I'm catching heat from a few on here (not you) but this is essentially all I'm arguing. A program at UGA's level of recruiting ability should be able to have a functional offense with or without Pickens. So yea, the offense may need to adjust but they have the players to do it. So if the offense isn't up to par this season, blame the coaches for not adjusting, not the Pickens injury.



Overall you're right. You're being a bit too hard on Pickens himself, but you're correct about the offense in general. 2020 was a step in the right direction schematically speaking. The implementation of the offense was held back by limited practice and an unsettled QB battle due to a myriad of reasons. Will be interesting to see how far they can progress with a full spring and a settled QB.

For sure. UGA seems to be trying to head in a different direction. UGA with a top 15-20 offense while still having elite defensive talent would be super dangerous. UGA gets a lot of shite for no titles since Walker, but I also think they are one of the unluckiest programs that are due their turn. There are 4-5 seasons just in the Richt/Smart era where a few breaks that Bama has tended to receive on the favorable side would have resulted in national titles.
