3 out of our 4 TDs were scored by freshmen and our QB was a former walk on. I wonder if there’s ever been a stat like that in a CFB NC game.



I can think of one

- Freshman QB 3 TD passes
- Freshman WR #1, 1 TD catch
- Freshman WR #2, 1 TD catch
- Freshman RB #1, 1 TD catch

3 of our 3 TDs scored by freshman on throws from a freshman.

So replace the senior walk on with 2 years starting experience with a freshman with no meaningful snaps in his career, then add a freshman RB. Both shuffled in freshmen LTs in the 2nd half too, I believe (Leatherwood for Bama, Jones for UGA).

Georgia's kids made plays like ours in 2017. Ours did not. Ballgame.

A walk on who was in his second year as a starter. Tagovailoa came off the bench after halftime as a true freshman with no significant playing time under his belt, with his team down 13-0. I believe it evens out.

With zero spring and fall practices as a starter. He was a legit walk on. How main plays weren’t ref mistakes or luck. He was told he would never start for uga. Far different then tua.

Yeah, it is going to stink after he wins another 4 NC then retires.


But then Alabama has had 2 of the greatest college football coaches in history on their sidelines, want to to bet they find the third?

What are you whining about? He's 100% correct.

His two young wideouts had two critical drops in the 2nd half that changed the game.

I remember the hall one, and another people talk about wasn’t a good pass, so I am not counting that as a drop.

Daniels had on a jersey and pads for the game. He was healthy.

ACL tears are where you can't play. He played.

Yes, Georgia had one CB out while Bama had both, so we agree on that.

LINK

You were missing your starting OLB(not due injury) as was Bama. Allen actually had more tackles and sacks than Anderson.
You used a backup LT while Bama used a backup center.
Your continuing to fabricate Bennett as the backup shows you believe Bama would have won if not for the injuries.
You were missing 1 starting corner while Bama was missing both. Jobe's stats in 2020 were about the same as Smith's.
Your no 1 receiver was Bowers and the rest of the starters were healthy enough to play.

Dressing out doesn’t mean he was healthy enough to play. Even if it did, he didn’t play and that us all that matters. Major adv to bama.

Acl recoveries are where you can’t play most snaps. He didn’t play most snaps per his doctor led recovery protocol. In fact, He played less snaps than jamo did, so that’s adv to bama.

Y’all had your best pass rusher Anderson. We didn’t have our best pass rusher Anderson. Y’all lost your 2nd best, while we didn’t. This is a clear advantage to bama.

Who was your backup center? LT is the most important spot on the OL. Another bama adv.

Wrong. Illogical conclusion to reach.

One was an all American, the other wasn’t.

Wrong again. He plays TE. Bama also had their #1 TE available and he did well.

He didn't play because Bennett was the starter.

He played a month earlier in the SECC game. He was healthy.

Allen had as much or more production than your guy so Bama lost as much or more.

McLaughlin. You did fine without your starting LT all year.

All American is subjective. Your corner and Bama's corner had similar stats the year prior so the production lost was about the same.

A TE is a receiver, someone who is eligible to catch the ball. Your no 1 receiving target and all of your starters at wr played.

JTD never displayed enough health to be the uga starter.

Pickens was on a play count in both games vs bama.

This is about will Anderson vs Adam Anderson. Both teams best pass rushers. Allen isn’t an Anderson. His comparison is Nolan smith.

We overcame having to play our backup LT. Bama didn’t have to use their backup LT.

All American is evidence of excellence. Your guy never displayed that ability.

Tight ends and wide receivers are 2 different positions. This isn’t 7 on 7 summer camp.

Yet with him being healthy to start 2022 he decided to transfer with Bennett coming back.

He was healthy enough to play.

It is about starters. Allen had more sacks than Adams as well as more tackles so Bama lost more in terms of sacks/pass rush. He was actually hurt in the first game making a sack.

Your starting LT played in the game, so you are fabricating things.

All American is someone's opinion.Jobe had basically the same production.

Both are eligible receivers and Bowers was your no 1 option when throwing the ball as well as having all of your starting wrs playing.

Well you should not say that too loud on who is a cry baby whether ya think saban is or isn't. I really not a Saban fan but uh you don't have much room to talk. Have you seen how much whining coach Sweeney does in his career? In google it says captain whiner award, does this on TV to get his way.
