Mitchell is needed with Bennett on offense.

While he might be a good CB for us, it will be better for the team in the long run if guys like Bowman, Johnson, Dawson, and Langely see this as their opportunity to step up.

Hopefully those guys step up and perform.

This is also extemely true, the more weapons at WR the better. I rewatched the SECCG the other day and missing Bennett and Brown turned out to be huge. In the first half we tried to exploit Geno Smith who played Nickel and was mainly matched up with Conley, but Conley wasn't athletic enough to get adequate separation on a few plays.

Yes.

Carolina and Clemson only have 1 good receiver each. The rest are scrubs that aren't half the athletes that our freshmen are. There will be some blown coverage here and there, but my hope is that our defensive line is dominant enough (at least in the Clemson game) to force the quarterback to throw faster than he wants, or while on the run, which will give the young secondary plenty of opportunities to make plays.

Safety help from Tray Matthews will be huge.

I'm not worried in the slightest... about Clemson.

Carolina is little bit higher quality, mainly their offensive line. UGA's secondary will have to hold their own a little bit better for that one.
