If we're starting a true freshman again, it's because Fields is the absolute truth, and the other east teams are especially fricked.

If Fields is actually good enough to beat out Fromm, you can go ahead and print the t-shirts.

I think the Smart money is on UGA, but....

they do lose a lot of experience with this class, like 1/3 of the roster. And that doesn't even speak to underclass men that decide to leave early.

On the flip side, their 2018 class is monstrous.

An upset or two and we could win, but you'd be crazy not to pick UGA as the favorite right now.

UGA comes to our place in week 2. Should be fun

Win or lose Willy B is going to be insane and I believe it'll be a night game.

Probably earn our ranking as the college with the most ppl thrown out of the stadium that night.

Not sorry for partying.

Hoping for hurricane, rescheduled day game on a random weekend at a neutral field of some sort.

Ohhhhh come on, Rig. We aren't that rowdy, are we? I mean, a little bit of stadium swaying and press box tremors never hurt anybody, right?

I don't see Saban winning it in the first year. Will take a while for him to pass Dallas and Philly.

After the Kentucky and Clemson games last year I'm not sure having a loud and pumped Willy B is as helpful to us as it should be.

Uga has 27 Seniors or rs sr's on their 85 man roster. 27/85 = 31% or roughly 1/3 of their roster.

They don't teach 5th grade math at UGA?

Our 2017 class was #3.
2016-6th

We have a lot of built in depth. Yes, we lose a lot. You are right. It would be silly not to admit this.

Roquan Smith, Lorenzo carter, Davin Bellamy, Sanders all made huge plays for us over and over. But, we have a lot coming back, or probably coming back. Our areas of concern would be secondary and LBs on defense, but we have a lot of quality young LB's that got a lot of playing time. Secondary is my major area of concern.

Still have nightmares about 2012. What an arse whipping we took that night, with a healthy Gurley no less.

A large share of those are walkons, though.

This is kind of my point. Talent is unmistakable. The unknown is chemistry. How do the new players gel with each other. It could be better, or it could be worse. Nobody will know until next fall. That's what makes it fun.

I think the crowd is going to be far more pumped for this game than either game you mentioned from last year. First SEC game of the year, almost definitely a night game, we should be ranked...I think the level of intensity will be ramped up a couple of notches and the guys should be pumped.

Now go back to that link and count how many of those Seniors never saw the field this year. Nevermind, I'll help you...12 of of the 27 weren't starters or even contributors to this years team.So that drops it to about 17% of our roster.

Incorrect. That list includes all of the walkons. There are 131 players on that list.
