Re: CFP committee cites ‘struggling’ Georgia offense for Bulldogs drop from projected 12-team field
I think CFP rankings are the least of our worries. I would not be surprised if we lose by double digits to Tenn and could well lose to Tech as well. The team is just not as good this year as the teams we’ve grown to love over the last several years. We haven’t put together a complete win (TT excepted) yet this year. Even good wins over Clemson and Texas they were far from complete games. I remember watching in recent years how our QB could sit and take a nap in the pocket, protection was so good. Then he could find open receivers who would almost always make the catches, spectacular and routine. We had a lock-down corner who could take out the teams’ best receivers along with safeties who could cover as well as tackle in run support. The defense front seven could get home to pressure or sack opposing QBs, and the run defense was obviously a brick wall. There were games that I was nervous about, but I always felt we would do something to pull it out in the close ones. This year, I haven’t had that confidence going into any game. I’m not gonna bemoan coaching, NIL/TP or player skill, but just as not every Heisman winner or All-American makes it in the league, not every 4 or 5 star will make it in college. Our pool of that talent this year, be it due to injury, discipline or whatever else, just isn’t there.

Re: Georgia football plummets in latest College Football Playoff rankings, drops out of at-large
I made this prediction two years ago, and the facts have become clear. The Georgia offense is struggling primarily due to the O.C. I was assailed multiple times back then by many Dawg fans, but the results are now clearly in so far as I am concerned. Those in denial are now weeping in the hedges.

Re: Need some help.....
I no longer read Connor Riley's work. To me it is mostly a "reporting" of things already mentioned and quoted elsewhere. I quit listening to BA a couple of years ago. I know he's a fan but he seems to "juvenile" about it IMO. His questioning of guests doesn't really help me learn much. I still look at Mike Griffith's articles - at least they are relatively short and his writing skills surpass those of Riley and, hence, are easier to read. To put it more simply, I learn a whole heck of a lot more by reading the forum and thinking about what folks say here. Much better investment of the rapidly decreasing amount of time I have left on this planet.

Re: Georgia football plummets in latest College Football Playoff rankings, drops out of at-large
You know, one of my earliest memories of UGA football is our dawgs losing to Wake Forest in 1979. Since then I believe it's safe to say that the expectation of success has never been higher with the UGA football program outside of a few years that involved a fellow named Hershel. Kirby is a DGD and I believe in him.
