It is even crazier than that.
UGA has only allowed 51 first downs all season (bama has allowed 86 for comparisons sake).

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Alabama linebacker Will Anderson Jr. is used to starting fast.
According to Dr. Matt Rhea, the Crimson Tide's director of sports science, Anderson has reached 20 mph on GPS while running in practice. Even more impressive, Anderson is the fastest player on the team going from a standstill to five yards, at 10.7 mph. That's nearly as quick out of the gates as former Crimson Tide receiver Jaylen Waddle, who was clocked at 11.2 mph at five yards last year.
Anderson, 6 feet, 4 inches tall and weighing 245 pounds, is about 65 pounds heavier than Waddle, who was the No. 6 pick by the Miami Dolphins in this spring's NFL draft.
"Waddle was the fastest at five yards that I have ever seen," Rhea said. "But at 245 pounds, it's unbelievable how fast [Anderson] gets off the start."

This entire thread is dumb. Will Anderson would definitely start over Nolan Smith. I honestly think Adam Anderson is as good though. He has more sacks in half the snaps. Not to mention being the highest rated pass rusher in the country last year.
Also why are the Bama fans with the exception of SoG using tackles and tfls but leaving out sacks, literally the most important basic stat for a pass rusher? Weird as frick.

There is no doubt he is a great one.

If Will Anderson, Adam Anderson, and Nolan Smith were to all declare for the draft this year (Will can’t obviously):
Will Anderson would be drafted first. Why AA decided to come back. He was getting a second round grade.
Also don’t see it mentioned it but Will Anderson is a sophomore compared to Adam Anderson who is a senior.

Drew Sanders is really coming into his own as well.

Does make a difference...experience. I've never quite understood arguments like this.
It is all opinions, as a whole and no possible way to prove who is better other than an opinion.
Adam Anderson and Will Anderson are both great at what they do. I'm not sure either absolutely has to be crowned "best".

Will Anderson is awesome. I think he’d probably start at Georgia over Nolan Smith. That being said, our DL rotates all the time, and with the blowouts we’ve had, they haven’t played a ton of snaps.
Also, all of Adam Anderson’s TFL (technically 4.5) are sacks and 2.5 of Nolan’s 3.5 TFL are sacks which does at least make those numbers look more impressive.
Just for the sake of perspective.
