You could not be more wrong about the Wrs. In fact they have been running wide arse open on everyone all season. Up until mid Oct Milroe either could not see them or deliver a accurate pass. They have 3 absolute burners, in fact Bond ran the fastest 200m in the country his Sr year of HS. Just bc they don't have the stats for you to see doesn't mean they can't do it bc they can, especially now that the scheme has been changed to suit Milroes skill set.
If Bammer can't pass vs UGA it won't be bc the WRs can't get open.

Bama has great WRs and TEs but a RB playing QB. Milroe will only throw the ball when a receiver is clearly open and he still struggles with reading defenses and intermediate passing. Milroe at QB is why I fear some of the skill talent we have will transfer.

You won't be watching him drop back that much. Rees has unleashed his flood concept passing attack the main route is a bitch to pick bc the LB or S has to decide to cover the RB. If he does Milroe takes off. If he comes up to affect Milroe he drops it over his head to the RB

georgia sucks at rushing the passer so we should be much more comfortable there.
To be honest, I think this might be a plus for UGA. They have gone for more delayed blitzes after they have a QB fairly contained in the pocket, using the spy, usually the MLB, rather than trying to blitz as much off the edge which is why they were getting killed on edge runs, because guys like Chambliss and Williams were getting pushed inside and not getting to QB before they could get outside and into space. I think the coaching staff must have realized this as well and have adjusted to what works for UGA. It doesn't lead to as many sacks, but it has lead to a lot of incomplete rushed passes, and I think that is exactly what UGA wants to dictate- put Milroe into uncomfortable passing situations while hemming him in on the edges and a spy in the middle.

You sure Bama has a better defense?
And after the 2020 and 2021 games, I doubt Georgia will grossly underestimate Bama again. It's going to either be a good game or a game that goes south quick for Bama.

What are you talking about
Everyone knows this is a rebuilding year for Georgia. Everyone been doubting us all year. Hell, we have barely been favored in any big games. The TV pundits been talking about how we fell off for months.
This 7-5 team is way over achieving. We are just enjoying the ride my boy.

Did Kirby tell you this?
Exactly. Both Kirby and Saban have watched film for decades. Neither team is the best in history or anything. Kirby's seen dudes far more elite than Milroe before and gameplanned against them. Same for Saban vs. Beck and co. Nobody's underestimating a thing at their level.
Now fans on the other hand, yeah we definitely get our chests puffed out. That's the best part of anonymous internet chat boards

With a much better defense in 2021 you guys said the same thing
Lmao please puff your chest out about guys that aren't catching balls and a qb that isn't throwing them to anybody on the 2023 bammers.
We're talking 2023 UGA vs. 2023 Bama, not the glory days of your past

Hasn't helped Georgia in the past agains 'Bammer'? Like the last time we played Bammer? That last time we played 'Bammer' and won the first of two back-to-back national titles?
And the reason we didn't play 'Bammer' last year is that you weren't even good enough to play us?
Okay.

Kirby is a great defensive coach he’s proven that. But his less than stellar defense is going to face a quarterback they’re not used to defending against, a triple option quarterback who is big, strong, very elusive and extremely fast.
I got news for Ga fans, having just one defender even a really good one spy on Milroe, that alone will not get it done. Milroe will simply embarrass him, elude him, outrun him or overpower him. And if you make the mistake of leaving a receiver downfield one on one, he knows exactly where and how to deliver a beautiful deep ball.
Milroe is now being used like Daniels, he’s a triple option threat that can hurt you on every down. And if you are not the one having to defend against him, he’s very fun to watch.

Yea but the SEC championship game is a home game for them.
How so? Is it a home game for Alabama when they play Auburn at Jordan-Hare? Your logic is lacking somehow.

Who is underestimating Milroe?
I mean if you are talking about the fanbase, the good news is none of them will play one down in Atlanta.
If you are talking about the staff and players, please give us more inside info that I'm sure you have obtained.

Bama is weak defensively in the middle of the field. UGA will kill them with TEs over the middle.
In an effort to change this from a weak troll thread to an honest discussion....
Why do you think this is? Your secondary is loaded. Is it the scheme being run leaving the middle vulnerable or what do you think?

And we have news for you…. we aren’t scrub arse LSU. He will make some plays but Bama isn’t scoring more than 20-24 points. We will score 30.

He's nowhere near Daniels as a passer. I think he's greatly improved and he may be able to beat us, but the much more important part of the game for Bama will be to stop our offense from gutting them the way Texas did IMO.
Since 2017, the QBs who have QB'd wins over Kirby are named Stidham, Hurts, Tua, Hilinski, Burrow (2 times), Mac Jones, Trask, and Young.
Hilinski is the outlier on that list as someone that hasn't made an actual NFL roster. We had a very crappy offense that year. The rest have been all been on active NFL rosters for three seasons or more (excluding Bryce who obviously will be). That's two overall no. 1 picks, two additonal first round picks and two second round picks in that list. 5 Heisman finalists and two winners as well.
Is Milroe in the league with those high tier guys? Most would say no. Generally speaking, it's the ones that can make most of the throws in and outside the pocket that really hurt Kirby. Hooker was good at throwing from the pocket and good at running. Was not good at throwing outside if it was an off script play.
We're not as good on the DL as in past years. But like last year, we're starting to generate more pressure as the season wears on. Has Bama's OL improved in pass pro enough that our pass rush can be contained?
Can our Ol give Beck the stellar protection he's had all year vs. the best front seven we will have faced to that point?
Our offense has been better the past two seasons than it was in any year before that under Kirby. We haven't faced Bama in that time. Nick and their defense (even with Pete) gave us fits. Will that continue?
It's gonna be fun to find out. Can't wait. I'd call it a 50/50 game.
Edit: I forgot about Ehlinger. He hasn't been that close to securing a starting job as most on that list, but he also has remained active on a roster for multiple years in the NFL.

I think you'll hear a lot about how athletic he is from that staff, but if they don't appreciate how he has come along as a passer they will get beat.
