I did this while posting in baseball threads. Some of are are not so simple we can’t comment on spring football and watch baseball.

Kind of hard to judge with the weather at A-day, but Ashford running the read option and the new Oline…

Still curious about our secondary…




It usually takes longer to get the defense adjusted to a new way of doing things. I'm hopeful we show improvement (how the hell could we get worse?) in that department. That could potentially turn a lot of the tough loss games of last year into tough wins.

From watching Bama the last few years, I don't think "the basics" are really one of Pete's strong suits.


Bama's defenses under Golding (2018 - 2022) are significantly better than every defense we have fielded since the second expansion, except for the 2014 Landsharks.

No one has seen more of your stupid AF uga posts as I have.

Making retarded posts like this are the best you can do to avoid making more of them, though this nonsense somehow makes you look worse than you do as the football idiot.

This is evidence of you being a vol homer. Vols are never quite as good on the field as they are in your mind.

Sorry, but the Golding years at Bama were the worst Bama had ever been under Saban at executing the basics. Mental mistakes and poor tackling as far as the eye could see. You're in for a disappointment if you really think you'll improve under Pete's watch.

BK specifically said we're not looking for any starters in this transfer round, just depth at OL, safety, and LB, so it sounds pretty good to me.

Do you have any idea just how bad Rebel defenses have been since Freeze's last season? shite, even marginal improvement would be welcomed with open arms.

Conference rankings of Rebel scoring, total, and rushing defenses
2016 - 14th in scoring, 13th in total, 14th in rushing
2017 - 13th in scoring, 14th in total, 13th in rushing
2018 - 14th in all three categories (the Triple Crown!)
2019 - 11th in scoring, 12th in total, 8th in rushing
2020 - 14th in all three categories (our second Triple Crown!)
2021 - 8th in scoring, 11th in total, 12th in rushing (we tackled much better this season, thanks to DJ Durkin; half of the battle is just being near the ball, something we haven't done in years prior to this or in 2022)
2022 - 9th in scoring, 8th in total, 8th in rushing (our rankings are 11th, 9th, and 9th for conference play)

I scanned for your take on UGA but shockingly it’s absent. Are you waiting for someone to tell you what your opinion should be? Or is this another example of you have no idea what you are looking at with spring practices?

I gave you a take in a response to your post. Guess you overlooked it. Here it is again:

Some bold claims here after the way uga has pushed the vols around on both offense and defense.


You also evaded the question about your %'s for UF, SC, and Aggies like a coward would do.

UGA looks like a well rounded squad capable of winning another national title, but everyone already knew that, so there really wasnt a point to discuss it.

I quit with the Spring Game waste of time about ten years ago.

Spring Games mean absolutely nothing.

Oft times Spring Game MVPs are never heard-from again.

Many times, players in Spring Games are gone by July or August.

Sometimes, good players are unnecessarily injured in Spring Games.

Spring Games mean zilch.

... unless you're a fan, or a little kid, or a walkon perhaps, I guess. I dunno. I find no redeeming value in Spring Games.


Well said. Just hope for no major injuries.

I get the "spring games are meaningless" thing but I have one area where UGAs spring game is, indeed, meaningful...my Dad is 83 years old and he and I have spent an inordinate amount of time in my 57 years watching UGA football...and an inordinate amount of money. For at least 3 years now he has started asking me when the spring game is going to be around the middle of January LOL. He is 83....hopefully he lives another 40 years but 10 is probably a rosy outlook. It is one more UGA "game" that we get to share. For that reason alone it is, to me anyway, meaningful. From a football POV of course it is nearly meaningless...but from a man's POV who has followed UGA football since Wally Butts strode the sidelines in Athens it is another couple of hours of watching the Dawgs play football. For many of us college football is more than a game or a past time...it is the calendar of our lives and every chance to participate in any manner is time well spent....

See this is why I assumed you were the UGA village idiot. You probably really think that that was a hot take about the state of UGA football and answered the questions I posed earlier.

I you later concurred with a UGA poster that was actually participating, I guess that’s now your official UGA sanctioned “original” opinion now.

Seriously dude, stick to watching soccer with folks that don’t understand or participate in sports, they probably think you are a valuable member of the football association board.
