It really looks like the only reason we win is because of Bryce at quarterback. It takes a Superman to mask how bad ,and average, the rest of the team is. And when you can't coach them up you get this team.

This was simply a case of law of averages catching up with us after 15 years.

This is what I was afraid of before the game. Having Bryce made this a game and almost a victory.

I cannot believe how bad our defense is. They couldn’t stop the run or pass. How can our DBs be so clueless we have all 5 or near 5 stars back there.

Most of us thought this would be a transcendent unit. They have disappointed majorly.

Bingo

we are what you saw tonight. A undisciplined team that makes mistake after mistake. They need to spend less time on working on their flex.

I will say this is Bobs defense… besides Bryce and Gibbs, we are not elite( although good ) in any other areas on offense… even though his schemes suck arse

Come on Bear this was clearly a defensive defeat . Even though the whole team contributed with awful plays. Defense were defeated every which way.

No this was not that at all - this was a case of terrible defense (we gave up 52 frickING POINTS) and subpar OL play. Our run blocking was awful and pass protection was worse. Without Bryce we are blown the frick out.

It has to be coaching or we really missed on their supposed talent level of our DB's. And where was that bad arse pass rush we have? Really frustrating game.

I just don’t see elite talent and leadership like past teams.

Even if you take away the bad calls, we are one of the worst teams in penalties and penalty yards.

That to me, shows there isn’t a big discrepancy in talent between us and our opponents.

Add on everyone else has upgraded coaching and more parity in recruiting, we just aren’t beating people with our name.

Ultimately, it’s on coaching because you either missed on player evaluations or your program is failing to instill the proper discipline.

We've only lost to Tennessee once in 16 years but (in the words of Bobby Knight) I'M SICK AND frickING TIRED OF IT. This is unacceptable on every single level that is conceivable to each person and their own fundamental understanding of quantum physics.

This is humiliating. Our fans deserve better and our players deserve better.

Is Nick afraid to correct players after mistakes? I did see him get int #34 when he made his stupid azz blunder but that is pretty much it.

If UGA beats UT like a drum you know the program is in a terrible direction

They will not beat them like a drum. They may even lose.
High scoring offenses are their kryptonite.

Yeah contrary to what some of the homers here believed last week, Tennessee’s offense is actually pretty damn good. Could finish the season top 10 nationally in yards and points. I think they have a solid chance of beating UGA

UT is going to score on UGA. If your pass rush can't get there in a hurry then you better have some all world DB's with quickness and ball skills. UT is using every patch of that 53 yard wide field on every play.

Pitt gave up less yards than us against them. Does Pitt have better players than we do? This is definitely a coaching/scheme issue

How do you know that Pitt doesn't have better DB's than Bama?
