re: UGA loses its two best players on offense

Not the loss folks think it is. UGA needs a functioning offense to support their deep defense to win but they don’t rely on it. Front 7 depth is where UGA wins games. Just trotting out fresh guys when the O is worn out is the Kirby way.

While I agree that UGA can get bye with a "functioning" offense, it's important to note that their offense has been exceptional the past couple of years.

Last year UGA was #5 in the nation in total offense in yards per game. 4th in yards per play. They were also 5th in scoring offense, so it wasn't like they just got yards without points.

To be honest their offense was ranked a little bit higher than their defense was.
