I was only able to watch a few minutes of the game, and the last coulpe minutes.


I have it DVR'd, but have not watched. May not watch.


Scoreboard made it look like we were doing pretty good for a while.


FYI.... the espn app used 634 MB to watch about ten minutes of total gametime. This is not consistent with what I've read about a whole game consuming about 2 gigs. I just want to throw that in there for any of you that may be wondering. 634 fricking MB. I'm over my data for this month. frick Technology.

Poor execution by our players. Eason throwing inaccurate passes two of which were intercepted. Poor snap led to a missed FG that would have been the difference in the game. Defense that did not stop GT in our redzone a single time.

Dawgs gameplan was to stop the dive and to run the ball themselves

We played like shite in the first half but found a way to tie it up. Played one of our best quarters of football of the season in the third quarter and then sprayed piping hot doodoo all over ourselves in the last 7 minutes.

Sick Naban played "Smoke on the Water" twice in the first set. And then played it again four times in the second set. I talked to the guy at the merchandise booth and he said hadn't sold a single t-shirt in 4 shows. Also, the lead singer, Eason, looked hung over and forgot the lyrics several times and just hummed along instead.

Eason ain't as advertised. I will bet a coca-cola that he winds up being moderately good and doesn't make an NFL roster after the third year or whenever it is that the salary minimum kicks you out of the league as a 3rd string QB. He was a superstar in a league that would make Metro Atlanta Private Schools look like the NFL.

There is nothing at all about the transition to the next level which would indicate the trouble with basic mechanics that Eason has....his inaccuracy is about as bad as it gets....that is pure instinct. He hasn't been helped by drops but his accuracy is horrible...hard to consistently catch balls that are thrown behind you.

I sincerely look for him to have a serious sophmore slump. He hasn't improved noticeably since the start of the season. In fact he has regressed in some areas. I have very little confidence that anyone on staff has the ability to nurture QB talent....

I hope I am wrong but I just don't see it....he has been pretty underwhelming....the only bright spot is he has been the only bright spot....under normal circumstances if there was any other ray of hope he wold be called out for his poor perfromance..

The dark lord Satan hath shone his face on the field of play. UGA's time of possession was 34:33... the numbers do not know how to lie.

Did Murray make it beyond the salary increase in the League? Eason hasn't looked as good as Murray and he hasn't looked as good as Stafford. He won't make it beyond the minimum salary increase at the next level.......

UGA can't run the ball in the red zone.

UGA can't stop the run in the red zone.

We looked good in a lot of ways. But none of those ways matter with the way the first 2 lines read.

With about 9 minutes to play, GT actually made plays and didn't shoot themselves in the foot with their passing game. That got them back in the red zone where our defense hasn't been able to stop anyone all year.

I've been very critical of Eason's timing and accuracy. Throws are almost never on time and they are often thrown behind the receiver. Those faults weren't evident in the G Day game where the QB can't be hit and they weren't evident in HS where he was never hit.

I'm hoping that Fromm will take over at some point in 2017. Fromm has been hit a lot and he still makes plays.

Who's fault is that?We certainly don't lack for talent and depth along the front 7 especially the line...it's not like we were playing OM in September.These guys are obviously experienced this late in the season.

up by 13. Fourth quarter. Ready to go in for the kill. Decided to run it up the middle then punt. 5 plays later we're up by 6.

3 minutes left in the game and Eason throws an awful pass. defense decides to take a break and let a guy score from the 15 untouched.

Ball game.

1) we lack playmakers on defense. More notably, from the OLB position (no jarvis jones, Houston, Floyd... you get the picture).

2) we lack experience on the DL. Is it 1 senior? How many juniors (1?). We are playing a ton of under-classmen. You say this doesn't matter. The fact that we are among the worst in the country at red zone defense might disagree with you (the old adage is to tally a loss for every freshman starting on the roster).

3) we lack a thumper at safety. Haven't had a good one since Shawn Williams. It is needed to be elite (especially in the red zone).

Bottom line, it is on the coaches to get us there. But the coaches can't make the plays. Playas gotta play.
