How do you guys feel about the rest of our regular season games?

@MSST - This feels like a BAD matchup for the other bulldogs, but a road game in the SEC, especially with those cowbells, isn't a rent-a-win. We opened as 16.5 point favorites.

@UK - Honestly, I have no clue what to think about Kentucky. I've watched some of their games, but their complete collapse vs TN felt odd. I still feel like this is a victory. Also, Will Levis gets way more praise than I feel he deserves. He may very well be a top NFL draft pick due to measurables, but the hype seems unwarranted.

GT - Yeah, no, this is a bloodbath again. They're just not there. It feels like they improved immediately after sacking Collins, but they're still not a good program in 2022.

I think we drop one of Kentucky or MSU unfortunately. But wouldn't really affect us much, we would still control our destiny.

Just think it would be insane to go 12-0 again. Doesn't happen that often, even Bama in their prime years didn't do it often.

The home for CMRPTSD is open and still accepting patients.

The next three games we get to flex and let our guys show out and win college footballs best awards.

They should be amped up just for the ability to eat.

Just my opinion boys, no need to get your panties in a wad. It's really rare to go 12-0, much less in back to back years.

Ok that's fine and all but that has nothing to do with how this actual team actually matches up with the 2 teams we're about to play. Yopu coudl flip a coin Heads 100 times in a row and regardless of how utterly crazy and improbably that is, it's still a 50/50 chance on that next flip. The past is irrelevant. You are sayign that you think we are inferior, whether by talent or coaching, to either MSu or UK which is just insane. It's not about getting panties in a wad, it's about calling out how ridiculous the prediction is. Might as well predict us to lose to tech while you're at it

Yeah I get what you're saying.

Can we really go 12-0? That just seems too good to be true even though all signs point to yes.

Same as it ever was. MSU a little concerning just because of style of offense. Kentucky never concerns me because they play like we do with less imagination and talent.

It's a definite possibility. Will we? Guess we will see. However, its heartwarming to think that we will be even better next year.

Ah yes, because the better team always wins and upsets never happen. Come on bro, that's not what I'm saying at all. I just think it's likely we drop one of the next two. Doesn't mean I think we are inferior in any way.

Have you seen those two teams?

MS State went to OT with Auburn yesterday at Home

UK has a massive Oline problem and should have probably lost to Mizz if not for a crazy punt scenario

We will go 12-0, win SECG and then who knows in the playoffs.

However, given the amount of time in between, we get to rest up and I put our game planning up against any team in the country right now.

The plan for TN was nothing short of brilliant.

I have. Do you guys not know about upsets? I'm not saying either of those teams are better than UGA. But upsets happen all of the time.

I suppose the team could become complacent and drop one of these. I haven’t seen anything about them though that causes me to believe they have a lack of discipline. I think they win these three for sure.

Agreed.

Night game with cowbells could effect communication and OL (are we healthy?).

And Leach can scheme guys open against man coverage if we get caught on a blitz.

We should roll through them. But there are ways that a slow start offense and a mistake on defense let's them hang around and allow the crowd to continue to influence our protections.

Kentucky doesn't have the offense. No way we drop that one. MSU could happen though.

Well of course they do, but have you seen the match up predictor?

MS ST. has like a 16% chance and 10% chance of beating us.

That is nowhere near enough to say that it's likely the upset will happen.

I am excluding a breakdown in game of 4 turnovers by GA and all kinds of unforeseen things that are exceptions.
