Reasonable expectations for our Dawgs this year...

Hope you're wrong too, , but I could absolutely see it happening.

Have no idea on wins. All depends on Defense to me. I think Mason and O will be ok... As far as stats are concerned


Mason:3000+ yrds, 28 TD's, 10 ints
Gurley: 1700 yrds, 16 rush Td's, 6 recieving


I don't think we have one receiver get 1000 yards but I think we will has multiple get 600+, I think Floyd leads the SEC in sacks and Lo Carter makes huge impression.

I would says the same thing about wins, it's just so unpredictable.

I like your stats on Mason a lot.

You have Gurley going off yardage-wise which I obviously like.
but I believe it can absolutely happen without doubt with his superior talent.

And you are right, we distribute the ball too evenly amongst our receivers to seemingly ever have a thousand yard receiver.

And Floyd will have a monstrous season this year without doubt, he's just too talented. While I've heard Carter has hit the ground running.

I think Lorenzo Carter will have a season like Aldon Smith did his rookie year in the NFL. Not as many many sacks (13.5) but the same effect in being a situational pass rusher who is relentless at getting after the quarterback and makes the same kind of impact taking advantage all of his opportunities.

15-0 Chrystal Football Hombre!

Something about this alter sounds so familiar...

I have history on my side....what you got?

I think 10-2 is reasonable. There are a few unknowns at this point.

Agreed 11-1 would be better but that would be an unreasonable expectation.

1. Our secondary is depleted, so who will step up? Hopefully, the front 7 will alleviate the need for the secondary to be great. My football coach always told me, a great pass rush makes a great cover corner. Also, who plays safety?

I like what CP's doing and saying building a secondary who will not be beaten by missed assignments and lack of discipline. I would hope starters aren't mentioned up until game time like Alabama does no sense in giving the enemy information.

One thing not mentioned was tackling issues in the past it was bad, bad, bad, last year over all and that shite hopefully will get fixed because it cost UGA games.

Offense hey that shite works like a machine and hopefully the special teams come in strong.

New S&C coach hopefully a better program with better dietary needs finally taken seriously and as a science not witchcraft.

10-2 not unreasonable we could surely be tested by SC & UF and UT hates losing to UGA.

I just want to see a Dawg team in September who is almost as good as they would be by the end of October.

Well I agree with this completely!

When it comes to the defense though, I think we are going to have a nasty front seven that will be able to put alot of pressure on the QBs. I feel like we are going to see alot more SACs out of Floyd, Jenkins, our resident Pastor of Disaster and LO C. Oh and BTW he is going to make more than an impression. He's going to shake things up in a good way. I think we could realistically expect to see 7-10 sacs a piece from these guys.

And this is why CJP will be able to keep his rep untarnished. Our front seven is going to take the pressure off the secondary and give them time to gel. So hopefully by the middle of our season these guys are hitting on all cylinders. Also keep in mind no team we meet has a QB with a ton of experience with the exeption of Auburn. This is good for our defense.

I expect to see our secondary surprise us with turnovers due to the former and because I feel like there are going to be some gems begin to shine that we did not see last season. Such as JJ Greene, Reggie Wilkerson, and Damien Swann. These guys are going to make at least 3 or 4 INT a piece this year.

I know I know your thinking HEY KOOL-AID!

If we can keep our guys healthy on both sides especially the offense we may be lined up to do great things this season. Our schedule lines up pretty good and I think our guys knew they were better than the record shows from last year. We just had alot of injuries. They are going to want to come out and show the nation this year.

I think UGA fans need to be patient on the defense. It's a work in progress. Those who set unrealistic expectations get let down the most. I look for the defense to improve slightly in all categories in year one. It's going to take 2-3 years before CP can get his players to really produce what is expected. The defense being disciplined and being in the right position to make plays will improve a 8-5 team to a 9 win team, or 10 at best.
