Yall match up terribly against them. Georgia has a balanced offense that will tear your secondary apart.

If we turn the ball over 5 times and this happens, we'll lose again.

At that time that was a reasonable bet.

I would like to preemptively remind yall that Mike Johnson, Antoine Caldwell, Andre Smith, Marlon Davis, and Julio Jones will not be making the trip with us this year.


True.

And neither Matthew Stafford, AJ Green, nor Knowshon Moreno will be waiting for us.

But Mark Richt will be.

Seriously, though, I won't be surprised when we get beat.

LOL! I'd wager good $$$ you said the exact same shite last year after Bama lost to Ole Miss...just so you know, even though Bama lost to OSU, it was nice to be in the playoffs!

UGA had a whole crapload of talent on that team across the board so that def can't be the only metrics used to measure a big time clash like we will see coming up.

I'm glad BAMA is opening as a dog in this game. It will be interesting to see how our players respond to it. Our defense is salty, but if our O plays like it did yesterday, I don't see how a win is even possible.

By game time, Alabama will be favored.

Bama opened as a 1 point underdog against LSU in the 2011 title game but was a 1 point favorite by gameday.

Will be interesting ot see where it settles later this week.

It looks likely Alabama will be an underdog officially for the first time in 6-7 seasons.

Vegas give 3 points to home team.

This means Bama would be favored by 2 on a neutral field, and by 5 in T-town.

This is not true, we opened as an underdog to LSU in the BSCNCG in 2011,


Actually, it is. Bama was a 2.5 point favorite in the 2011 BCS NC game.
