South Carolina is a little different. That was more of a case of a freshman QB having a bad game.

True. I wonder why, all of a sudden. Wind? maybe. Nerves? That loud techno music and white towel waving can be a little intimidating. Either way, we should have run South Carolina out of the stadium. 14 points was deceiving. That return on the onside kick, and all.

Vanderbilt, Missouri, and Nicholls legitimately whipped Georgia's OL physically.

And here is where I go against popular feelings. Those teams sold out to stop the run. They stacked the box and keyed on our tailbacks. Eason had very good games. they dared us to run and said, if you are going to beat us, you will have to do it with a freshman QB. The other games? They came after Easons's good passing games, and I think they played us normal. They did not stack the box as much and played us straight on. We did what we do best and ran the ball.

That's my guess. I have no broken down the film.....but it seems when we have one good passing game, then one good run game and it is consistently up and down like that....just seems logical to me. that's why I have defended our OL a bit more than some.
It's just a theory.

Vanderbilt and Missouri actually just had better players in their front 7

Not so sure about Vanderbilt. Missouri...maybe. They are both defensive teams, so you might be right. It could just be as simple as what you said.

I have a lot of theories!
