We can’t run.
True. 155 yards per game is abysmal. However, I do think Whitlow is very capable of a good game when he is healthy. 22 carries for 104 yards against LSU. 8 for 88 yards against Miss State. 19 for 170 against Ole Miss. Most of the year we either haven't been running him, or he has been injured, but he is our only chance at a running game.
quote:
We have been gashed by the run.
Not true, although last week was a bit concerning. 134 yards per game is good for 34 nationally and 6th in the SEC, right behind Kentucky. Yards per attempt Auburn is 23rd nationally and 4th in the SEC. I think our defense struggles more with the threat of a running QB in the backfield. More than half of the rushing yards for Miss State were from their QB, something we shouldn't have to worry about with Fromm. Last week Auburn struggled with some of the zone read concepts.
quote:
They can run.
100% true. Stopping the run was the key to beating them last year and will be the key to us having any chance on Saturday.
quote:
They stop the run.
That is actually the weakness of their defense. They are worse than Auburn in every key defensive rush statistic. They have given up 10 rushing touchdowns on the year and over 4 yards per attempt.
quote:
We will need plus three turnovers and several big plays to make it a game.
Winning the turnover margin is key. We have actually had more takeaways than them this season, but also had more turnovers our self. The biggest key to the game though will be finding any semblance of an offense. If we can keep TOP close and find a way to get more than 350 yards of offense we will keep it close.

35-14 UGA with our two touchdowns coming from either special teams or defense. Regardless of the outcome I intend to talk as much shite as possible because frick Georgia and it's shitty fanbase.

Auburn 31- UGA 24
If we are going to beat UGA it’s going to involve us playing to our full potential and playing a near perfect offensive game like nothing we have seen this year.
We come out throwing the ball first, successful screens to Davis, intermediate routes to Seth Williams, and hitting a deep pass or two to Slayton. Offensive line has to give Stidham time in the pocket for any of this to happen. Let the pass open up the run, and a healthy Boobie can have some explosive plays. Stidham throws for 250 yards, Whitlow runs for 100, we don’t turn the ball over.
Score 2 touchdowns in each half and play a flawless offensive game against a beatable defense. If we do that I think we lead 28-24 in the 4th and tack on a FG to go up 7. Defense holds on by a thread at the end for the win.
Or, back to reality, Stidham gets sacked 8 times, Whitlow gets 8 carries for 50 yards, and the defense slowly, but surely wears down and we lose 34-13.
