I think y'all are gonna have a fantastic football team next year, especially with the strong OL, running game, and physical defense.

Above average QB play could be the difference between 10-3 and 14-1, IMO.

Is anyone separating themselves from the pack this spring? What sort of play do y'all expect? Do you think poor QB play will cost you a game or two next season?

Y'all have had very consistent starting QB play, as of late:
2014: 188/277, 67.9%, 2168 yards, 21 TDs, 4 INTs, 4 rushing TD
2013: 225/347, 64.8%, 3075 yards, 26 TD, 9 INT, 7 rushing TD
2012: 249/386, 64.5%, 3893 yards, 36 TD, 10 INT, 3 rushing TD
2011: 238/403, 59.1%, 3149 yards, 35 TD, 14 INT, 2 rushing TD
2010: 209/342, 61.1%, 3049 yards, 24 TD, 8 INT, 4 rushing TD
2009: 185/332, 55.7%, 2584 yards, 24 TD, 15 INT, 0 rushing TD
2008: 235/383, 61.4%, 3459 yards, 25 TD, 10 INT, 1 rushing TD
2007: 194/348, 55.7%, 2523 yards, 19 TD, 10 INT, 2 rushing TD

Edit: I forgot that Bobo left for Colorado State.

Good thread.

Not a UGA guy, but I would put a lot of $$'s on Ramsey being the game 1 starter.

We will be really, really solid at every position on the field, except QB (as of now). It's clearly our biggest question mark.

not really. Supposedly Park is lagging behind and Bauta and Ramsey are getting more reps. Which is surprising, because early spring people were really liking Park.

To be honest, average to subpar, at least out of the gate. I would feel MUCH better about this team even if we had Mason back at QB.

Absolutely. Our options are:

ramsey- only one with meaningful PT and has looked pedestrian/bad while doing it
bauta- a tebow-type player (thick body who can run a little as well as throw) with no meaningful reps
park- redshirt with no game action

Is Bobo gonna handcuff the passing game and focus on more of a short-yardage, West Coast style passing game?

Maybe but it won't matter, he's not at UGA.

Keep in mind two of those years were Stafford and four were Murray, maybe the two best QBs who have ever put on a UGA uniform.

It'll be part of the annual bed shitting against a very inferior opponent, but yes. Early candidates are at Vandy, vs USCe, at Tenn, vs Missouri.

I think 2015 will be very similar to 2014. One week this team will absolutely clobber someone good (2014 at Missouri or vs Clemson and Auburn) and the next week they'll look atrocious against a bad football team and have a head scratching loss (2014 UF). I've come to accept that 9-3 is probably the ceiling for this reason.

Just find this comment funny.

How is Missouri in both the "good" and "very inferior" categories?

I don't think Missouri will be nearly as good in 2015 as they were in 2013/2014

It's looking like the current standings are likely:

1) Ramsey
2) Bauta
3) Park

UGA is going to hand the ball off a lot this fall, no matter who the QB is.

Fair enough. To each his own. Just thought it was funny that we were listed as both a positive and a negative.

Of course, I also didn't think there was a snowball's chance in hell that Missouri could rip off 6 in a row to take the East last year so who knows?

Nah. Sex with wife = positive. Sex with wife after she got fat = negative. Same principle.

He really did. It's a shame that the uninformed only want to talk about his record against ranked teams his first 2 years, because they really don't know what they're talking about. Guy was awesome for us and was tough as nails. I believe he's one of only like 3 players in NCAA history to throw for 3,000 yards for 4 straight years, with the others being Texas Tech/Hawaii type QBs that threw it 60 times a game.
