lol what? I said UGA's offense should be improved and you got pee pants about it. This whole conversation started because you didn't think UGA's offense would improve and Bama's take a step back. The same concept applies for Bama's defense being more improved than UGA's. UGA's defense doesn't have much room to grow, while Bama's was awful at times last year.


Wrong again scooter. This whole conversation started because you said this:

Isn't Bama returning a disappointing defense and replacing Tua along with their best WR's?


You then went on to act like Bama returning most of their defense and UGA losing most of their offense was somehow a net plus for UGA.

So you're saying Waddle did nothing this year? Okay. Wow you're retarded

No, it appears you are or you just have awful reading comprehension skills. I didn't say he'd do nothing. I said he hasn't proven he will be as good or better than the WR's Bama is missing. He also can't "easily" put up a Chase like year give the amount of production Chase had.

Anyway, back to the original question

Georgia is certainly more interesting than they were 2 weeks ago offensively. They probably have more upside, but with the offensive line changes, a new QB and possibly a new system it would seem ideal to play them in week 3 as opposed to week 10.

I expect it to be a good game.

I expect for Bama to win this game easily. If our defense is fixed I think we have a VERY good chance to win the NC.

well, first off, this all started with me saying that Smith and Waddle could POTENTIALLY be as good or better than the 2 we lost. Do you know what "potentially" means?

My point is that Burrow couldn't win the job in a conference that is worse than the ACC, yet look what he achieved.


The big 10 is miles ahead of the ACC and he sat behind a 5th year senior and then the #6 pick in the 2019 draft after sustaining an injury.

Maybe, Newman will squeeze out a good year with all the talent UGA has around him. just, maybe


If he's as talented as Joe Burrow he can hope for similar numbers to Burrow's 2018 season.

Should be good for 10 or 11 wins.

No, you would be wrong. I said UGA's offense would be improved and you asked why Bama's wouldn't be then didn't like the answer. UGA's offense has more upward trajectory potential than Bama's due to how bad UGA's offense was last year and how good Bama's was with Tua. I said Bama would likely have a good offense again, but that it wouldn't be #1 in the NCAA like it was with Tua.

The net plus for UGA is that UGA's offense will be better while Bama's will take a step back. Bama will most likely still have the better offense, but the gap won't be as big as it was last year.

Try to keep up pls.

To play devil's advocate, I think you could say the same about a new Alabama QB facing UGA's defense. UGA's defensive personnel going into next year is super elite.

That's because the answer is stupid. Your argument is that UGA is going to be better because they're losing all of their production.

So Bama has "more upward trajectory" on defense then, right? Doesn't seem like you feel that way given your previous statements.

Agree, except the lone upside to Tua's injury was that Mac Jones got to be the starter for 2 SEC games and a Bowl Game against a Top 15 team. Georgia will be a tough test because they are a great defense, but I don't think our QB readiness will be a factor after playing @ Jordan Hare and against Michigan, not to mention also having already played Southern Cal 2 weeks earlier.

That obviously all changes if it ends up being Bryce.

As a Bama fan I would rather face UGA with 4 new OL starters and a transfer QB than the line you had this year and Jake Fromm. The UGA D will be as good as last years was, so that does not change really. I believe the Bama D will bounce back and have a much better year than last year or the year before. Wtih the injured guys we are getting back we return 8 starters. I was worried about the O but it will be really good again with 4 OL starters back, 2 of our 4 starting WR back, our Tight Ends back. All the Rb's back. The key will be how well will the QB play!! all that being said I expect the game to be great and I hope you enjoy our 200 milion dollar upgraded stadium!!!

Waddle was the best punt returner in the country this year. Ask Auburn how dangerous he is at WR. Devonta Smith had over 1200 yards and 14 TD's on the year. UGA has no one like them.

Alabama has all their TE's and RB's back. They have 4 returning starters at OL plus more players that logged starts. Mac Jones had 14TD's against 3 picks with over 1500 yards passing and just shy of 69% for a completion rate,on 4 starts. That's quite a bit of experience and production. Not to mention the regular kicker returns from injury.

That literally wasn't the argument at all. Are you sure you're reading my posts? I said the offense would be better due to having a new OC, better WR's, and a QB with a better arm. On top of that the offense won't have to do much to be better than the one last year.

Didn't I literally address this in my previous post? Yes, Bama has more upward trajectory with their defense since UGA's was at the top and theirs was middle of the pack.

You are right about this. I have no way of telling the future and knowing what injuries could happen before the game. However, its a fairly safe assumption that a better OC will produce a better offense.

I wouldn't if I was playing UGA. I'd much rather face the UGA that had bad WR's and unimaginative play calling. That UGA offense put up more than 30 points on one SEC defense throughout the entire year.

Right. Replacing most of UGA's production is fine because they're bringing in a new coordinator. That's usually how it works, right?

You also, literally, acted like Bama returning most of their defense was somehow a negative for them.

You hope it's a safe assumption.

It was one game... After Fromm put up 300 and 3 tuddies on Bama's defense I was excited, then this season helped me realize how little a one game sample size means.
