Against UF and SC UGA moved the ball. Against UF the O stalled near the goal and ended up with field goals instead of TDs. There were also plenty of misques that cost points in both of those games.

UGA has the offensive firepower to move the ball and score on anyone. UGA has the line to block the Auburn pass rush. Even if the team isn't hitting on all cylinders (par for the course this season) UGA is still good enough to score much more than the Barn and win by 10 in a lower scoring game.

BUT. What if the offense plays mistake free? What if those slightly overthrown balls are right on target? What if we don't have penalties that cost points? What if we don't see significant injuries that hinder production?

One of these games those 'what ifs' are going to be reality. If this team does it's job both on O and D UGA surprises the country and completely routes Auburn.

Trey Hill is the key to the offense wearing down Auburns Dline. Auburn don't have any depth to keep up with our deep Oline. This will be the O's breakout game if Hill is good to go. I can't wait to see tRant melt.

Hill’s healthy status should pave the way for the Bulldogs to open the game with their starting line intact for the third consecutive week and fourth time this season.


Injury update

The Oline did lose sync when Hill left against Missouri.

Yeah, right.
The refs always love penalizing the Dawgs. Its almost tradition.

This weekend I'm more worried about the penalties our opponents don't get. Auburn's pass defense strategy (for years) is to commit pass interference on nearly every contested play and assume the refs won't call it more than a couple of times. And somehow they get away with it most games. Our receivers are already getting mauled this year with relatively few getting called. I'm afraid to see what happens Saturday.

Also they love to let those fat arse DL take about 2 steps after the pass and pile drive the QB into the dirt. Our OL better hold their blocks past the whistle.

It's not the refs fault that Pickens thinks it's ok if he's 15 yards off the line of scrimmage
