What do y'all think? For some reason I just don't think it will be as close as all the talking heads do. I see it being close at the half, maybe 3 points one way or the other, but we pull away towards the end and win by 10-13. Something like 31-20.

I didn't see a second of their first game, but with all the weapons we have on offense I think we see a similar assortment of explosive plays that we saw in week 1. We literally showed nothing on offense and just let the talent play...you gotta think that we open it up a bit and combine some more complex schemes with all of our speed.

17-10 at half. 31-20 final. Late score by SC makes it look closer than it was

Close at the half. Depth shows up late. Dawgs win by 17.

If we only score 10 points in the first half I expect to lose.

We dominated Notre Dame everywhere but the score board, zebras made sure of that.

I can't tell but I think our oline eats their dline up and while they have a talented QB and a couple of wrs.

We have a QB that looks us to a national title game, strong backfield, and Olympic speed and sure hands at wr almost across the board.

If SCU can't get it done this year, it will be a while...

Part of me thinks this game will look like Mississippi State last year.

38-10 Dawgs. Not particularly close. Game has the makings of a bloodbath.

I think 31-17 is realistic. Especially if we find success running the ball early in the game

35-21... 21-14 Dawgs at half, make "O" & "D" adjustments at the 1/2 and pull away in 2nd half...

31-10. Close to a rout but not quite.

Wait im confused. So every single one of us expects to cover the spread with ease?

I do. When you start trying to assemble the reasons why SC keeps it close or wins, it all turns into stuff about the stadium, sandstorm, "never play well in Columbia".

Game is sandwiched between two cupcakes for us. Their players, alums, and the national media have been generously providing bulletin board material.

Finally, everyone seems to be assuming that sc will have this dynamic offense. It is still a Muschamp team. They have some holes on the OL. I expect them to be average in y to me of offensive efficiency.

I hope not, there D is no where near ND's and we have way too many options on O and a monster line. Not to mention that was Fromm's first start. We need to put up 34 points or more.

38-14

It does seem like many people have been predicting this upset for months now. I know there is some confirmation bias on my end, but it feels as if we are underdogs when listening to media coverage leading up to the game.

If Kirby is the coach we think he is, he will have the team ready to go. This is the exact situation where Richt would predictably lose.

I'm thinking a one score game at the half. Something to the effect of 21-14.

Once we get into the 2nd half, the separation really becomes apparent and I think we win by at least 14.

35-17 Dawgs

48-16. They get only 1 TD on 4 redzone trips. Bend but don't break. Kirby sends a message to the rest of the SEC.

UGA - 45
USC - 17

Not sure why but my gut is telling me we mash them.

We intercept their first pass and blow them out 41-0 in their own stadium On Monday all the talkers say Carolina sucks and Georgia hasn’t been tested yet.
