Look fricktard.

I feel better about this team than any recent team. A damn good bunch of young players that can play with anyone.

No need to get personal about it, idiot.

It is what it is.

You're the moron who said we'd be left out of the playoffs with the exact same situation we made it last year. So who's the fricktard?

I feel better about our team after this loss than at any point in the DeBoer era to date.

Georgia QB played a perfect game, they got every possible call and bounce, and still our brand new QB had us in a position to win if not for an egregious call.

I thought Bama was very physical and outplayed Georgia most of the game. They made a couple of more plays at key points and won. These are two playoff teams who can both go on a run and win it all. I like Bama in a rematch no matter where it’s played.

Keelon started off rattled in the first half. He ended the game battle tested against a defense as goood as it gets. I doubt he ever looks rattled like that again.

I’ll second this. I was worried Georgia would overwhelm us physically. I love what I’m seeing in toughness from this Bama squad. I don’t always love Grubb’s play calling, but sometimes he looks like a genius. I think there's a chance for something special this year if everything gels.

But Georgia much better on defense


I'm not sure this is true.

Uga had at least 45 yards of penalties not called on defenders. One non-call puts BAMA inside the 20 yard line 1st & 10 with a real chance to win the game. One knocked out our playmaker. One would have erased a bone-headed gimmick play failure.

Uga is good, but with that kind of assistance it isn't clear they are better than BAMA.

They only out-rushed BAMA by 48 yards. I think more 17 would've made a real difference. Gotta get him the ball more or some more designed qb runs.

Held uga to 20.
Won the turnover battle.
Put BAMA in a position to win the game. Rico got run through so he wouldn't catch that pass. It was an intentional DPI that wasn't called.

C'mon. Just stop.

Yes a loss is never good. The margin of error is thin now.

Turnovers were 1 to 1 so no, they didn't win the turnover battle. Their 4th & 5th string running backs averaged 7 yds a carry and they had almost 500yds of offense. So yeah, the defense sucks

I think you have to give UGA’s OL some credit.

The Defense doesn’t suck. They just need to figure out a replacement for Lee and get a little more stout against the run up the middle.

They only gave up 20 points. Offense should be able to put up 21

This, same for me. Am I being delusional? Hope not, I still feel good about the team.

I think it helps Russell a lot. Georgia threw the kitchen sink at him and there were still a good amount of bright spots to be seen.

It doesn’t really help Georgia at all, considering Keelon will have seen just about every defense and road environment by then and what challenge does TAMU, Tennessee or LSU bring to the table? All of them suck. It’s just Georgia, Alabama and maybe Texas if they lock in. I don’t think Texas with Arch is a top 10 team at all. They have a top 5 defense but their team is horribly built.

Gunnar Stockton on any other team like Ole Miss or LSU would be very average. I’d equate him to 2008 JPW where he’ll get very far, probably run into a Miami or so, but superior talent and scheme similar to Tebow will overcome the great line play and play action.

2027 being the year seems more and more likely, but it depends on how much Keelon Russell gets better every week. Georgia being so early is probably a blessing in disguise.

No, you’re not being delusional. Keelon is going to be the best Bama qb ever by the time he’s gone.

This team is physical. They held up on both sides of the ball at the lines against Georgia. Shore up the run defense in the middle and get a replacement for Lee at corner. This team will make some noise in the playoffs

So giving my opinion on what might happen makes me a **** ? (you know we can say a-hole here? Maybe I am).

I personally think we will lose another game during the regular season and no possibly GA again (and I think we are equal to them - this game solidified that in my mind).

I hope I am wrong and we win out to another championship, but damn…I think some of you guys have crimson colored glasses on and can’t stand a comment that is different. It’s really not that deep and maybe some of you should go touch grass.

It is what it is.
