What is the recipe for a win? I think whomever wins the LOS will come out on top. Their defense is very good but if the OL gives Mac time to find the open guy we will be hard to contain.

Their OL is very good too so our DL will have a hard time occupying blocks. They are probably gonna put some points on the board but I like us in a high scoring game.

Key to the game is not letting Bennett XVIII get ahead of the chains. That means stopping the run and putting them in third and long. He doesn’t worry me if he has to play behind schedule all night.

On the flip side, it means the O needs to come out hot and score a few quick TDs so UGA can’t dictate the pace of the game.

My hope as well. If we can jump on them early and make them play catch up then you have to like our chances.

Feed Najee as much as possible. Need to keep their defense off balanced. Also on offense, watch out for them trying to force fumbles. Especially with Waddle always getting YAC.

Defensively, shut down the run and force Bennet to make plays.

Finally, don't punt. Not because that means Alabama goes 3 and out, but because our punter sucks.

We will need to have a couple of turnovers fall in our lap. We do not get off of the field on third down and I do not see that changing.

I think we can win the game but will need some breaks.

Unfortunately, that’s when our defense is at its worst.

Our defense has to tackle and match their physicality.

For Bama O vs UGA D, it comes down to Mac. Can UGA bring pressure to disrupt those comfortable pockets he has had all year? If so, how does it affect his accuracy and decision making? That will be the difference in that matchup.

But, the game comes down to Bama D vs UGA O. UGA should want to control the ball to keep Bama O on the sideline. Trying to get into a shootout will wear out their D and cancel out the size/athleticism and experience they have on that side of the ball. Bama's D has to get off the field on 3rd downs. Bama has to protect the middle of field and also pressure Bennett; he has been a 60% passer over the last couple of games and was only pressured about 22% of the time on 3rd down going into the UT game. He has a quick release and makes good decisions, so Bama needs to confuse him in coverage and get to him to disrupt decision making.

Mack is going to have to play the best game he has ever played. We're not playing the little sisters of the poor this week. UGA is by far the best team we've played or will play this season. We're going to learn what Bama is tonight.

Good tackling and minimizing mental errors.

I have come to consider myself something of a beer connossieur the last few years, but we always seem to play well when I drink 16oz Miller Lites.

So, guess who is buying a six pack of 16oz Miller Lite today?

Monty Rice may not play tonight due to a foot injury. I believe he makes the calls for the Georgia defense.
