How can yall continue to assert that you have a great defense that will stop Florida?


My prediction for the UGA/UF game is 42-28, UGA. Very similar to last year (as Georgia's defense is).

Every matchup is different, and Demps/Rainey are a whole lot better matchup for us than Scott and LSU's OL are (especially when Ellerbe was out as he won't be for the UF game).

Demps/Rainey had 21 carries against LSU. I doubt they get more than 10 against UGA. They will be put away pretty quickly with Harvin then getting most of the hand-offs.

How do you explain Holliday only having 3 yards on 3 carries against UGA's awful defense (on a day when Scott was running all over us)?

Holliday, he doesn't ever get too many more carries that 3-5 a game. Also, he is more of a big threat back. When he was in the game, your defense locked in on him. Very seldom does Trindon go into the game on offense and not touch the ball, it shouldn't be very hard to defend.
On the other hand, demps and company are constantly in the game and have a veteran QB that can run.
In an unbiased opinion, do you really think Florida will only score 28? You haven't kept a topped rank SEC team under that number this year and Florida has by far the best offense that you have played. I just think this is wishful thinking of your part. Last year's game can also be tossed out the windonw. Florida did not have a running game last year other than Tebow. This year they do.

One last note, I was feeling the same way you were about UF befor LSU played them, and, like it or not, I think UGA and LSU have similar defenses. Both are prone to the big play, and both make alot of mistakes. The personnel strengths might be different but the bottom line is the same.

I honestly think 44 - 31 UF with UGA scoring a TD late to make it closer. I just didn't see anything in UGA's defense in either this game of Alabama that can slow down the florida team of the last two and a half games
