He might be the best version of himself we’ve seen behind that o-line but he still doesn’t worry me.

He has a little more pressure to perform

He really likes to drop way back and take a sack. That’s what we know.

Wonder if he ever manned up and took care of his bastard child that he reportedly tried not to claim.

It's an advantage for Oregon because he's better than any qb on our roster and he has SEC experience.

It's an advantage for Georgia because he's very average.

If given a clean pocket, he can be a great QB. He's never had a clean pocket.

Some players handle pressure better than others. Bo (despite his immense athleticism) appears to handle pressure below average.

But players can improve. We will have to see in a few saturdays.

He's average until he's not. Three years is a pretty big sample size. That said, I hope he turns a leaf and I will root for his progression.

He's going to have a lot of good targets, a veteran line and we finally have 4/5 serviceable running backs. He doesn't have to carry this team.

He will play well at the start then get frustrated and start pressing his throws like the Bo we know and love

More of a function of us starting the game in base, bend dont break.

Once we get exotic, he will fold.

IMO, part of Bo Nix's problem was being an Auburn QB named Nix. They had such ridiculous expectations for him that he never had a chance to live up to.

He probably does well when it's scripted.

Outside of Seth Williams, Bo hasn't had very big targets at the skill spots. He will get some help there too.

Last year he had a half dozen good passes dropped or we would’ve been in trouble early. And he looked like Houdini against LSU. Now I’m starting to get nervous…

I think he will do well in the right system for him and if he gets time

Oregon has top 10 composite talent that was young and injured last year. I personally think too many Georgia fans are too sure of themselves. I am not predicting an Oregon upset but there's definitely a path to victory and most Georgia fans don't see it.

Yes, the bus could break down on the way to the stadium and the traffic jam could prevent abo6ther bus to come get them though the uga nation would still get the boys there one at a time.

The most likely path to victory for Oregon has your defense zigging when they should be zagging. That, and Oregon winning the turnover battle.

Bo Nix against LSU and Arkansas needs to show up to bring this full circle.
