 yards/game rushing and #2 nationally in total defense
2. UT - Yep, upset special. We might think we can just show up to win and then find ourselves in a big mess in a hostile stadium. UT's chance to revive their program.
3. Auburn - same as above except historically we don't have trouble getting up for Auburn.

Fla because they went from a statue of a qb to a mobile one.

CMR owns Auburn, it's Florida because they have the SEC's best defense and i think they upgraded at Qb.

UTk is not a good team at all. If the dawgs crap the bed vs UTk then they have either been playing way over heir heads or SCe and LSU are not the wins we think they are. They struggled against south Bama, got dismantled vs oregon, and were sloppy as shite vs the gators. They are not good and UGA should beat them soundly. Good teams stay focused even off of a big win.

UF has some some tough games between here and the OCP. The hogs are a toss up and we will watch them probably take a loss in tiger stadium before then

We're in a great spot for them. The schedule softens considerably from here. Theyre not scary enough to look ahead to but defense is obvioulsy stout enough to start scheming for in coming weeks

Dawgs 24-10

Game never in question

Florida. Losing Driskel was actually a blessing. Murphy is a legit dual-threat QB and much better than Driskel from what I have seen so far. Florida's offense instantly looked better when Murphy took the helm after Driskel went down with an injury. Florida's defense is one of the best so it's likely to be a tough low scoring game. My guess is our defense will be good enough to keep us ahead in the game.

Also, don't overlook Missouri and Auburn. Franklin has Mizzou's offense clicking and obviously Malzahn has Auburn's offense back on track. It does appear that our defense is better than those of either team though.
