A little caution about UGA

We need to make sure there is no doubt. If this is a 1 score game in the second half, the Zebras will be working overtime to position UGA for a possible second conference berth in the playoff.

I don't think Fromm is that much worse than last year. LSU blanketed his receivers and got pressure. If they get Mecole lined up on McWilliams and pick up the blitz, Fromm will find him for six 10/10 times.

Of course. We have to play a great game.

My hope is more on coaching winning for us. I truly believe Grantham can out smart Cheney and Mullen can out smart Kirby. Simple as that. If coaching was even to me we lose. I like our staff better on gameday. As for Fields. Not worried. He will be a force soon enough no doubt. But our defense is aggressive. It will fluster him. Add in we hide coverages very well, and Cheney proved he can't call when defenses do that vs LSU. So Fields will be lost as well.

I don't know the reason but he has been way off on the intermediate/deep passes compared to last year over the last few weeks. There were 3 or 4 in particular against Tennessee that were really bad passes that should have gone for big gains, and 2 in particular against LSU taht were just dreadful (1st quarter overthrow to mecole that would have been a TD, 3rd quarter underthrow to DRob that could have been a TD).

I like Fromm and he doesn't suck or anythign but he sure looks to me like he's not the same passer as last year.

It’s under much more scrutiny this year because he doesn’t have the security blanket of 2 of the 3 best running backs in school history. He made a couple of bad throws against Florida last year (Duke Dawson nearly had a pick 6 early in the 3rd quarter if I recall correctly)

Georgia could obviously beat Florida. They’re talented and well coached. But they are going to have to line up and compete to beat us this year, and that’s more than what a lot of people thought that Florida would do against Georgia this season. It’s gonna be a battle and I personally can’t wait.

I guess I was one of those who thought we would beat UGA back in the spring? Everyone was talking about UGA as some unbeatable force....well, that's wrong.

If you look at all our games (except UT) we have allowed some big plays or drives down the field....but we always make changes and stop the carnage. Our coaches are excellent at making decisions on the fly. So don't panic if the dawgs make a big play.

As far as cornerbacks...Im confident in CJ Henderson and Trey Dean and we are seeing improvement in our safety play. Remember that Stewart and Taylor had limited snaps last year and are still learning. Our front seven is making life easier for the secondary...losing Wilson hurt, but our DBs only have to cover for a short time due to pressure. Vandy has an excellent OL and they do get away with holding of course. UGA will see a pass rush that will rattle their QBs and keep them uncomfortable.

One thing I noticed watching replays of Vandy game is that Slaton and Conliffe were either not playing or maybe only had a few snaps? Clark, Campbell, Dunlap and our WV transfer DT played almost all snaps?

Both teams have really good kickers, but we have an advantage in punters...and flipping fields is huge. We want UGA starting deep and having a lot of green in front of them.


We just have to play our game...they will be ready to play cause their backs are to the wall...but so was Miss State after losing to UK and at least we have a week off for them to help forget their L.

we will win because of turnovers/special teams.

What, not because Franks is better than Fromm?
