Georgia's run defense is a mirage if you actually have someone that is a serious threat downfield.
Agree to disagree.
UGA was able to stop Oklahoma in the 2nd half and in OT.
UGA was limiting Auburn in the 1st half of the DSOR and wore down (out) in the 2nd half. I can admit when we were beat.
We shut down Missouri after the first 20 minutes.
We are a team capable of making adjustments that work. We are a 60 minute team.
That doesn't mean we win. We still have to win the trenches and protect the football.
But I like our punchers chance in the NCG.

It'll be a war. Any analysis other than that is faulty.

Sure but still, giving respect to Mayfield down the field let Anderson get loose all game long. To a lesser extent in the 2nd half, but he was still getting his yards then.
I really don't think people get how exotic Oklahoma's offense is to the SEC though. They're not just a spread offense, but they go lightning fast, their FB is a threat in the pass, and in general it's different. Alabama would have likely struggled at first too, maybe not to the same extent, but definitely.
Expect Georgia to load the box vs Alabama and mysteriously, those rushing yards will be cut down again. It's not to say Alabama doesn't have a chance to win, they do, but if you expect Alabama to score more than 20-24 points, prepare to be surprised.
