So in my boredom over summer I went back and watched all our offensive snaps with Gus as HC/OC against Grantham when he was at UGA 2010, 2011 & 2013. Also watched their games against Clemson & UGA last season. Some quick thoughts

1.) Thank GOD Parker, Mauldin & Holloman are all gone. Those dudes were good & I am pretty sure Parker would have raped our defense

2.) Their ILB's are very talented. The guys are fast and react well. There were a few times they were covering WRs 30 yds down the field and breaking passes up

3.) Have to win the battle up front on both sides. On offense Austin Golson is going to deal with a very good NG to start the season which worries me. If he handles him then we can get to those ILBs and run for days. If not, then things might get tough

4.) Gus has shredded Grantham when he has a talented QB. He did what he wanted in 2010 & 2013 and I think we have a better passer this year than either of those seasons

5.) I don't think they have great depth in their front 7. Their starting 7 are VERY good but after that things start getting thinner. If we can string some drives together and start wearing em out we can put em away in the 4th.

I am predicting 34-21 win. It will be close at half but I think we shut em out in 2nd half and pull away in 4th with a late TD. I think their OL is really gonna struggle containing Lambert, Lawson & Adams but they hit on 1 or 2 big pass plays to their talented WRs. So ready for some football!!!
