Gonna be impossible to replace that guy


Good thing we don’t need to. Even if we get 50% of his production that’s 3,000 yards and 30 TDs

UGAs offense. Don't see it being the explosive unit they expect it to be.

We would settle for average.

A&M is 6th on that list.

You think they won't live up to that?

Yes, I know LSU fans will lose their shite over this opinion, but 2020 LSU is going to look a lot different than 2019 LSU.
yeh. it's not looking good for the Bayou Bengals.

word in BTR is maybe our defense can help carry the offense to some degree.

hope Jimbo shows some respect to us Tigers.

A&M is always a safe bet.

ETA: Also, UGA has now gone 11-1 three years in a row, so those people who weren’t saying what you are saying were also correct.



You also get Alabama, Auburn, Florida and a sneaky good Kentucky team this year. So you are telling me y’all are gonna go 3-1 against those teams no doubt??? Yea I just don’t see it.

That is a TALL order.

UGA should beat Auburn, based on how much they lost from a really good defense - but UGA is late in the season. They may have solidified by then.

Alabama is the only team with more talent on paper, but I don't think Kirby's record so far against more talented teams is all that good.

Florida is a tough out. I can easily see the Gators pulling that one out.

Sleeping on Kentucky is certainly foolhardy.

While UGA is likely to be favored in three of those if lines came out now, I think they lose 2 honestly - Alabama and Florida. Counting out Auburn is dumb, they always manage some craziness.
Kentucky is going to run right at people with that OL of theirs. Not sure if UGA will be able to counterpunch.

No it isn't and it's perfectly reasonable to think 3-1 is very realistic.

Easily? How so?

We shut em out last year and our defense will be better in '20. UK will give some other teams fits but not UGA.


Ya really think they'll make hay running on a defense that gave up 2 rushing TD's the entire regular season?

Auburn - they lost significant talent on oline


The Oline sucked. Glad to see those guys leave

Auburn played a lot of guys last year, but Brown will definitely be missed. They’re still going to be very solid.

Nix was awful in the big games

You got me there. He did suck. Hopefully that was just being a freshman.

Wasn’t the same conversation held last year?

And everyone answered UF?

UF gets LSU in Gainesville this year and drops Auburn for Ole Miss.

It’s tailor made for UF to go 11-1 at worst.




Georgia/Florida will be the key. If you beat Georgia you should go to the SECCG. Lose that one and it will be very tough. It will be another huge game.

Not that late. 10/10 this year...if things go on as planned.

I didn’t even make a prediction, but that wouldn’t be shocking at all.

You don't see us going 3-1 against that 4 even though we've gone 9-2 vs those teams in the last 3 years.

Didn’t realize previous Georgia teams have anything to do with 2020. Also I feel like Auburn and Florida are our for blood. They will be looking to break losing streaks against y’all. Y’all may he more talented than them but that’s irrelevant once the game is kicked off especially considering those are both rivalries. Can they go 3-1 against those teams? Yes they can but I wouldn’t put my life savings on it either. Will this be the year y’all actually run a modernized offense? I think that will go a long way in the success of Georgia’s season or lack there of.

Well, you are probably used to hearing it as Florida/Georgia, maybe?
