2015 game was not 2 teams playing well. It was shitastic Offense on both teams.


Clouded thinking? Here is a great example of that.

That defense was elite that year. It was probably the best defense Pinkel ever had. It was a top 5 national defense depending on the metrics you use. UGA was top 10. The offenses were not elite but both offenses were capable. those defenses were just on fire that night.

Our bye week couldn’t have come at a better time. We are nowhere as deep as uga and we need everyone healthy and it appears Schrader and Rakestraw will be. I believe after fla, uga might be a bit beat up. I think we could win this but to say it would have to be close and no dumb mistakes like excessive penalties is an understatement. 24-23 mizzou

UGA was 5-3 in the SEC that year and he got fired that year. The Mizzou offense was the worst I have seen since I started caring in 78. Here was the points scored that year:
34 vs SEMO high for the year
27 vs Arkansas St
9 vs UConn
13 vs Kentucky
24 vs USC
3 vs Florida
6 vs UGA
3 vs Vandy
13 vs Mississippi St
20 vs BYU
8 vs Tenner
3 vs Arky.

Yes the defense played extremely well that year but it was hardly “last time it was really a fair fight and each team playing well”. Neither team played well or did well in 2015. Facts don’t lie.

2015 was one of the worst offenses we've had in my lifetime of watching UGA (2019 being one of the others). Schottenheimer was the worst coordinator hire at the time that I'd seen us make, I don't know of "abysmal" is an accurate enough description. And don't think I'm taking anything away from Missouri's defense here, I'm just saying our offense was woefully bad. Startign withe the aformentioned Missouri game, we put up the folloiwng totals the rest of the regular season: 9, 3, 27, 13, 23 (in overtime against ga southern), 13. That is pathetic. The fact we won 10 games is more a testament to the quality of schedule we played and having a solid jeremy pruitt defnese.
