CMR currently 2-3 all time against Saban.
The 2 wins have come when UGA clearly had more talent and one of those games was an overtime win against a bad bama team.
the three losses have come when we probably still had more talent but it was close enough for Saban to make CMR his bitch.
excuse me? What history have you been watching? UGA most definitely did not have more talent than LSU in 2003 when two of those three losses came. Or perhaps you have forgotten the 2003 UGA OL that was patchwork at best. And one of those losses was one of the better games I have ever seen at Tiger Stadium, coming down to almost the last play. I will give you that 2004 Richt probably did have by far the more talented team and beat LSU like a rented mule. I was at that game, and still list it as my all time favorite at Sanford. I actually think the 2007 game at Bama was a wash talent wise.
It will most definitely come down to how well the UGA OL plays. If they hold their own, then yes I think that UGA has the receiver and TE talent to exploit the Bama secondary. I also think that playing the option two weeks in a row can only help shore up run defense issues. Not to mention, I think it makes for excellent tackling practice.

Hopefully Georgia plays better than they did against Kentucky so that the game can at least be interesting for a half.

Some people are so worked up for an argument that they will extrapolate what isnt there to extrapolate for the sake of making their argument.

Thats what was said. You turned it into me saying that UGA was head and shoulders above LSU in those two games. Not the case. When teams are close in talent, coaching and gameplan normally make the difference. Regardless how you choose to look at the situation nor what argument you choose to present...on equal footing, Saban eats Richts lunch.
Im not saying we CANT win next Saturday. I am saying that we have about a 30-35% chance to win.
