Negative. Got a new job so I will be moving to Texas next month.
Hate that I'll miss going to the games, but life calls.
ETA: If by some chance I'm able to make it to the game, I'll hit you up.

Thank you for your concern but I don't need opinions from people I don't know.

Steele is a numbers guy. No instinct at all. He looks purely at the easiest schedule for the best teams. For years, that meant him picking Oklahoma and Florida State, and of course Alabama.
Doesn't mean he is smart, just that he goes the safe route and occasionally gets a nut.

For the record, his top surprise team last year was FSU.
Haha.
Hey guys, my "surprise" team this year is alabama.

We just need the OL to gel quickly during the Clemson game and run with that throughout the season. I'm all in for faking it until we make it in regards to outstanding OL play.
RB should be stellar barring DEFCON 1 (Gurley and Marshall both gone for season)
WR also will be a strong suit for us again with Bennett, JSW, Mitchell, Conley, and etc.
And the defense just needs to be able to get off the field on 3rd downs more often. Which I am fully confident Pruitt will bring about, and more!
All of this combined with decent play out of HM14 and we have ourselves a pretty good season! 10-2 maybe 11-1.
If we are lucky Evil Richt will guide us to the mythical 15-0.
Even if he doesn't 10-2 would be nice after this last season

I don't have any problem with them as a #1 "surprise" team. If they can replace Murray, they can be pretty damned good. Not being an "Insider," I can't really discuss his logic in full, though I do have my doubts about whether UGA's defense will be quite as good as he thinks they'll be. His logic seems a bit iffy there (aside from being a bit disingenuous when implying that Pruitt was an integral part of developing the defenses of FSU -- where he was around for only one season -- and Bama -- where he was, at absolute best third in line of responsibility for the defense, and I'd argue fourth would be likely be more accurate.) Returning 8 starters from a mediocre -- not terrible but certainly not particularly special -- defense doesn't necessarily mean the defense will be great this season. But UGA overall is brimming with talent, so it could certainly surprise people by doing better than anyone expected.
