re: Biggest Concerns Going Into The ND Game?

In terms of winning or losing, there isn't a reasonable concern. I hope that UGA plays great and that there are no big injuries on either side. I hope that the visitors are treated well. I hope that the officials are on their game. I hope that the recruits have a lot of fun. I hope that UGA covers the spread.

It's Notre Dame - if God would have wanted you to have tickets, he'd have miracled your arse some tickets.

"So you don’t think GA’s the better team?"

Aside from fixed games, there are two reasons a team wins: (1) they're better; (2) they're luckier.

It's the second factor that's the concern, because that is impossible to control or predict.

Here’s how I see those “slow starts” against relatively bad teams.

It’s a high energy sport, neither team has the advantage of being more “pumped up” than the next. Coaches and fans can edge that but ultimately it’s about the players mentality. A team who plays in a shite league could very well be way more pumped than the 5* team they’re going to play even at their stadiums.

You see it all the time. Alabama, Auburn, UGA, LSU, Ohio state, etc all start slow against 2*-3* teams sometimes.

If it’s a neutral attitude and both players are playing their best games, yes the UGA should roll Murray state for 4 quarters no doubt.

But let me tell you a 3* athlete can come out and punch the shite out of a 5* for a quarter before wearing down, and it happens all the time. If that no name team is still in the game going into the 3rd quarter then your team is playing like shite and super unmotivated.

I truly think a team of jacked on energy and passion 2* and 3* players can keep up with any team in the country for a quarter before wearing down.
