That sucks with Dominick Blaylock already unavailable. Who else does UGA have beyond Jackson and Burton?


No one besides another highly rated freshman and some guys that shouldnt see a field.

Given the rumors leading up to NSD a few years ago, I was overly pissed when he flipped.

I can’t say I’m the least bit mad at this point.

We got a good year and a half out of him. That TD this year vs AU was worth it alone.

that is debatable. He barely showed up quite often........when he wasn't suspended.

No debate our O is worse without him. I am thankful he hung around for 2 wins over AU.

Nope. Locker room cancers are never good for a team. Tremendous talent but absolutely worthless.

Well, we are your Super Bowl.

ETA and he was most definitely the reason you won both games.

I mean, it takes a special retard to start Jake Fromm over someone like Justin Fields.

Georgia would be the best team in CFB if Kirby had half a brain.

3 catches in 2 years against Auburn.

Dude has really lit it up.

About like Leonard Fournette against Alabama.

Dont be silly. Every coach makes the same decision.

You need to quit while you are behind.

Pickens has been basically useless to your program. He has made more news off the field (fighting/water bottle) than production on the field. But enable it all you want.

No, not every coach chooses to play the worse QB of the two.

Even Gus Malzahn chose Sean White over Jeremy Johnson despite JJ being older and more experience. Nick Saban chose Tua over Jalen Hurts.

This is wrong. Nick Saban never started Tua in 2017. Hell, he didnt even bring him off the bench vs AU in 2017 when Hurts was terrible in that game. If not for an incredible stroke of luck, Tua transfers away for 2018.

Disagree. Pickens did more good than bad for UGA.

OK...

Also, he was terrible because of Auburn’s talented defense.

Tua started over Jalen Hurts in 2018, even though Jalen was a 2 year starter at Alabama.

You know why?

Tua was a better QB. Nick Saban knew that.

Saban started Tua in the 2nd half of the 2017 National Title game. And then Tua was the starter for the 2018 season. But I agree that Saban should've had Tua take over sooner -- in the game vs MSU, imo.
