Do you think Billy is game planning for Georgia?

No, he doesn't change "the process" regardless of the opponent or the outcome.

Too bad he's not Saban. That process shite worked great for him but hasn't paid any dividends for SBB. Ya really gotta come up with your own thing.

It would help if he understood how it worked and didn't just superficially try to copy and paste it with no actual understanding of how to implement it.

I don’t have any idea of the X’s and O’s Billy will employ, but…an unpopular opinion amongst my Dawg brethren and probably the Rant at large…I think UGA comes in overconfident and either loses straight up or has to scratch and claw to get out with a win.

You are just nervous.

This will be a blow out and over before halftime.

Or come up with an actual system that works. It doesn't have to be same as Saban's but it needs to be a system. And one that works and is improved upon.

I always recommend Atomic Habits (book by James Clear)

Exactly.

To be fair, I guess it did work in the Sun Belt, but replicating it in the SEC, which is exactly what he attempted to do, would have required adjustments (e.g. not being the playcalling HC esp when your offense kind of sucks, not hiring all your sun belt buddies, not being prepared to get into bidding wars for top recruits).

At Lafayette he had more resources than who he was recruiting against, so it worked pretty well.

In the SEC, with the cheap-o UAA, he was at a disadvantage in many ways, so it failed miserably.

Either one could happen, but I'm not sure why Georgia would be overconfident. We've struggled against lesser teams and Florida is improving. The Gators have had every opportunity to give up on Napier and the season, but they haven't.
I expect the game to be a tight battle with Georgia pulling out a 10 point win.
However...if Georgia gets up a couple of scores early it could get ugly.

Thats one of the main problems with SEC fans ,every fan thinks their team
should blow their opponent out.When it doesn`t happen,which is very often,
they shite on their coaching staff.LSU so-called fans are great at that.Every
team has enough talent to to have a great game against anybody,it is
played out every week.People need to enjoy their teams and quit being so
negative about everything. There are what,128 programs ,how many are
undefeated or have blown every body out.NONE!!

I think the game will be closer than people expect. Billy's job is on the line and his team knows it. A win probably saves his job.

Florida is improving
Florida has improved a bit. Lagway can make big plays unlike Mertz (but also more prone to big mistakes than Mertz) and the defense isn't totally lost and playing with some fire.

But I think a lot of the "improvement" came from playing:

1-7 Miss State (on a 7 game losing streak)
3-5 UCF (on a 5 game losing streak, KJ sucks & just fired DC)
3-5 Kentucky (on a 3 game losing streak)

These are terrible teams they beat up on.

It's like when they "looked better" beating up on 3-4 fcs Samford in between Miami destroying them and A&M humiliating them.

The rubber meets the road starting this weekend, and it will be ugly for UF.

UGA 44
UF 21

This was the case against Miami & Texas A&M, maybe moreso because those games were at home and those teams were not as held in as high regard as UGA is right now.

It's going to be a blow out.
