Does Auburn give Georgia a good game?

I'm not sure Auburn has the talent or depth upfront to consistently slow down Georgia's run game. Fundamentally speaking schematic wise they should be better than Arkansas though. I don't like this rush 3 drop 8 Big 12 stuff teams have been doing.
Also you can't run straight at Georgia, personally I think you have to get Tank and Hunter in space on pop and swing passes hope they make someone miss or beat them to the hashes.
Auburn has to take deep shots early and also on 2nd and short yardage try to limit obvious passing downs. You're not going to be able to sustain long drive against UGA'S defense. Auburn's receivers have to come up with some 50/50 balls.
I still like Georgia by aleast 10 but in that Voodoo Jordan-Hare stuff happens.

I honestly dont see auburn being able to hang. I hope I'm wrong, but the eye test doesn't look good for my boys

Depends on Bo Nix...
Do y'all get 4th quarter the LSU game hair on fire version of Bo?
Or I can't hit simple hitch routes benched against Georgia State Bo?

In terms of effort? Yes. I don't think they'll roll over and quit. It could be a 14-6 type game in the middle of the 2nd quarter. I doubt it's still competitive by the start of the 4th though. They don't have the OL or WR talent to put much pressure on UGA's defense. Their biggest weapon will be Carlson, who is in range if they just make it to the 40.

Bo Nix is a seasoned third year SEC QB
AU defense is what will win this game.
The offense needs to be productive on a steady level.
The whole team needs to adjust as needed.
ALL THOSE PURCHASED 5$TARS put their pants on one leg at a time

I see it playing out like the 2015 IB. We hang for a little while and then they pull away in the 4th.

Yes, but I don't think AU wins. I do not forsee a 37-0 type drubbing in JHS. UGA prolly wins something like 21-13.

I know I have red and black glasses on, but I don't see Auburn's O Line being able to do what it needs to do against UGA's D Line.
With that said, I think Auburn's O line has made great strides over where they were at the end of last season, but the lack of OL development under Gus for the last few years puts them at a large disadvantage.
I know Auburn got this game moved up on the schedule, but they may regret that if their OL continues to improve under Harsin.

Carlson hasn't been himself in the first third of the season. He had a miss and a block against LSU. He had a miss against GSU, and he missed a PAT against Akron.
Granted, the missed FGs were all 40+, with both against LSU 50+, but still...

For a quarter or two, maybe.
I'm thinking Jordan Davis, Devonte Wyatt and the LBs make Bo Nix rethink all his life choices that led to that fateful afternoon where they'll meet.

Former coach with deep ties to the team said to "pray Auburn sells out to stop the run." Went on to say that receivers were open all over the field with PSU and LSU. Said LSU didn't have the OL to give Max time to make the throws.

That’s the last thing I’m worried about. They will not have success running the ball unless McClain and Pappoe are both out.
On offense, I look for them to use Shivers in the passing game more. He was a big part of the offense in the 2nd half Saturday, and he cause LSU to have to take players out of the box. Then Hunter and Tank started finding more success running the ball.

Yes. Cause it’s always a good game when we beat the ever living shite out of Auburn at Jordan-Hare. 47-10 final. Fans gone by 3rd quarter

Auburn gets an early voodoo touchdown & a garbage TD maybe. UGA puts up 35+

I can see a 31-13 kind of game because of JH.
I'm not sure that their OL can hold up because Gus neglected it for so long.

Looking at this game, it seems very difficult.
Our offensive line is not match for GA defense. Our receiver core does not get separation often. Nix made some miraculous plays against LSU D, but the GA D is faster, more disciplined and fundamentally sound.
I am not sure what is up with Tank. I think something is off. I think getting Shivers back helps. I think he is fast enough to get us some yards if we can get it to him quickly enough.
Our defense seems to adjust ok, but if it plays like it has most of the year-- we will be in such a large whole it will not matter.
This year, GA just looks almost perfect.
This is what my head tells me.
But frick all of that. I expect it to be knife fight until the end and some crazy play to close the game.

I know. I was thinking in terms of Auburn possibly only needing to pick up 20-25 yards to have an opportunity to score points. I don't see any way y'all consistently move the ball 65-75 yards.
