Seem to be conscious of targeting and other crazy stupid penalties.
We play smarter.

Running stadium stairs will do that for a team,

What really sealed it for me was the Alabama game two years ago where our players got up in Alabama's players faces when they were taking the field, then we proceeded to give 14 points on special teams and pick sixes. Pruitt only gave up 24 points that day with the leader of our defense being a transfer from UAB. I'm so glad it's over.

Don't recall that many stupid penalties in CMR era outside of Malcolm in the UGA-FL game in 12. At least not many that were actually worthy of being called a penalty.
Kirby had a player run across the field last year and it cost us a game.
I think we're moving in an awesome direction. I just don't understand the need to slam Richt every chance we get, especially when it might not be accurate.

Maybe the "stare at the wall" punishment worked.

And suspensions

The biggest difference between Smarts teams and the teams of the CMR era are a noticeable difference in slowing down speedy QB's and the team reads screens as well as any team I have ever watched. I watched 3 of our players on the one screen MSU threw immediately recognize and back off the rush and look for the target yesterday. It was a thing of beauty. We still made a lot of boneheaded mistakes last year/penalties that all teams make but defensively we look better than I can remember. That being said, Mark Richts offense was deadly most years.

The players are buying in to "The Process" Kirby brought over from Saban. The philosophy is that if each player does his job exactly as the play is drawn up it will be a successful play.
This philosophy reduces mental mistakes and stupid penalties because if the player executes properly there will be no mistakes.

Funny how people refer to "The Process" as some kind of evil thing when most of it is just practicing hard, being disciplined and playing good football.

I wouldn't go and say we have passed that threshold because we kicked the shite out off MSU... the stupid stuff and all the suspensions were, in my opinion, Richt's weakness...

That "being disciplined" was what has been lacking the last dozen years. That leads to silly penalties, being out of position, poor conditioning, etc. Haven't seen that this season. Refreshing, isn't it?

No saying we're there - just saying that The Process isnt a bad thing outside of some of the recruiting practices.

But are we still building better men, and do they recognize that there are more important things than football?

Do they know Kirby loves them? Can Kirby continue the UGA to Auburn pipeline?

Come on man.
The most costly celebration penalty in the history of Georgia football happened a year ago this week. A penalty that will forever be part of Georgia - Tennessee football history.
To Kirby's credit none have happened since.
AJ was innocent

And can Kirby do a backwards dive from the tower at the pool?

You know what else is missing...the tackles that consisted of trying to knock a guy down instead of actually tackling them. I love the way our guys tackle without trying to make a highlight reel...

Wasn't that the Martinez era of defense? I hated that crap. Worse "tackling" ever.
