Campbell hasn't played since Week 2 and LeCounte has been up and down his entire career at UGA, although hes played well this year.

I'd be worried about Mullen getting Pitts, Hammond, and Swain matched up on UGA's LBs.

Because you're still mad about 2009.

They could play with anyone so far. You haven't seen receivers like ours, you haven't seen a passing attack like ours.

That game against Notre Dame was pretty good for you guys until it was realized that Notre Dame doesn't have that great of an offense. No where near Florida's. You guys have not played a single decent offense yet.



Similarly, you guys are extremely fortunate that Kentucky and South Carolina both lost their starting Quarterbacks and were basically playing receivers at QB.

Because Hilinski was cutting you guys up no problem. 15 of 20.

If you thought SCAR's receivers and QB were good at the pass game, just wait until you see Trask and co.

Sure, but LBs in coverage against WRs is always a concern. That's probably why UGA will play very few snaps in base. I haven't seen any updated stats for this year, but the stat last year was something like 90% of defensive snaps in nickel or dime.

OK, but they can't control that. They can only line up against the guys in front of them.

It's mostly the same guys from last year, and they all hung in there with UF and Bama a year ago. That's not a guarantee of success, but they can handle it athletically.

UGA is both very talented and very well coached defensively. That will be a challenge for UF.

I don't think Georgia's defense is remotely close to replicating playing against LSU at night or South Carolina on the road in the rain.

We managed to move the ball very well against both of those teams, including Auburn at home.

Sorry if I'm not buying your defense being that great when you haven't played a single real team all season.

Georgia's Opponent's SEC Record: 7 - 14

Florida's Opponent's SEC Record: 13 - 16

Florida has played in real games and come away with pretty good results, Georgia has feasted on cupcakes and lost to one of them.

UGA's defensive athletes are not what I'm worried about. Reed, Stokes, Campbell, LeCounte, etc. can play with anyone.

Except South Carolina

No doubt. Arkansas fans have plenty to worry about already.

You're not concerned he basically hasn't played against any decent competition this year and hes coming in cold after 5-6 weeks off?

Not overly concerned. It's not like he's inexperienced. Conditioning would be a concern possibly, but he's been practicing for a couple weeks now.

ETA: Daniel, Stevenson, and McGhee have played solid ball in his absence if he becomes an issue.

I am more worried about Pitts than I am about you WR's. Don't get me wrong. Your WR's are good, too. I just think Pitts is the key.

All advanced stats say that that is a very debatable opinion. Those are opponent adjusted.

Good question.
Wins over 2 FCS teams, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina and Auburn.

Only Auburn is good, but not great.

Florida is way overrated.

Why is Florida ranked #6


It doesn’t matter what we are ranked, if we win out we are in the playoff. If we don’t, we are out.

Because after the top 3 or 4 teams, there’s really nothing special going on in college football this year.
