Maybe you see it differently, but to me, making the same mistakes over and over and over again is the sign of a poorly coached team. Either the players aren't good enough to do what the coaches are asking them to do, they don't understand what the coaches are asking them to do, or they are ignoring what the coaches are asking them to do.


It was a lot of players. Some of it on coaching at the end of the day, but to assume to know more than that while not watching film and sitting in meeting and figuring out if the misses are due to players not learning or hearing the right call, whiffing, getting beat, hearing the call and doing something different…etc.

Firing them or not, they need to be better at all 11 executing every play next year. I think Smart is in a better spot to assess that than us. If he needs to move or fire people I’m sure he weighs all the aspects of each decision.

All of these are coaching issues considering UGA’s talent level. To argue that UGA was anything resembling a max capacity offensive outfit this season is obscenely stupid. I don’t have to be in film sessions to know that.

It’s bad when Oline gets beat so hard they can’t even manage to hold. Sad to see our Oline play suck.

I know injuries are a part of the game, but I wonder how much better the offense would have been with the 2 RB's and Etienne healthy this season.
Add to that 2 WR's suspended or kicked off who would have both played significant time in the offense.
Oline I don't have a clue as to why it has looked the way it has this year. It was highly regarded in the preseason.

We had so many 1 guy getting beat situations. Some were execution, some were not reading the correct blocks, some were whiffs. Throw in drops and it killed drives this year. The O line had spurts of excellence too which made it more confusing.

In any case, they way the Portal is now, I assume there will be plenty of new players and coaches next year for y,all to hate on, so don't fret…

Which tells you coaching if it’s a pattern on the season and no just one game

We are also seeing how special the 2 receivers in the Pros were and their replacements were not as good as them. I don't think that is regression.


Alabama had Jeudy and Ruggs go in the first round of the 2020 draft and tore our defense (and everyone else's) to shreds the next season.

Ohio State had Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson go in the first round of the 2022 draft and tore our defense to shreds the next season.

Georgia had Brock and Ladd go in the first and second round of the 2024 draft and the offense fell off a cliff.

2021 Bama is actually a great comparison. They had 3 NFL receivers and a NFL TE. Their other receiver put up big numbers at Oregon this year. 2 of the receivers were 1st round and second rounders in 2021. Young had a great season primarily on the backs of these elite receivers.
2022 Young had a big drop off in production. His best receivers were Burton and a dude who plays at Louisville now.

2021 Alabama Young plus great receivers 4872yds 47 TD
2022 Alabama Young plus decent receivers 3328yds 32 TD

Maybe, we need first round draft pick receivers every season?

That 2022 Alabama team was one of the more disappointing college football teams in recent memory. The comparison fits well.

Heisman QB loses a bunch of elite receivers and the new ones are not as good and does worse the next year. Seems like it kinda makes sense.
