    Jon Stinchcomb likes UGA's chances with its disciplined defense against FL. Ok. Good to be positive..but it is still apples to oranges with QBs Fromm and Bennett. Five interceptions in two games. Turnovers. Good thing we were better than KY as a team. Not so with FL. Florida is much better than KY and not as good as Bama. Pretty much where UGA is. Trask and Smith are the difference for FL. The Gator duo. Have to stop Smith and contain Trask...big task. Have written so much on this...now we await the Saturday outcome. GO DAWGS!!!

    Fantastic point Brandon: WHY does Georgia make offense look SO hard?

    Can you imagine Clemson, Bama, or Ohio State going with the KY game plan in any of their games? Where is Kirby's 'dynamic' offense?

    Is Kirby planning on using the same ground-and-pound offensive strategy in order to simply try and keep Trask off the field? That to me sounds like you are simply playing not to lose instead of aggressively attacking the opposing defense...probably because we honestly don't have the weapons we need...

    ...OR has Kirby been 'hiding' his true intentions against Florida (as Mark Bradley put it on Sunday...is Kirby playing 'Possum'?) all along. We'll see.

    I'm not worried about our defensive injuries. We have plenty of depth. Yes, conditioning may certainly be a problem. Another reason we'd better be able to score...and possibly score a LOT.

    And yes, Dan Mullen is a dufus. And no, we can't lose to this guy...

    GO DAWGS!!

    Could've taken our lumps and developed a qb by now. Still would've lost to Bama but now, Kirby wants to go this whole season with Stetson. I love the kid and his heart but he's not scaring anyone with his arm or his feet. Sad waste of a great D.

    Great Brandon. UGA fans, especially those who comment on this site, are only fueled by emotion and aren't thinking as clearly as Brandon Adams is. Thanks. That's quite condescending. Many of the people (I don't call them "fans" in the way you do) on this site know at least as much as you do about football in general and even UGA football. So fine, offer up your opinion. But putting it on a "we in the know, unlike the rubes out there" basis? Maybe rethink that. Or just put it in a place we generally only discuss with our proctologist.

    Programs like Alabama, OSU, and Clemson as of recent, always seem to reload at the QB position. In fact, it is one of the primary reasons Clemson has gone from good to great over the past several years. And, they have another good one behind Trevor Lawrence waiting in the wings.

    Why UGA has trouble consistently finding elite signal callers in beyond me. Even during Richt's tenure, an offensive minded coach, we had years where the QB position was lack luster at best.

    With regard to Kirby, either we can't recruit the elite QBs or we are not able to develop or manage them i.e. Justin Fields. Hopefully, I'm wrong and that we have an elite QB currently on the roster that is waiting to flourish.

    Kirby does not have a strategy for developing QBs, and 2020 is the second time we have paid for that. The first time was Justin Fields. Kirby should have given significant playing time to Fields and should have demonstrated that Fields could compete for the starting job in 2019. That did not happen so Fields left.

    In 2020 Kirby indicated there would be competition during the bye week, but only Stetson took reps with the first team. I don't see that as competition.

    I wonder if Brock Vandergrift has noticed this. Would't be surprised if he left too.
