SCAR's OLine should be the difference maker. We'll see.

SCAR's depth at RB, and talented depth at RB, is going to surprise some people. RFr David Williams is special. Size, power, world class speed, runs behind his pads, very fluid, good hips, good vision ... he might really shock some people. He is very very good and he's fourth on the depth chart at RB.


Several things in USC's favor....not that ultimately it'll end up that way, but:

As you say, USC's OL versus UGA's front 7: UGA's LBs are very good, but USC's OL may be good enough in it's own right to cancel them out...

The Williams-Brice Factor: it has been known to intimidate UGA teams in the past, and last time they were there, they were embarrassed in monumental proportions. That UGA team was averaging at 50 pts per gm on the season heading into that game: they score 7 against USC...

UGA will depend on their very talented RB unit, as well they should. But if anything USC's strength on defense will be in the middle: DTs, LBs, safeties. Will Gurley and Marshall be able to get to the edges to make their big gains?

Will two of the fastest RBs in the nation make it to the edge? I'm pretty damn sure they'll be able to.

That's the big question.



The great embarrasment of 2012 was that UGA could never establish the running game.

Also, so much of the game plan was Murray changing the play at the LOS and the Cola crowd noise wasn't allowing him to do it, relying on visual cues that yall's D picked up on.

Hopefully Bobo learned his lesson and changed the scheme.



If I recall correctly, we won the East that year anyway, and almost went to the NC, so the Carolina game really doesn't matter that much, win or lose.


The Carolina Kiss ?

Ummmm..... if stadium is an issue, then SCAR might as well just write off the Florida game- I mean in you have literally one win in the Swamp.....in history.
