Well, your OL had true freshman starting last year, so one assumes their backup will be less talented older guys or also true freshmen this year. Getting Maason Smith back definitely helps the DL, but there is pretty much just youth behind the starters.

Eh, we got a good bit of transfer help. Our biggest weakness will be our secondary again but Georgia's passing offense doesn't exactly scare me this year. The clear advantage for LSU at QB and DL would make it hard for me to pick against them. Would be a good game for sure though.

Oh, man, you should be scared. I put this hot take out a few months ago, and I will stand by it now. I think this year's offense will be the deepest it has ever been under Smart. Beck will have his growing pains, but given the way the schedule worked out, all the QBs should be getting work ingame in September as well as possibly October. Beck doesn't have the quicks of a Bennett, but he may not need it with this OL, even with losing some stalwarts, mainly due to the quick passing and screen game UGA will continue to utilize.

I think the defense will also be deeper this year, especially on EDGE and LBer, even losing a superstar like Carter and the experience of Ringo and Smith. There will be better depth in the secondary than there was last year.

I think the reason UGA can take so many this class is because a whole lot of players are going to be declaring for the draft again next year.
