Although he's still a pretty high ranked prospect, I think the McIntosh kid has been undervalued by our fanbase because of Emery and Sanders.

That guy is versatile, and is a great receiving back. I think he'll be another great back for us if he can get the chance.

We're so stacked right now though that could have a Kamara situation.

Who are the not-so-hyped players you've signed that you think will be difference-makers.

Mine: Bill Norton. High motor. Good technique. Heavy feet, but great with his hands. Excellent against the run. Not exactly a track star, but he keeps coming and coming. He'll end up on the interior line or even on the O-Line, but whatever he does he'll make a difference.

Most of all, I like the effort. He's 100 every play. That's what the Dawgs need.

Hell I hope he’s successful based on the name.

But hopefully S. Carolina can get a diamond in the rough kinda guy like Pharoh Cooper or Deebo here soon.

Have you seen the kid play? He's likely end up on the interior, and I'd bet $$$ he has a better career than Ishmael Sopsher



Good to hear. He's gonna need to be good for 20 pts next time we play you if its going to matter much...

I see what you did there - you took the worst game UGA played all year used it to dishonestly suggest that if we played again LSU wouldn't get smashed.

So here's what we both know, whether or not we admit it:
1. We can't replay the past, and LSU gets credit for the win.
2. UGA is still a better team than LSU
3. Neither team can win a Natty this year, so please beat UCF and count on UGA to run Texas out of the stadium.
4. In 2019 UGA will be once again chasing a SECC and a Natty and LSU will probably be looking for a QB. Again.

WOW! How two years of relative success has warped the world view of many Gorga fans. All of a sudden they are the elite?

What has Ga done? Won the weak East a couple of times. Lost to Bama twice, lost to Auburn and LSU. You are 2-4 against the three. Yet here you are talking down to a team you lost to. A team that totally dominated your team.

Maybe your team should accomplish something before you award it such high status. I guess when a team has been irrelevant since the 80s, any amount of success will go to the fans' heads.

GA is NOT on the level of BAMA. LSU will beat your whenever they play again. And we will not allow you to take 5 stars from Louisiana that LSU wants. You probably were in that GA group bragging about taking Emery. Psych!

I liked Emery, but why brag about another great RB? Zamir White was a better back than either Sanders or Emery, and Swift is the best back in the country. Add EH and the best line in the country next year, and I think UGA is just fine at RB.

Now, you can lament the current state of CFB, but it is what it is. UGA is currently a better program.

11 years since LSU won a national title with 2 losses in the weakest year of CFB in the modern era. 7 years since LSU won an SEC title with its best team ever before being completely humiliated in its own state for the title by Bama. Been irrelevant since.

At least we are even in the arena. LSU is still trying to find somewhere to park in the lot outside

I love the McCallum kid too! Didn't watch the Alabama-Mississippi all star game, but was told by several that he was clearly the best LB in the game. He's the type of player that being overlooked is only going to motivate him to play at an even higher level. I think when it's all over and done with, he will be one of the gems in this recruiting class. This guy is big, strong and feels disrespected and that is going to be a recipe for disaster for opposing teams facing LSU in the future!

Well, that is weird. I thought they gave out an award to the best back in the country. Swift wasn't even a semifinalist for it. Not saying he isn't good, but definitely not the best.

You mean those two GA losses? Wouldn't it be 1-1 if GA was on Bama's level?

Must have missed the part about him having off season surgery and taking a while to recover. The last 6 games of the year he was one of the best backs in the country if not the best. :/

How many years since Georgia won a national title? LSU has won two since then. How many SEC championships has GA won since LSU won its last? Head to head LSU 17 - GA 13.

As far as winning the SEC title, GA gets a leg up for being in the East. You won last year because you got a second shot against Auburn and you didn't play LSU or Bama.
