Amen !! Totally Agree !!
This year we are no longer the DAWGS, but, rather, the UNDERDAWGS! Let that put fire in the belly of every UNDERDAWG player who takes the field this season! Show everyone what an UNDERDAWG is capable of. Bite through their britches and make 'em need stitches! GO UNDERDAWGS!!!
I remember when Lou Holtz would always pick ND and SC to do well, and I always felt the same way as Pollick.
As far as Pollick's not putting GA in his top 4, I have no problem with it. I do believe the defense will take a step or two back, especially early in the year. Pollock still has GA winning the East and with a chance at winning the SECCG.
Losing the most talent of likely any team in history is going to show up. But I still feel that the Dawgs can win it all.
Just like in any year it will take some good luck. The offense must play up to their potential and avoid too many injuries to key players. By the end of the season, I think the defense will be playing top10 ball.
Get back to the SECCG and the rest is possible. GOOOODAWGS!
LOL...I always knew Pollack was a butt sniffer. Got to get in those brownie points, so he can move up the ESPN ladder. ESPN doesn't abide by SEC Homer's, unless they're from BAMA, LSU, FLA or AUB. Don't think you'll ever catch Tebow picking against FLA, unbegrudgingly. You can bet one thing...Aaron Murray and David Pollack have NEVER given their Alma Mater more than their due. In fact...it's always "less than".
Now, Matt Stinchcolm is another animal. He calls it like he sees it. Whether it's for or against his Dawgs, it's not emotional and there is impeccable reasoning behind it. There's no way Pollack can justify being one of the few Sports Media Correspondents not to have UGA in the CFP. Who is he trying to impress? Maybe he wanted to do an exclusive interview with one the Dawgs and Smart insulted him when he told him to get in line or "pack sand". LOL
There's no way in Hell's bathroom that a College Football enthusiast, former player, coach, expert or casual observer, can look at the teams playing this year, and NOT give UGA serious consideration, yet have Alabama #1 and skating into the CFP.
Lucky for the Dawgs and unfortunately for The Tide, that's something that will playout on the football field and not in the polling booth. The question I have, is...will anybody be held accountable for their obviously irresponsible and biased predictions at the end of the season? Is anybody keeping up with some of these absurd predictions? LOL. Just askin.
The predicted favorite to win the Kentucky Derby has won 51 out 146 races. The sportscasters are all submitting semi-educated guesses. However, our passionate semi-educated guesses carry much more weight and in some cases, we will fight you. Lol All I know for sure is we have Kirby Smart and they don't. GO DAWGS!
So much to respond to:
1) The “architect” of ANY defense being run at UGA resides in Athens. Even the most boot reporter on the air knows that.
2) Who does he have UGA losing to in the regular season then
3) “…there is a chance UGA can do what the Tide did last season and win the league title but lose in the playoff.” 🤔
4) Desmond Howard needs to lay off the pipe.
The only person who really seems to do his homework is Stinch. The rest are trying to make a stir. Well, you did David. And now I’ll ignore your opinion and show like I have every year for the past 10 years. ESPN is woke and sucks big time.
CKS and the Football program he has built are being gravely underestimated even at #3. I will make my Boone and Crockett comparison again. It takes 6 years for a program/buck to fully mature to championship status and CKS will continue to have the team battling year to year. This was not a one and done, all the stars align season. It was a season of drastic changes and adaptations. CKS and the program are over the mental hump and know how to do it again because he’s done it before.
Why so much angst over what Pollack said? He gets paid to give his opinion, and he gave it. We don't have to agree with it. But, in all honesty, he was the only one of the four ESPN Game Day hosts last year to not only correctly pick that UGA would be National Champions (Corso also predicted it), but he said that Georgia would lose to Alabama in the SECCG and then defeat them in the NCG. So his opinions aren't totally null and void. We'll all find out soon enough, so chill. Go Dawgs!
so Utah our Clemson will take our spot? Interesting. So let's pack it up now and avoid the pain.
You would think, that with all of Pollacks connections with UGA, he'd be extremely knowledgeable about the returning talent as well as the upcoming talent the Dawgs will present in the 2022 season. This team is far stronger than last year's team and will repeat as NC.....also look for SB IV to be nominated for Heisman.....just goes to prove, Pollack is no better than any other gut opinion supported by absolutely no factual basis.
Pollack objective? Maybe. Arrogant? Oh yeah! 😴
Does Desmond Howard not know what happens to teams when they play an angry AL team? It's never pretty.
