what game scares you the most for 2018?

I mean, besides Bama in Atlanta (again)
to me; our most dangerous game is USCe - Cocks will be much improved and Muschamp is seriously underrated as coach/motivator (I think he got a bad wrap at UF)
plus, 2nd game of the season & this will be their "super bowl"
WB Stadium is always a tough venue
after that, Aubie is the easy choice and GA Tech would be my #3
isn't LSU supposed to be down this year? not saying that is an easy game; but the Tigers don't look as formidable as they have been the last few years
this LOOKS like one of the easiest schedules we have had in years

South Carolina for two reason. One, because of when it is on the schedule. If we were playing them in the 6th or 7th game, I wouldn't worry so much. The second reason is they have played us tough, even in years we were way better.

Honestly, none of them. We don’t lose to the Burn east of the Chattahoochee and LSU will be a slightly more talented USCe.
We will coast to 12-0 and meet an undefeated Bama in Atlanta.

There are three stiff tests:
@USC
@LSU
vs Auburn
Outside of that, it's just about takin care of business as it presents itself.
The Carolina game scares me the most because all of our new starters will get baptized by fire with a veteran quarterback and a hostile environment.
I think the team that walks into Baton Rouge will be a much better team than the one that walks into Columbia, S.C.

Technically, UGA has lost 18 times in Athens and only 11 times in Auburn; all other losses were at neutral sites.
However I’m concerned more with USC in week 2 , also Mizzou in wk 4 I worry about Locke in a shootout with young DBs

The gap in premier talent that Kirby has created makes it easy to be confident. The one unknown, and shouldn’t be dismissed, is leadership. Who is going to be the vocal leader on defense?
With Fromm behind the wheel, with arguably the best O-Line in the SEC, we should be fine on offense. Inevitably, UGA will play a few close regular season games. After last year, they better be ready for opposing teams to take their best shot. Columbia x2 could be trap games. Baton Rouge is no slouch. If UGA can make it to the SECCG at 11-1 or maybe even 10-2, we’d be playing for another shot.

We will lose 2 out of the 4 below and still make Atlanta and if we win the SECCG, we still go to the playoffs....
USC
LSU
FLA
AUB
USC
LSU
FLA

Lose 2 and we probably miss the playoffs. Won’t have enough big wins.

The thing with USCe is that UGA should be able to bully them pretty good up front on both sides of the ball.

Their defense will be top notch, but they still have no QB and Brossette is their only RB. he has not gotten a lot of reps, but he could still break through and be a good one. It will be a tough game because of their defense and the game being at LSU.
South Carolina concerns me since it is early and at South Carolina.
Auburn? It's hard to say. Gut tells me it will be tough. But they lost 4/5 starters along the OLine and Stidham does not hold up well when pressured. They also won't have a lot of depth at RB. The new kid they signed looks good if Gus doesn't run him into the ground, which is probably since we have them late. Auburn's defense will be one of the best we face.

Yep. OOC schedule isn't good enough this year to get there with two losses unless everyone else just implodes.

I am worried about the NCG. Whoever we end up playing is going to be tough. I just hope we don't play Bama in the SECCG and NCG.

We have beat them by double digits the last 2 years. I am not that worried about their team.
A bit more about LSU, but still not that worried.
Just Bama in the SEC title game.

Auburn - Their Defense will be strong again with the return of Davidson, Russell, Brown, and Atkinson. That is on par with what Clemson is returning.

Auburn.
LSU kind of worries me being on the road, but their offense isn't scary and their secondary is razor thin. Their front 7 is very good but it won't be enough

I’m scared theyre going to schedule our cupcake season opener for 6:30 in the evening like they did last year.
I know it’ll be hot, boo f’n hoo, but cupcake games should be played at noon. Especially for a season opener.
I don’t want to miss all the best opening-weekend facemelter matchups again because espn wants Austin-Pea vs Dawgs for SEC network alternate channel C prime time.
We deserve better than this. Please let us deal with Austin Pea at noon so we can enjoy the other games throughput the opening day unencumbered. Thanks.
