Blueprint:
Stop Georgia offense
Score more on Georgia's defense than you allow to Georgia
?????
Profit

Combine Ole Miss Offense and Clemson Defense…that might work.

quote:
Those who are still trying to discredit what Georgia has done through the last 12 games point to the lack of an opponent with an "elite offense," which is hard to find year in and year out. With that being said, as ESPN pointed out in their article, "the conventional wisdom was that an offensive juggernaut would go toe-to-toe with Georgia's overwhelming defense,"
Of course there’s a blueprint to beat UGA.
There just aren’t any teams capable of implementing it.
Alabama is not an offensive juggernaut, nor are really any of teams projected in the playoff (at least not enough of a juggernaut against UGA’s D).

How do Georgia fans feel about the comparisons to Saban’s early Bama teams? Stop the run and make the game manager QB beat you on defense, and on offense, sling it around and hope you hit enough big plays to outscore them? Obviously an oversimplification, but I’ve been curious about the opposing perspective from UGA’s side.

Send out the 2019 LSU team or the 2020 Bama team. It would be a heck of a game.
Gotta have a complete, balanced OFF with athletes to attack them, drive the ball downfield, and set the pace of play. On DEF, stop the run, pressure the qb, and have the athletes to match up with them in the passing game.
With that said the 2021 Bama teams has some holes on the OL and at RB (injuries). Don't see it happening, nor do I see any of the potential CFP teams beating them either.

Blueprint: Hit Metchie and Williams with room to run and hope they break it for touchdowns.
That’s Bama’s only hope. They get into a grinder with Georgia, they’ll lose by two touchdowns.

That article sucks and I feel ashamed having clicked it.
So yall don't have to click, the point of it is that UGA's offense struggled against Clemson's defense in game 1, therefore UGA's offense sucks and Bama can shut it down easily.
You're welcome.

I'm sure Nick Saban is happy for ESPN's assist in his game prep. Bravo.

Finishing off the thought with, "In other words, Georgia is likely to struggle more against a great defense than a great offense."

Alabama is not man enough to beat Georgia

Wait for Georgia to Georgia?

I have a blueprint for a 10,000 sq ft home on Paces Ferry.

I think any analysis that is heavily based on the Clemson game or using the Clemson game with another couple of games is probably flawed.
Teams can improve over the course of the year.
That said, this is the best defense we will have faced since Clemson both in talent and in stats.
Georgia wants to establish the run and Bama has been rather stingy vs. the run in the last month. That could be a problem.
There is a gap between Clemson and the second best defense UGA has faced to this point. Where does this Bama D fall in that gap?
Is it close enough to Clemson's to be a major problem. Is it closer to Florida, Kentucky, S. Carolina or whoever is the second best? Other than Clemson and arguably Florida, no real struggles.
I don't think Georgia has to run the ball extremely well. They will have to run it well enough to make Bama respect it. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 3.75 to 4.0 yards per carry could do it.
Bennett is the primary reason we lost the game last year. Many of the mistakes he made in that game he seems to have corrected this year. Will the moment be too big for him again?
The problems with Bama's Oline are not gonna be fixed over night to allow them to hold up well Saturday. Can they scheme around that enough to score enough points to win?
Bama hasn't been able to run the ball well for weeks now. The idea that they will be able to in this game with the injuries and against a front that no one has really ran it well against all year except maybe Florida is far fetched.
Some of our fans are scared due to the past. But the Georgia players and coaching staff have wanted this game. "You're either elite or you're not" is something they have really bought into.
In last year's game, Monken had WRs and TEs open all game. Yes, even in the second half. Barmore caused some problems when UGA had to go more pass heavy to try and catch up. Bama has no one like Barmore on the interior this year. Stetson overthrew and underthrew WRs who could have taken it to the house. He also would lock on to WRs and throw into coverage and completely miss wide open guys on other areas of the field. That hasn't happened as much this year. He's definitely better. Is it enough?
