Dude thinks 40 ppg is bad for an O and 10 YPP is bad for passing, so this should be interesting once he finally transitions and grows some balls.


PPG is not a great indicator when the D sets up the O like UGA had last year. Which is why I haven’t touched that stat. It doesn’t tell you very much about field position, sustained drives, WR or QB skills.

Tennessee doesn't scare anyone. Georgia's offense will be better than Tennessee's. Since we all know you're begging for validation that Tennessee's offense is going to be elite, I'll help: they won't.

Tennessee's offensive line is soft and they won't run the ball on anyone good. Just like last year, they'll pad stats against shitty defenses and then your fans will be touting them as elite. Just like last year.

Summer of George already proved this silly idea of yours to be wrong.

So have I.

Not to mention that A close look at the box scores would embarrass your takes, which is why you run.

Point is, A weak o can’t put up 40 ppg. Not even close to it.

Georgia could’ve averaged 50 points a game last year. As someone pointed out, Stet threw 9 passes in the 4th qtr during the entire regular season and we averaged damn near 40 points a game.

We don’t have anyone with big stats on either side of the ball, we are deep and play a shite ton of guys. All the “new starters” we have this year have 20-30 games played and not just garbage time.

I expect UGA to have a top 10 offense and defense, nationally and finish the year in the SECC with a shot at the playoffs.

Defense will be weaker in front 7, but not by much, and better on the backend provided they stay healthy.

Stet, Kenny McIntosh, Brock Bowers, Ladd and AD are about to terrorize all these weak arse SEC East defenses.

That would work if Stet was putting up big numbers spreading the ball around. But that’s not the case. Bowers 880 was the bulk of the passing. It wasn’t a bunch of guys with 600-800 yards.. it was Bowers and little else.

I will not give you an out where Tennessee averages 375 passing yards per game because they're throwing a ton in garbage time.

Georgia will gain a higher percentage of available yards than Tennessee. To me, that is the best and most fair way to judge an offense's ability to move the ball.

I'll give you a hypothetical example of what I mean.

If Georgia has a drive that starts at their own 40 and Tennessee has a drive that starts at their own 20 and Georgia scores a touchdown and Tennessee kicks a FG after advancing to the opponent's 20, they both gained the same number of yards, but Georgia's offense had a significantly better result.

Georgia gained 100% of available yards on that drive. Tennessee gained 75%.

We don't throw a ton. We're a run heavy team, especially now that we have an actual RB room.

Also I can't wait until I hear later this season that "Tennessee fans have been yelling from the rooftops all off season that UGA was gonna be bad on offense" when it was half your fanbase arguing with one Tennessee fan.

How many times do I have to tell you, here and on SECTalk, that if you just didn't respond he'd disappear. You know that he doesn't care about facts. Y'all could beat us 60-0 for the next 15 years and he'd still never give UGA credit.

A lot of words to say you don’t want the ban bet. And the Vols are a run 1st team so if y’all had an O you would have had an advantage.

And when I don’t respond it’s”Smokey ran away”.

But, the ban bet wasn’t accepted. Nothing other than the season (and even that is questionable) will change the doofus dogs delusions.

So, moving on.

UGA was 2nd in conference for passing TDs in the first half.
3rd in conference for passing yards in the first half.
1 TD away from 1st in conference for passing TDs in the 3rd quarter.

The numbers are big enough when the game is on the line.

UGA wins by 24 points over Tennessee and Stetson throws 2 passes in the 4th quarter (within the first 90 seconds of the 4th quarter) and your first impulse is that Stetson doesn't put up big numbers... smh

As for spreading the ball around. UGA passed for 25 first half TDs. Only 7 were to Bowers.
UGA passed for 2,537 first half yards. Only 538 of those yards were to Bowers.

Any more incorrect thoughts rambling in your head?

First half only?
I would take that bet.

2021 UGA 3,760 yards
2021 Tenn 3,213 yards

UGA gets up on opponents and then runs out the clock (fewer yards per play running the ball and fewer plays total). We may as well make it fair to keep the data exclusive to relevant offensive strategy.

You are right. Facts make him run. Always have.

Story has been consistently told by both 1) the stats I provided, and 2) the play by play box scores you brought up.

And you ran from both of those facts.
