TCU coach Sonny Dykes braces for Georgia ‘playmakers,’ respects Todd Monken
LOS ANGELES — TCU coach Sonny Dykes is no stranger to offensive football shootouts, and he sounds braced for another against Georgia.
Comments
“You can’t go into a game and just say, okay, if we take this guy away then they’re going to have problems,” Dykes said. “That’s not the case with their offense.”
Sonny's right. UGA is loaded with playmakers, and they all have the potential to have a career game against TCU. Even if they haven't had a standout performance up to this point, guys like Blaylock, Jacksaint, and Bell could be a real problem for the Horned Frogs. That's in addition to the usual suspects like McIntosh, McConkey and Bowers. If the Dawgs show up focused and ready to execute the game plan, The Frogs will have their hands full.
GO DAWGS!
Good article! So many Georgia players deserve praise. Last year’s defense was one for the ages, but is this year’s squad the best Georgia team ever overall? 🤔
Love the last jab at the bottom mike. All about the offense, and then stick the betting map at the bottom, with no mention or word on it. Of course all those guys don't want UGA to win. Nobody wants anyone to repeat, especially a team from the SEC. Just the nature of college football.
One edit, McIntosh has receiving yards, not passing yards.
Two states who currently have teams in the SEC are pulling for TCU. Alabama (no surprise) and Arkansas.
And of course ohio is pulling for TCU, lol.
Yep. Michigan for UGA
Well, the dawgs proved the experts wrong last year that voted the Michigan OL for the Joe Moore Award - I guess the dawgs will have to prove on Monday night that the award to TCU offensive coordinator Garrett Riley for top assistant coach and Coach of the Year for Sonny Dykes was wrong too. Monken and Smart should have gotten those awards and will prove it in the natty. GO DAWGS!
Speaking of playmakers....we REALLY need Washington to be healthy enough to play Monday. Due to my concerns around TCU's very schematic and disguised defensive formations against the pass and Stet's potential to make bad decisions, I think we will end up trying to run the ball more than you might expect. Washington is a key cog in our running attack and is a very important blocker.
@GoodtimeDawg
No, still believe that the Joe Moore Award was legitimate because Georgia hasn't had a dominant running game since 2018. And even if Georgia wins the playoff, they will have used a ton of 4 and 5 star recruits that Kirby Smart has personally developed to do it. Meanwhile TCU went from 5-7 to the title game in one season with a new coaching staff, a bunch of recruiting classes that were in the 50s and with 14 guys from the transfer portal, all of whom are contributing. There is no way that it can be said that Smart and Monken did a better job this year than Dykes and Riley. Give Dykes and Riley UGA's players and they are in the same spot. Give Smart and Monken TCU's players and ... well you remember 2020 don't you? The year UGA barely finished 2nd in the SEC East?
I would have to say that Tennessee may be pulling for the Dawgs, Knoxville is not. To many clowns around here worship at the feet of Ainge. Oh well. Please Dawgs, make these orange (atleast the one) clown regret it.
GO DAWGS!!!!!!
